Preparation

  1. 1

    Measure Herbs

    Gather all the dried herbs: chamomile flowers, peppermint leaves, lemongrass, and hibiscus petals. Measure the specified quantities and set aside.

  2. 2

    Boil Water

    In a kettle or pot, bring 4 cups of filtered water to a boil over medium-high heat.

Brewing the Tea

  1. 3

    Combine Herbs and Water

    Once the water reaches a rolling boil, remove it from heat and add the measured herbs to the water.

  2. 4

    Steep

    Cover the pot and let the herbs steep in the hot water for 5-7 minutes, depending on how strong you prefer your tea.

  3. 5

    Strain the Tea

    After steeping, use a fine mesh strainer to strain the tea into cups, discarding the herb remnants.

  4. 6

    Add Sweetener and Lemon

    If desired, stir in honey for sweetness and garnish with a slice of lemon in each cup.
