THINK SPRING!
Lemon Verbena is part of the Verbenaceae family and native to Chile and Peru. It is known to be one of the stronger scented lemon herbs. Apparently the scent is so moving , writers have written poetry inspired by its essence. Interestingly enough, it has also been widely used as an herbal flavoring to replace oregano, particularly in protein dishes.
Medicinally, Lemon Verbena has been used to help reduce inflammation. It is known to also help boost the immune system and improve joint function. Most commonly, it is known to be used to help improve sleep and anxiety. It is also known to help aide in digestion
We love to use Lemon Verbena in herbal sachets to help promote stress relief and relaxation. It's an amazing herb to add to any tea blend. And it can also be incorporated into baked goods for a delicious lemon flavor!
