Verbena Lemon Tea

Since my verbena is growing fast and has plenty of healthy leaves I decided it is time to make a tea out of it.


Simple Lemon Verbena Tea Recipe
Ingredients
  • 1 cup fresh Lemon Verbena leaves
  • 1 quart Water
Instruction
  • Take a pan and boil the water.
  • Remove from heat and toss in Lemon Verbena leaves.
  • Cover it with a lid and allow it to steep for about 5 minutes.
  • Cool for some time, and then strain the tea and serve. source: http://lifestyle.iloveindia.com
