Here’s a soothing tonic for stressful times. Carmelite Water or Eau de Mélisse, has been used since the Middle Ages to settle nerves.
Here’s how to make a simplified version using readily available ingredients:
- Two cups white wine
- One cup lemon balm leaves
- Zest of one lemon
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
