In a 2-quart pot, bring the apple juice to a boil. Once boiling, add the licorice and echinacea tea bags. Turn the heat off and let cool and steep for 30 minutes.

Remove the tea bags. Add the agave syrup and lemon juice. Bring to a low boil and cook for about 30 minutes, stirring often with a rubber spatula, until the mixture is thickened and dripping from the spatula like honey. Stir in the orange blossom water if using. Let cool until not steaming. It will thicken more as it sits.

Transfer to a container, seal, and refrigerate for up to a month.
