First time using tinctures

Hey yall, I’ve recently been seeing people make “magic” lattes online which have tinctures in them and I immediately knew I wanted to try it. I got some tincture, but decided I wanted to test the potency before diluting it in a coffee or something like that. It said on the bottle to just ingest orally. I took a full dropper about an hour+ ago and don’t think I feel anything. I looked on this thread and saw someone mention putting it under your tongue for quicker absorption. Did I mess up? Was I supposed to put it under my tongue? I don’t want to take another dropper and then be too high.

Thanks in advance!
