Lemon Verbena Tea

Lemon Verbena Tea

Have you ever smelled lemon verbena? It’s heavenly. I crushed a few leaves while I was making Lemon Verbena Tea, had Cooper take a whiff and asked him if he could smell green skittles too. 

“Mom! Green skittles are GREEN APPLE, not LIME!

Turns out there haven’t been lime Skittles since 2013 (WHAT??!). They might be coming back for a special edition. I’m not sure. Life is weird. 

My friend Emma made me some Lemon Verbena Tea when we had a distanced hang out. 

I FELL IN LOVE WITH IT!

It prompted me to get my own plant when I went to visit my brother in LA. 

She’s thriving!  I have her labeled and everything! 

She’s providing! 

Lemon Verbena Tea

If you’re also trying to drink more water, this Lemon Verbena Tea might be the answer you’re looking for!  I like drinking it ice cold. 

It’s a lemon/lime/floral lovefest. You should totally try some!
