Lemon Grass Tea

Has anyone heard of lemon grass? It's a plant that can be used for many things, including tea. George's mom makes the best tea. It tastes just like Trix cereal. The tea I buy at the store tastes so different so I thought she must use a special kind. While I was in Kakamega, Charles made tea that tasted exactly like Trix too! Before he made it, he went to the garden to pick some lemon grass to add to the tea. However, I didn't make the connection to lemon grass and the Trix flavor. Once I tasted it, I know George's mom must use that too.

To make lemon grass tea, boil 500 ml of milk, 150 ml of water with 1 tbsp Kenya tea leaves and a handful of washed lemon grass. Once boiled, pour it through a mesh strainer, add sugar to taste (1 use two spoonfuls for one mug of tea) and enjoy!
