Method
 

Step-By-Step Instructions
  1. In a small saucepan, combine 1/3 cup of honey, 1/3 cup of water, and 2 inches of sliced fresh ginger. Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat, stirring until the honey is dissolved. Remove from heat and let steep for at least 30 minutes, or refrigerate for up to a day.
  2. Bring 4 cups of filtered water to a boil. While heating, add 8 teaspoons of dried chamomile flowers to a French press. Once boiling, pour hot water over chamomile flowers and steep for about 10 minutes.
  3. Press the plunger down on the French press to separate the chamomile flowers from the liquid. Pour the brewed tea into a glass pitcher and stir in honey-ginger syrup to taste. Cool completely, then refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
  4. Coat the rims of serving glasses with reserved honey-ginger syrup, dip in sugar, fill with crushed ice, and pour chilled chamomile tea over the ice. Garnish with fresh strawberry slices.
