A simple lemon balm herbal tea made with fresh or dried leaves, lemon, and optional ginger or honey. Lemon balm itself has not been proven to cause weight loss or burn body fat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup fresh lemon balm leaves (or 1 tbsp dried)
  • 1 tsp freshly grated ginger (optional)
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 2 cups filtered water
  • 1 tsp raw honey (optional)

Instructions

  1. Bring 2 cups of filtered water to a boil in a pot or kettle.
  2. Place the lemon balm leaves and grated ginger, if using, in a teapot or tea infuser.
  3. Pour the hot water over the herbs, cover, and steep for 7–10 minutes.
  4. Strain the tea into a mug to remove the lemon balm leaves and ginger.
  5. Stir in the lemon juice and honey, if using.
  6. Serve warm.

Notes

  • Honey is optional and adds sugar and calories.
  • Use 1 tablespoon dried lemon balm if fresh leaves are unavailable.
  • Ginger and lemon are optional flavor additions.
  • Nutrition values are estimated per 1-cup serving with the optional honey and ginger included.
