About Lemon Balm

Lemon Balm (Melissa officinalis) can brighten up any kitchen herb garden or yard. This 3-foot-tall herbaceous perennial features lemon-scented leaves. Its delicate, white blossoms are filled to the brim with nectar that both humans and pollinating insects find irresistible.

Lemon Balm has been used for thousands of years to treat gastrointestinal problems, heart illness, sleeplessness, viral infections, muscle spasms, depression, and insomnia. Enhancing cognitive processes can aid with memory, focus, nervous weariness, and depressive mood.

• Tea: In hot water, fresh or dried lemon balm leaves are soaked for around 10-15 minutes to make tea.
• Salve Dried lemon balm leaves make a great anti-inflammatory salve when combined with olive oil and melted beeswax.
• Vinegar infusion: Dried lemon balm leaves can be soaked in apple cider vinegar for 3 to 6 weeks, shaking and adding vinegar during the period, to form lemon balm vinegar infusion.
