- Rinse herbs and place in a large teapot or mason jar.
- Cover with boiled filtered water and allow to steep at least 10 minutes and up to 4 hours.
- Strain and refrigerate what you won't drink immediately.
- To brew lemon balm tea from dried lemon balm, the recommendation is typically to use 1 teaspoon to 1 tablespoon per cup of water. To make 3 cups, use 3 tablespoons dried lemon balm and 3 cups freshly boiled water.
- Place dried lemon balm in a large teapot or mason jar. Cover with boiled filtered water and allow to steep at least 10 minutes and up to 4 hours.
- Strain and drink immediately, refrigerating any leftover tea.
