[1] [3] Common names include lemon beebalm, [4] [2] lemon mint (this may also apply to Eau de Cologne mint or Melissa officinalis) and purple horsemint. When crushed, the leaves emit an odor reminiscent of lemons. This odor is sometimes described as more resembling oregano, especially late in the season. Its purple flowers are highly attractive to butterflies, bees and hummingbirds. [5] Description [ edit ] If you reduce lemon juice, the raw smell of mint will be dominating.

I made this last night for a dinner party and everyone loved it. I had about 1 3/4 c lemon juice, 2 c mint leaves (that was all I could squeeze out of my herb garden), and 3/4 c sugar. Instead of still water I mixed it with sparkling water and added tequila for those who wanted it. It was very tasty. I will say that it doesn’t look as pretty if you make it ahead of time and let it sit. I made it in the early afternoon and kept it in the fridge, and by evening it was not nearly as bright green. Probably better to do fresh if presentation is important. Since this is consumed raw, make sure to wash the mint leaves well. First, wash well in running water by holding the stem part in the bunch.
