Drinking a cup of herbal tea before bed is a fantastic way to ease into a restful night. In traditional folk medicine, chamomile tea is used to promote relaxation and reduce stress. It contains apigenin, an antioxidant that may support and initiate sleep. Additionally, its antimicrobial components help your immune system fight back against invaders!

With a hint of sweet citrus from orange slices, and gut-healthy ginger to assist digestion, this Sleepy Time Tea has triple the benefits. Not to mention, you can add your own simple and unique twist to cater this tea to your tastes. Chamomile tea pairs so well with a spoonful of non-dairy milk and a touch of sweetness. Add honey or a drop of stevia for a treat that will sing you to sleep.
