Sugar Leaf - Should I dry it out or put it straight into the freezer

Hi,

title says it all. I'm doing a manicure on my harvest and am building up a good pile of pretty frosty sugar leaf. I'm planning on doing a cold iso wash with it - should it be dried out when I do that or is it ok to just freeze it wet?

I get lots of sugar leaf & air dry, then de-carbolize, weigh in 2 oz. bags & put in freezer- currently making cold soak(with everclear) tincture-stats in freezer with daily mixing for 5+ days, then strain and cook down(concentrate) alcohol-works well
