Infusion

Tea
This is probably the simplest.

Decoction

This takes more planning as you need to soak it Tuesday night, but you'll access more nutrients from the plant.

Ointment

You can also use a base cream instead of vaseline. This would be more of a cosmetic approach.

Syrup

Usually syrups are used with kids.

Tincture

Be careful. I would use this method to access the herb's nutrients for use on your skin ... like with creams or ointments. Instead of alcohol, you can use oils too.

Poultice

This is pretty easy too.

Inhaler

Know what you're inhaling and the strength. Putting your face over some chilli pepper tea wouldn't be very pleasant.

Roll a die

You've all done this.
