With all this fuss about using our infusions, the idea arose, why not add a bit of lemon verbena syrup? To see how it tasted?
Well, you really must try it for yourself, but I would compare it (in some ways) to a chai latte. Definitely herbal. With a hint of citrus. And a lovely aroma.
I'm pleased to report that the last few chapters of The Hummingbird's Daughter (Urrea) were greatly sweetened by a cup of this fantastic infusion.

I was just kind of surfing around at randomn today to avoid housework and came across your blog. I LOVE it! Thankyou for sharing so much great information and interesting recipes. I have lemon verbena this year and was wondering this morning about different things I could do with it. I enjoyed your blog so much I'm linking it as a fave!
Now that looks good!
Sounds amazing, I don't think I would have ever paired those up. Nice one.
this looks delicious- but i may try the syrup for a summery iced tea instead of coffee. i bet it would work beautifully.
thanks for the recipe.
