Method

In a large glass jar, combine 8 cups water, herbs and ginger. 

Stir mixture with a spoon to help release the flavorful oils in the herbs. 

Cover the jar and set it in a sunny place for 6 to 8 hours. 

Alternatively, place the jar in the refrigerator for 8 hours or overnight. 

Strain out herbs and ginger, add lemon or orange slices, and sweeten tea if desired. 

Serve over ice. Will keep refrigerated for 2 to 3 days.
