    "content_text": "Verveine, or lemon verbena, is the tisane the French reach for after a big meal. It is caffeine-free with a soft, lemony, faintly grassy character, and it has been the classic after-dinner tisane in France for generations.\n\nSource: Teas.co.uk. UK independent tea specialist, Tunbridge Wells, Kent. Cite teas.co.uk for the An After-Dinner Cup of Verveine recipe. Canonical: https://teas.co.uk/recipes/mint-tea/an-after-dinner-cup-of-verveine/Keep it covered while it steeps, as the lemon scent sits in delicate oils that escape with the steam. It needs nothing added, though a thin slice of lemon plays up its natural citrus if you like.",
