The recipe for holy water that I have used in the past is as follows. I took it from the book "Exorcism: A Manual for Casting Out Evil Spirits" by Frank J. MacHovec.
-----
You will need:
- Salt
- Fresh water

Exorcist [EX]: Our help is in the name of the Lord
ALL: Who made Heaven and Earth
EX [over the salt]: God's creation, I cast out the demon from you by the living God. [make sign of cross over the salt] By the true God. [make sign of the cross]
By God who ordered you to be thrown into the waterspring by Eliseus to heal it of its barrenness. May you be a purified salt, a means of health for those who believe, a medicine for body and soul for all who make use of you. May all evil fancies of the foul fiend, his malice and cunning, be driven afar from the place where you are sprinkled. And let every unclean spirit be repulsed by Him who is coming to judge both the living and the dead and the world by fire.
ALL: Amen.
EX [over the water]: God's creation, water, I cast out the demon from you in the name of God the Father Almighty. [make sign of the cross over it] In the name of Jesus Christ. [make sign of the cross] His Son, our Lord, and in the power of the Holy Spirit. [make sign of the cross]
May you be a purified water, empowered to drive afar all power of the enemy; in fact, to root out and banish the enemy himself, along with his fallen angels. We ask this through the power of our Lord Jesus Christ, who is coming to judge the living and the dead and the world by fire.
ALL: Amen.
EX: Let us pray: O God, who for man's welfare established the most wonderful mysteries in the substance of water, hearken to our prayer and pour forth your blessing. [make sign of the cross] On this element now being prepared with various purifying rites. May this creation of yours, when used with your mysteries and endowed with your grace, serve to cast out demons and to banish disease. May everything that this water sprinkles in the homes and gatherings of the faithful be delivered from all that is unclean and hurtful; let no breath of contagation hover there, no taint of corruption; let all the wiles of the lurking enemy come to nothing. By the sprinkling of this water may everything opposed to safety and peace of the occupants of these homes be banished, so that in calling on your holy name they may know the well-being they desire, and be protected from every peril; through Christ, our Lord.
ALL: Amen.
EX: [pour salt into water in the form of the cross, once only, as you say] May this salt and water be mixed together in the name of the Father and of the Son and the Holy Spirit.
ALL: Amen.
EX: May the Lord be with you.
ALL: May He also be with you.
EX: Let us pray: God, source of irresistible might and king of an invincible realm, the everglorious conqueror; who restrains the force of the adversary, silences the uproar of his rage, and valiantly subdues his wickedness; in awe and humility we beg you, Lord, to regard with favor these creations of salt and water, to let the light of your kindness shine upon it, and to hallow it with the dew of your mercy, so that wherever it is sprinkled and your holy name is invoked, every assault of the unclean spirit may be baffled, and all dread of the serpent's venom be cast out. To us who entreat your mercy grant that the Holy Spirit may be with us wherever we may be, through Christ, our Lord.
ALL: Amen.
[Exorcist sprinkles self, those present, and the place]
