Prepare the Herbal Mixture
In a large bowl, combine the dried orange peel, gentian root, wormwood, chamomile flowers, and mint leaves. Mix well to ensure even distribution of the herbs.

Create the Infusion
In a large pot, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Once boiling, remove from heat and add the herbal mixture to the pot. Stir well and cover. Let the mixture steep for 24 hours to allow the flavors to infuse.

Strain the Mixture
After 24 hours, strain the herbal mixture through a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth into another large pot. Discard the solid herbs, leaving only the liquid infusion.
