Chill the Mixture: Place the tea mixture in the refrigerator and let it chill thoroughly. This step is crucial for an iced cold experience.
Serve: When ready to serve, fill glasses with ice cubes. Pour the chilled chamomile and passion fruit tea over the ice.
Garnish: Add a few sprigs of fresh mint to each glass for a garnish. The mint not only looks beautiful but also adds a refreshing aroma and flavour.
