I made this today and it’s yummy. I quadrupled the amount of herbs and steeped for 20 minutes. I also doubled the amount of water and sugar (essentially doubled the recipe with 4x the herbs). The lemon verbena and the mint are both strong herbs (I used peppermint), and want to dominate the other flavors. Easy enough to adjust to your liking.
I love all of your ideas, thank you for your comment!
