Light, refreshing and very easy to make! I have so much lemon verbena (and mint) growing in the herb garden right now and this recipe makes good use of it. For mineral water I substituted filtered water. Local clover honey, too. Thanks for posting. cg

A wonderfully light and refreshing drink--perfect for a sultry summer's afternoon! Made using several bunches of fresh lemon verbena and mint from my garden, as well as my recipe #383209. Lovely! Thanks for sharing, Sandi! Made for the Magic of Herbs 2010 event in the photos forum.
