    Once the water is boiling, reduce the heat to low and add the sliced ginger, fresh mint, chamomile flowers, and lemon balm leaves.

  4. 4

    Cover the saucepan and let the herbal mixture steep for about 5 minutes. If you prefer a stronger flavor, you can steep for an additional 2-3 minutes.

  5. 5

    After steeping, remove the saucepan from heat and strain the tea through a fine mesh strainer into a teapot or heatproof pitcher.

  6. 6

    If desired, add freshly squeezed lemon juice and sweeten with honey or agave syrup to taste. Stir well.

  7. 7

    Serve the herbal tea hot or let it cool and serve over ice for a refreshing cold beverage.
