In my mind this seems to be a sort of lemon-y creamy tea. It’s certainly lemon but it’s more of a spicy lemon than creamy. But then again, I could be completely off base for what lemon balm infusion means, so perhaps take this with a grain of salt.
Thanks cteresa for sending me this to try out!

Glad you found it interesting, it´s non caffeine and non hibiscus but not too wimpy.
There is no base, this is 100% leaves of a certain herb. Lemon balm is just the name in english, no real lemons involved at all. In Portuguese it is called cidreira (which now I think of it might be related to this distant relative of the lemon), and the real name is melissa officinalis.
It´s difficult to compare to other herbs, but well now you had those, you can compare.
ah, found it on wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melissa_officinalis
It was interesting! Thanks again :)
