Another Honeycomb of Tea! (UPDATED)
Well, I was busy again over the weekend. I did not get much dried herbwise this season. Sooo I'm taking what I dried last season and I am making tea bags. Lemon Verbena Lady Blend II is made up of lemon verbena mostly, a little orange peel, orange mint and rose geranium. I had some last night and mostly got lemon verbena and rose geranium in the flavor. I'm going to have a second brew this afternoon or later this evening and maybe I'll have a different opinion. I'll let you know. UPDATE: I did have a second brew of the first tea bag and my opinion hasn't changed, mostly lemon verbena (a favorite) and rose geranium and the first time around there was a hint of orange mint. Because I have GERD (reflux disease) I shouldn't have too much mint! Mint and herbs are forever connected. It makes it tough when you want some in your tea blends. So I use one herb as a foundation and a couple of other herbs as extras or highlights.
