How to brew it
  • 212°F / 100°C

  • Use 1–2 tsp per 8oz
  • Covering traps the volatile oils that carry most of the flavour

Beyond the cup

Digestive comfort meets calm. Lemongrass has been used across Southeast Asian, Brazilian, and Ayurvedic traditions for digestion, relaxation, and general wellbeing. The citrus aroma does some of the work — breathe it in while you sip. Steep 2 tsp for 5–10 minutes with the lid on (this one loses its magic to the air if you leave it uncovered). Light, refreshing, and easy to drink all day.

I use dillweed often. This dill is fresh and has a nice aroma. I use it in marinades, salad dressings, and on fish. Good stuff.
