Enhanced Dream Recall
Handpicked by canoe in the algonquin wilderness, sweet gale is a light flavourful herbal tea which is said to enable one to have more memorable dreams.
TRADITIONAL USES:
INGREDIENTS:
SWEET GALE (Myrica Gale)
Lucid Dream Tea can help you remember your dreams, or to dream with others, try a cup as you go to bed. Lucid dream tea is not a sedative but has an immediate calming effect.
THE LUCID DREAM TEA STORY
As the Haunting calls of the Loons fill the vast silences of Canada’s Northern nights, a musical web is created, from Lake to Lake, telling tales of the night.
Growing along these shores, Sweet Gale’s red and golden roots are woven into each other underwater, producing plants with the magic to move us into Lucid Dreaming.
INGREDIENT TRADITIONAL USES
Leaves are used traditionally as a light flavourful green tea, and its seed nutlets as sage or bay like cooking spice. Sweet Gale leaves were dried to perfume linen and make candles because of its beautiful fragrance. Also used to allay thirst.
Astringent, diuretic, and emetic properties have been scientifically recognized.

I got this tea through the Foodie Pen Pal program over at theleangreenbean.com. It’s not a tea that I would normally pick out, so I was intrigued.
It tastes like the green tea that you would get at any random Chinese restaurant. Now granted, I don’t have a really refined palate for green teas, so maybe I’m missing something. Maybe if I had steeped it longer as another reviewer said, then I would have found that sweetness in sweet gale. As it is, it’s pleasant enough, but not something that I would get again.
One little sample cup!! maybe two sips. Hours before I went to bed.
And I dreamt a funny dream. I was dating Patrick Jane, but we had to keep it secret because I resided in reality and he lived inside a tv show. Oh and I could only meet up with him during a “new” episode, not in reruns. Now that I’m awake it makes no sense.
Oh and to get into his little hideaway cabin room we slid down a giant snow covered hill that launched us in the air (like a ski jump), across a little valley and down onto another hill where he showed me the secret entrance, before giving me a tour. Freaked me out, as he’d given no warning so there was a moment of wondering what broken legs might feel like. And then I wanted to go again. I’m not surprised my brain fixated on PJ. I’ve kinda had a crush on the character for ages, even moreso after I realized he was a tea nut :P
When I do recall my dreams, there is generally an element of stress built in, so I can’t blame that part on the tea. but it doesn’t happen very often. So it could be a coincidence. Still, I’m gonna reserve having an entire cup before bed until the weekend where I’m not working the next day.
The taste was nice and pleasant. Grassy and a bit sweet. Refreshing. I’m sure it would be different brewed at home.
I need a nap now…
Ha! I love ridiculous dreams like that. It makes you wonder how our minds can come up with some of the crazy things that they do.
Seriously! I’m impressed with my insanity haha. Though I have been thinking about PJ a lot lately. I sent out the press release for the Tea Festival, and Simon Baker’s publicist was one of those I “spammed” in hopes that we might get a tweet or something.
It’s just so funny how our minds will take things/people we’ve been thinking about throughout the day and turn it into a totally twisted circus.
Yup. Entertaining for sure! I hope I have a fun day on Friday, before I try a full mug of this tea :P
Yeah, that doesn’t make much sense. It would be more practical to visit him during commercial breaks instead of new vs. old episodes if you were trying to keep it on the DL.
@Dustin nope it really doesn’t make sense. I’m ok with that, as I rarely ever do :P
Also, commercial breaks… that is clever!! I’ll try and think about that next time I have this tea before bed heh
I drank this last night, mainly out of curiosity. It has an interesting, very vegetal taste to it. Not a huge fan of the overall taste, honestly.
I don’t remember my dreams from last night at all, but I did sleep right through my alarm (unfortunately I don’t think I can blame the tea for that). I got a small amt from my mom’s supply at Xmas, so I only have enough to try it one more time.
