Boil the Water
In a medium-sized pot, bring 4 cups of water to a rolling boil over high heat.

Add Ingredients
Once the water is boiling, add 2 tablespoons of dried peppermint leaves, 1 cinnamon stick, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract to the pot.
3
Simmer
Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer for about 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
4
Strain the Tea
After simmering, strain the tea through a fine mesh sieve or a tea strainer into a teapot or serving pitcher to remove the solid ingredients.

5
Sweeten to Taste (optional)
If desired, add honey or sugar to the strained tea to sweeten it to your taste.
