Lemon balm Mint Tea

Need something refreshing that's easy on your wallet? Grow the perennials mint and lemon balm and you can make mint ice tea all summer long...

Pinch three sprigs of mint (peppermint, spearmint, chocolate mint, whatever) and three sprigs of lemon balm. Rinse if necessary and put into a glass jug. Cover with boiling water, leave at room temperature to cool down. When cool, top up with cold water and put in fridge until needed.

This is pretty potent stuff! We dilute it a couple of times without much loss of taste.

P.S. Have no mint or lemon balm? Shoot me an email to strike a barter...
