Lemon Balm needs to be harvested again and if you grow it in is often hard to find different ways to use it, but I have many, so check out this link to a search of all the recipes I have posted using Lemon Balm. But for now try thisd great tea blend with lemon flavors and a hint of clove for a seasonal twist.
Lemon Spice Tea
- 1 cup lemon balm
- 1/2 cup lemn grass, chopped
- 1/2 cup peppermint
- 1/4 cup whole cloves
- 3 teaspoons slivered lemon peel
Combine herbs and lemon peel in a glass jar with a tight fitting lid and shake well. Enjoy 1 tsp per cup of hot water and steep 5 to 7 minutes. Color will be light.
If using fresh herbs chop the herbs evenly to a uniform size and use 1 Tablespoon per cup of hot water. Steeping 5 to 7 minutes. Don't make this as a sun tea, but it is good cold.
