 Lavender + Lemon Balm Popsicles #RecipeinBloom

These herbal popsicles are easy to make and especially delicious on a hot day!

Ingredients

  • 4 cups water
  • 5-6 whole fresh lavender blossoms
  • 1 small handful fresh lemon balm
  • Lemon Verbena Elixer
  • Lemon Zest (J’s addition)
  • 2-4 tbsp honey

Instructions

Bring the water to a boil, then pour over the lavender and lemon balm in a quart sized jar.

Steep the tea for 10-15 minutes, then strain out the herbs with a fine mesh sieve and stir in the honey to your desired sweetness. Do not steep longer - the lavender will become bitter

Let the tea cool down a bit (you can add a few ice cubes if you're impatient like me), then pour it into a popsicle mold. Freeze for several hours or overnight.

These Flower based Popsicles have a secret meaning- can you discover it?

What is the meaning behind Lavender, Lemon Balm and Lemon Verbena???

Lavender - distrust

Lemon Balm - sympathy

Lemon Verbena 

Notes for additional information:
