Lemon balm iced tea from Quebec

Les Mauvaises Herbes

Lemon balm naturally has a little lemony taste that we love. Fresh, it downright tastes like lemon pie. Yummmm. Plus, it's known for its cooling effect in heat waves or intense heat. A must for your next picnic in the park! Infused with your favorite black or green tea, it'll give you a drink that's anything but ordinary!

Lemon balm is a calming plant that helps stabilize mood and chase away anxiety and low mood, and makes falling asleep easier. It aids digestion and soothes digestive tract spasms. It's suitable for children and can be consumed during pregnancy.
