Description

Melissa officinalis, also known as Lemon Balm, is a herb that is very closely related to mint. In fact, both Lemon Balm and mint are part of the same family known as the Lamiaceae family. Unlike mint, Lemon Balm does not contain significant amounts of menthol as is common is most mint species. Instead, Lemon Balm contains a large amount of rosmarinic acid, which as the name may have already given away, is also found in rosemary!  

Uses

Lemon Balm extract has a multitude of uses. As alluded to above, Lemon Balm is used in food and drink preparation. The leaves of Lemon Balm have a lush and vibrant lemony taste that is somewhat reminiscent of tea. Thus, it may not come as a surprise that one of the most common uses for Lemon Balm is to use it to make Lemon Balm tea.
