lemongrass

(22 reviews)
A native of Southeast Asia, Lemongrass was introduced to the American palate with the growing popularity of Thai cuisine. It has a delicate Meyer lemon taste, with slight hint of sweet ginger, and very aromatic floral fragrance. Smooth and fragrant when steeped as a simple cup of tea, soft mouthfeel and clean finish. Greatly uplifting, yet naturally caffeine free. Steep at 212°F for 5-10 minutes

A nice cup of sunshine to sip any time of day! The lemongrass leaves are bright green with a strong, refreshing aroma. The tea steeps to the palest yellow, but there is nothing pale about its flavor! The flavor is bright and citrusy, without the tartness of lemon. No sweetener is needed, but a drop of honey turns the cup into a liquid lemon drop. This tea stands up to multiple infusions. It would be nice for accenting other teas, when you want a bit of lemon flavor.

It’s ok. Nothing to rave about. Not very lemony. Needs something else. Probably a good sick tea.

It's lemongrass. Lemony with a bit of natural sweetness. I love the smell of it dry or steeped. One of the best things about it is it's versatility! Good on its own, and in blends. Great hot or iced. Of course it goes well with sugar, but it also plays nice with milk

Lemongrass isn't my thing - I really prefer real lemon/lemon flavor. It's not the worst, but I feel that this herb is included in so many teas to give it a lemony flavor that it gives things a very "generic herbal" taste.

A lovely lemongrass. So bright and lemony, just the way I like it. It's also pretty useful in the kitchen, and is wonderful with some lavender.

Did 212 F for about 15-20 minutes. So it was pretty strong for me. Pretty strong lemon flavor. Just what you'd expect from lemongrass

This is a super mild tea. It's lemon, but not overwhelmingly so. No savory at all, not grassy. Just mildly lemon.

I love lemon tea so I knew this was going to be a little ray of sunshine on a cold winter day! Pleasant sip!

Delicious tisane with a strong lemon aroma and wonderful, naturally sweet lemon flavor. No bitterness or savory tastes. Just a nice lemon cup.

I really like this tea. It is good by itself. It is also good mixed with green or ginger tea.

Good tea for a cold day or when you're sick, helps clear your ingestion and warm your belly

A light and lovely herbal, the smell reminds me of fruit loops. Combines well with other teas too to give a bit of a lemon kick.

This can stand by itself or mixed in blends. Perfect for those under-the-weather days

This is a good tea to have as a base for other flavors. It's simple and light and is nice on its own, but it's much better blended with other teas that may need a bit more of a lemony flavor.

This is a very fresh lemon grass tea. That being said, I don't think lemon grass works well on its own, as it as such a subtle flavor. Its great in blends, but doesn't have enough weight to stand as its own tea
