How to Make Herb Sun Tea

Image of herb sun tea with an image of herbs and flowers infused in a large glass beverage dispenser filled with water.

We love growing organic edible flowers and fresh herbs with our Planted Wall vertical gardening system. Mint, lemon balm, calendula, chamomile and lavender are some of our favorites in beverages. And, using herbs for making tea is a wonderful way to get the most out of growing herbs.


Boiling water and steeping a tea bag isn't the only way to make tea. You can add herbs to water and they will infuse it with flavor, no matter the water temperature. But the cooler the water, the longer the brew time.


Harness the Sun's Power to Make Tea


You can use the sun's magic to make tea and don't have to turn on the stove or plug in your electric kettle. How's that for sustainability? Learn how to make sun tea with the instructions below.
