I'd bought this two years ago for 10p stuck in the garden and it's grown well. At the time I didn't know what it was, but quite a useful herb, reduces blood pressure with strong anti-viral properies especially against herpes type viruses, which includes the common cold and chicken pox, therefore shingles.
2.25 litres young tips and leaves Lemon Balm
250g Sultanas (blended and simmered)
1 kg Sugar
2 tea bags
2 lemons juice only.
2 tsp citric acid
1 tsp nutrient
1 tsp Pectolase
Harris yeast
Steeped ( leaves boiling water over) for 4 hours in sealed container and strained over sugar, and then another ltr of boiling water over leaves and left for another 15mins and strained water into dj. Added lemon juice. Made cup of tea from remaining leaves, nice.
Blended sultanas, added boiling water and simmered, then into dj. Cooled down in water bath. Then added nutrients, citric and pectolase. Yeast Harris, not for any reason other than low foam and pack was open.
