Lime scented geranium tea
This was the first one I decided to have a go at. I had never heard of scented geraniums before I found this at the garden centre a few months back and wow, what amazing fragrances they have.
The citrus varieties are good for making teas, adding to vinegar or adding to a variety of cosmetic recipes.
So, I brewed up a pot this afternoon (about 1 tablespoon of chopped up leaves steeped in boiling water for a few minutes) when I felt the need for a hot drink. It wasn't too bad, certainly refreshing and one I will drink again.

Scented Geraniums are just wonderful; try a different scent, like the one from Pelargonium Radens (Skeleton Rose) ... and you'll be amazed.
Happily living with scented pelargoniums since I've discover them, couple of years ago.
