This lemon verbena tea, oh, it’s somethin’ else. You know, I been drinkin’ it for years. Good for what ails ya, I always say. And it smells so darn good! Like a whole lemon orchard in a cup.

My old bones ain’t what they used to be, but this lemon verbena tea helps. Helps me sleep like a baby, it does. And it’s good for the belly, too. If ya got a nervous stomach, this is the ticket.

How to make that lemon verbena tea

First, you gotta find some of that lemon verbena. If you ain’t got a plant, maybe a neighbor does. Just a few leaves is all ya need. Don’t go strippin’ the whole bush now!

• Get them lemon verbena leaves.
• Wash them leaves good. Don’t want no dirt in your tea.
• Put ’em in a big ol’ jug or somethin’.

Then you gotta boil some water. I use about two big scoops, like the kind you use for soup. Just pour that boilin’ water right over them leaves. Gotta let it sit there for a bit, maybe fifteen minutes or so. Let all that goodness seep out into the water.

When it’s done, you gotta fish out them leaves. We don’t want no leaves in our tea. Just the good stuff. You can drink it hot, or you can put some ice in it. Makes a nice cold drink on a hot day.

This here lemon verbena tea, it ain’t just for drinkin’, neither. I use it for all sorts of things. If I got a headache, I drink some. If I can’t sleep, I drink some. It’s good for just about everythin’!

Some folks say it makes ’em sleepy. Well, yeah, it might. That’s why it’s good for bedtime. Don’t go drinkin’ a whole pot and then tryin’ to drive your tractor or somethin’! And don’t mix it with them sleepin’ pills. Too much of a good thing, ya know?

My grandma, she used to make this tea all the time. She’d put a little honey in it sometimes. Said it was good for a sore throat. I don’t know about that, but it sure does taste good with a little somethin’ sweet in it.

I grow my own lemon verbena, right outside my kitchen door. It’s easy to grow, don’t need much care. Just some water and sunshine. And it smells so good when the wind blows. Keeps the mosquitoes away, too, they say.

Lemon verbena tea good for ya

This tea, it’s like a little bit of sunshine in a cup. Makes ya feel good all over. And it’s so easy to make. Even I can do it, and my hands ain’t what they used to be.

Now, I ain’t no doctor, but I know what works for me. And this lemon verbena tea, it works. It’s been around for a long time, and folks been drinkin’ it for years. Must be somethin’ to it, right?

If you’re feelin’ down, or tired, or just need somethin’ to warm ya up on a cold day, try this tea. It might just surprise ya. It’s like a hug from your grandma, all warm and cozy.

And it’s good for what ails ya. I swear by it. It helps me sleep, and that’s important when you get to be my age. You need your rest. And it settles my stomach, too. Sometimes I eat things I shouldn’t, and this tea helps calm things down.

I remember one time, I had a real bad headache. Nothin’ seemed to help. Then I made myself a cup of this lemon verbena tea, and wouldn’t you know it, that headache just melted away. Like magic, it was.

So, if you’re lookin’ for somethin’ natural, somethin’ good for ya, and somethin’ that tastes mighty fine, give this lemon verbena tea a try. You might just find yourself a new favorite drink. And it’s a whole lot cheaper than them fancy drinks at the store, that’s for sure!

I like to sit on my porch in the evenin’, sippin’ my tea, and watchin’ the sun go down. It’s peaceful, ya know? Just me, my tea, and the crickets chirpin’. It’s the simple things in life that are the best, I always say. You just need that lemon verbena tea.
