What are Lemon Balm Tea Bags?

Lemon Balm Tea Bags are Melissa officinalis leaf in 25 tea bags. Lemon balm tea is lemony without any of the sourness of actual lemon, a soft citrus aroma from a mint-family herb.

About Lemon Balm

The botanical name comes from the Greek for honey bee: beekeepers have long planted lemon balm near hives, and the crushed leaf smells of lemon and honey. Caffeine-free, and mild enough to drink at any hour.

How to brew Lemon Balm Tea Bags

Use one tea bag per cup. Pour hot water over the bag and steep to taste, then lift the bag out. See the brewing chart below for the water temperature and steep time we suggest for this style. Each pouch holds 25 tea bags (net wt 2 oz (57 g)), and the bags are unbleached paper with no staples, strings, or tags.
