    Mixing Adventures: It's my favorite dessert herb. I hope you've found lots of other nice things to do with your prunings!

    I have hesitated to make this, despite having it recommended to me, because I just couldn't imagine lemon verbena in icecream! But I'm so glad I took the plunge and gave it a try, as it's amazing!! My daughter said it tastes like a mojito! Thanks so much for sharing. I am sad to think of all the lemon verbena prunings I have thrown away when it could have been turned into this delicious treat.
