1
Steep the Herbal Tea Base
In a large pot, combine the dried chamomile flowers, dried peppermint leaves, dried hibiscus petals, and dried lemon balm. Pour in 4 cups of water and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat and let it simmer for 10 minutes.
2
Strain the Tea
After simmering, use a fine mesh strainer to strain the mixture into a large teapot or pitcher, discarding the herbs.

3
Add Flavorings
Stir in the fresh lemon juice and honey or agave syrup into the strained tea. Adjust sweetness to taste.
4
Infuse with Cinnamon
Add the cinnamon stick to the tea and let it steep for an additional 5 minutes to infuse the flavor.

5
Garnish and Serve
Pour the tea into cups and garnish with fresh mint leaves and lemon slices. Serve hot or chilled, depending on the season.
