I have never tried straight lemon grass before. Who knew it had a ginger note to the dry scent? Steeped up for 5 minutes, it makes a sunny yellow cup. Its spring in a cup. The aroma is as expected, quite lemony. What I didn’t expect was how pleasant lemon grass would taste all on its own.
Since this is decaf my wife had to try it. I thought it strange because she claims to hate lemons. She says lemongrass is different. Whaaat? ;) All I know is she claimed the rest of the bag for her very own.

(It’s like when my husband says he doesn’t like flavoured tea, but then drinks Earl Grey! Whaaaa!? lol)…
This sounds really interesting. :)
Haha. Don’t tell him otherwise – unless he is pilfering yours.
Ha! That’s hilarious!
I wonder if you can cook Thai food with this.
I wondered if you could make lemon cookies. Since my wife loves to make cookies and hates lemons, it could work out well for me ;)
Looks like you’re all set, KS. :D
