Organic Lemon Verbena

Lemon verbena leaves are used to add a lemony flavour to fish and poultry dishes, vegetable marinades, salad dressings, jams, puddings, and beverages. It also is used to make herbal teas and can make a refreshing sorbet.

As for scent there is not much other then a hint of lemon while smelling the final brew. The taste is somewhat like chamomile tea. You cant really taste the lemon while its on your tongue but as you wash it down it has a very pleasant aftertaste that leaves a lingering lemon flavor in the back of your throat and it lightly drifts into your nostrils as you drink. It is a dense tea, very sweet as well! So if your tired of drinking licorice tea for the sweetness this is a tea you may want to experiment with. It’s a pleasure to see its curly green leaves unfurl, this is relaxing in itself!

Verbena is believed to have digestive benefits and relaxing at the same time. Organic verbena herbal tea is made from whole verbena leaves which are known for their digestive properties.
