Bee Balm

[Nyboy]

I read somewhere bee balm is in the mint family. Can I use it in drinks?

It can be used as a medicinal tea and the flowers as an edible garnish.

Just thought I'd add that I've kept mine from being invasive just by planting it inside of a 5" cement garden border. It reseeds every year, but doesn't jump the fence.
