Lemon Balm — Underrated?

For the unfamiliar, lemon balm is a common herb in the mint family. Grows like a weed, smells and tastes great, drought and freeze resistant, attracts pollinators when flowering, doesn't mind being indoors.

I've started to really like it added fresh to herbal tea — it's mildly yet discernibly psychotropic, with a subtle calming effect. If anyone's managed to pull it off well in pesto or salads, I'd love to hear your recipes.
