Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Lemon Verbena Syrup

    In a saucepan, combine the water and sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the sugar is dissolved.

  2. 2

    Add Lemon Verbena

    Once the sugar is dissolved, remove the saucepan from heat and add the lemon verbena leaves. Stir well.

  3. 3

    Steep

    Cover the saucepan and let the mixture steep for about 30 minutes to allow the flavors to infuse.

  4. 4

    Strain the Syrup

    After steeping, strain the syrup through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the leaves.

  5. 5

    Cool and Store

    Allow the syrup to cool completely before transferring it to a clean bottle. Store in the refrigerator.
