I received this recipe in my email this am & thought I'd pass it along. Sounds like a "cool" idea.
Lemon Balm
Hot water
Honey or sweetener of your choice.
Cut up enough Lemon Balm for two loosely packed cups of plant material or 4 tablespoons of dried lemon balm and add it to a half-gallon jar.
Fill the jar with boiling water, and let it steep for about 20 minutes.
Strain and add honey to taste. The recipe recommends 2 Tbsp
Pour into popsicle molds or into ice cube trays.
Freeze for a few hours and enjoy
Lemon Balm is soothing and calming. This recipe could possibly be used with other herbs if you know their properties. Any ideas?
