(Tea with Lemongrass)
Jump to recipe ↓
Lemongrass tea is the most refreshing tea that I have ever tasted. It has a nice lemony aroma and a unique fresh flavour. Recently my friend gifted me a pot of lemongrass and that's how I started making this tea. I love having this tea after a heavy meal or just on any tired day. You could add other flavourings like mint, honey, ginger etc. to the tea but today I would like to share the simple lemongrass tea recipe with you.
