[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 ] a b Tanzer JM (1995). "Xylitol chewing gum and dental caries".

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.
