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.

Strain the Tea

After simmering, use a fine mesh strainer to strain the mixture into a large teapot or pitcher, discarding the herbs.

Flavoring the Tea

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.

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.
