  1. Put the water into a large glass jar or pitcher. Remove the flower petals from the bee balm stems.
  2. Add the bee balm to the water, giving it a good stir. You can also add leaves if you like.
  3. Cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. I give the jar a shake every now and again to help the infusion along.
  4. Strain the tea through cheesecloth or a coffee filter and then keep chilled until ready to use.
