Lemon Balm (Melissa officinalis)

Supports relaxation and mental calmness, helping to reduce stress and anxiety. Lemon balm can support the digestive system, and aid in a restful nights sleep when used regularly. It also contains antioxidant and anti inflammatory compounds that can help to fight free radicals and reduce inflammation.

Lemon balm pairs well with either Peppermint or Spearmint to make a refreshing drink. Try adding some Nettle for additional benefits! If you like you can add in a squeeze of local honey too.

Opting for loose dried herbs over mass-produced teabags allows for a richer, fresher flavour and the flexibility to tailor your infusions to suit your needs. Whether brewing a soothing tea or making a simple herbal ointment — loose herbs give you flexibility and optimal quality every time.

Use 1-2 tsp per cup of hot (not boiling) water. Steep for 5-10 minutes, covered. Add a little honey if you desire. Enjoy hot or cold!
