Note: There’s some concern that brewing tea in the sun can harbor bacteria, and this is a possibility. That’s because the water will get warm enough to provide a friendly environment for the bacteria, but not hot enough to kill it. To minimize the risk, use a perfectly clean container (scrub it in soap and hot water and rinse well) and don’t leave the tea to steep for more than a few hours. Make just enough tea for the day, and keep it refrigerated. If the tea becomes thick or syrupy,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], discard it. (By the way, teas that contain caffeine are less prone to bacterial contamination.)

There are many ways to take herbs for wellness – a tea to relax you after a hectic day, a capsule to help support your immune system or in a salve, poultice or bath to sooth the bumps and bruises of life. But at this time of year, nothing could be better than an icy-cold herbal tea, prepared with the very best natural, holistic herbs.

Set your container in a sunny place and let nature do the brewing. No need to set a timer—just leave the tea until it’s as strong as you prefer it. When the tea looks and tastes ready, bring it in and take out the herbs. Squeeze them before discarding to release all the flavor into the tea. Store the container in the refrigerator and serve over ice.
• Combine herbs for interesting combinations. Good options include: chamomile or alfalfa and mint; lemon herbs (like lemon verbena,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], lemongrass,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], lemon balm) and mints; sage and lemon herbs; peppermint and elder flowers; hibiscus and lemon verbena or rosehips; alfalfa and mint; clover and spearmint; licorice root or spearmint and rosemary.
• Include spices in your teas for added depth. Cinnamon,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], cloves, cardamom, allspice, and ginger are good bets.
• Citrus enlivens almost any iced tea. Use fresh lemon or lime juice, slices, or peels and/or granulated lemon.
• Chill your serving glasses ahead of time, and prop a piece of fruit (a strawberry, lime,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], orange, or lemon slice) on the edge.
Make your own with the help of the sun. Use your favorite herbs alone or in combination. Drink them plain or sweetened, or mixed with juices,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], sparkling waters, or natural sodas. Serve them to guests,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but make them part of everyday family fare, too. To make herbal sun tea all you need is a large glass jar or pitcher, fresh water,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and herbs. Try about two heaping tablespoons of herb per quart of water. Place the herbs in the container and fill with cold water. You can tie the herbs in cheesecloth or place them in a muslin bag or tea infuser first for easy removal. Cover the container.
Steep peppermint, rosehips,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], orange peel, hibiscus, and lemongrass in the two cups of water. Strain. Add orange juice and refrigerate. When ready to serve,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], pour over ice cubes and add a splash of sparkling water to each glass. Sweeten if desired.
Serving Suggestions
Forget caffeine-filled Red Bull and sugar-laden soft drinks. For nourishing refreshment, nothing quenches better—or is easier to prepare—than herbal iced tea.

Strengthening exercises help increase muscle strength. Strong muscles help to support the joints, making the joints more stable, and helping a person move more easily and with less pain. The two types of strengthening exercises are isometric and isotonic.
