CASSIS (BLACKCURRANT) AND LEMON VERBENA TEA - TISANE - INFUSION
A lovely soothing and restorative tisane or tea that is made by steeping black currants and fresh lemon verbena leaves in boiling water, then strained and sweetened to taste with brown sugar or honey. I've used a bag of black currant tea in place of the black currant berries with lovely results, as it is difficult to source fresh or frozen black currants here in my town. Next time I may add a spoonful of currant jam to my tea (a la Russian style), as well. The tisane - tea may be served either hot, or chilled over ice. From 'Herbal Pleasures'. Black currants are very rich in many phytonutrients, antioxidants, vitamins, essential fatty acids and minerals. In particular, black currants are renowned for their high content in Vitamin C and potassium. They have been shown to have twice the potassium of bananas, four times the vitamin C of oranges, and twice the antioxidants of blueberries. Lemon verbena has traditionally been used to treat asthma, fever, colds, flatulence, stomach upset and diarrhea, and for its relaxing effects in teas.

Tips:
- To make the most flavorful tea, use fresh mint and melissa leaves. If you don't have fresh leaves, you can use dried leaves, but they will not be as flavorful.
- You can adjust the strength of the tea by using more or less leaves.
- For a sweeter tea, add a little honey or sugar to taste.
- You can also add other herbs, such as chamomile or lavender, to the tea for a more complex flavor.
- To make iced tea, brew the tea as usual and then let it cool completely before pouring it over ice.
Conclusion:
Fresh mint and melissa tea is a refreshing and flavorful beverage that is perfect for any occasion. It is also a good source of antioxidants and other nutrients. Whether you enjoy it hot or iced, this tea is sure to please everyone.
