Lemon balm just popped up on its own in our yard a few years ago (along with feverfew and sweet cicely), and I’ve been harvesting it heavily ever since. This infused vinegar is one of my favorites — it has the most wonderful fresh lemony scent that reminds me of Lemon Pledge from my childhood, only much better and completely natural!

Ingredients:

• Fresh lemon balm leaves and stems
• White vinegar (or apple cider vinegar)

Instructions:

1. Harvest fresh lemon balm and give it a gentle rinse if needed. Pat dry.
2. Fill a clean mason jar about ¾ full with the lemon balm.
3. Pour vinegar over the herbs until the jar is completely full, making sure all the leaves are submerged.
