Sweet Dreams

Back late from a photography lecture and to see work at a gallery – not work that I found interesting. Ugh. I had just enough energy left to pop teabags in mugs with some honey before bed. This is the one I chose because I am hoping that the chamomile will knock me out! It’s not super flavorful, but you can leave the bag in your cup with no fear of bitterness. I mainly taste mint and the honey I put in. But the main attraction to this tea is not flavor but warmth and ease. I’m glad I have it and some other bagged herbals around for lazy late nights when I don’t want to measure, fuss, wait, or clean a teapot!

This is one of my favorite teas to relax with. Minty and fragrant- it tastes sweet without having to add sweetener. The is probably do to the hibiscus, rose, and orange blossoms, which are very subtle. This was perfect after getting home late after choir practice, a full day of work and a VERY long commute.

This was actually pretty good! I wasn’t expecting much per some of the reviews here, but I liked it! The chamomile really helped settle me down, and I look forward to having this again. The mint was nicely done, too :)

I enjoy this a lot more than I expected! Mint is the primary flavor here, and the hibiscus adds an unexpected kick. I’m not usually a chamomile fan, but it doesn’t bother me in this particular blend.

Backing down from the caffeine for the day

This tea is better than I remembered. Maybe it was because I forgot it was steeping and let it go for about 20 minutes. I didn’t taste the chamomile in it at all. It had a good mint flavor, but without the bite that mint often has (more like spearmint than peppermint). Tasted very refreshing, yet was calming at the same time. Prepared with stevia.

Peppermint is the primary taste, but overall this tea isn’t my thing. I’m not a huge fan of chamomile, so that’s part of it. And the hibiscus makes it quite tart, which is also not my thing. Oh well. Swing & a miss.

I usually hate chamomile, but I actually like this stuff. Not enough to make it often, but every once in a while, I get a craving. My boyfriend is absolutely enamored with it, though. I have to steep it forever it seems, though.

This tea is really well blended in that the drinker can distinguish all of the ingredients and I like that about it. As far as nighttime teas go, however, this is good but it is not my favorite.

I’m not a fan of herbal teas. To me, the majority are much too alike and this, while pleasant, is too.

I have to give this tea recognition, it is what got me started as a tea drinker way back when, along with their peppermint, spearmint, and orange spice flavors. I still drink it once in awhile before bed, pretty relaxing with a little honey in it.

I don’t really taste the chamomile, mainly just the mint, but I love this tea.

I once tried tea when I was younger and was not a fan. Tonight I decided to give it another shot, I decided that I have this one be my first tea since I’m currently dealing with a cold and thought perhaps it’d help me relax before bedtime…so far I’m enjoying it (obviously enough to join this great group and write about it).

Dear folks of the Steepster community…I no longer hate tea! :)

Fantastic. With a bit of honey it’s a really pleasant way to end an evening.

This is my wife’s favorite bedtime tea. For bagged teas, this is probably my favorite bedtime tea as well. It is naturally sweet and even tastes good cold when I finish a cup in the morning.

mint and chamomile are two of my favorite things. i had this tea with some honey in it after dinner and it was delicious.

I gave this a try last night before bed. I enjoyed the hint of mint flavor. I did not feel like this will be a favorite bedtime tea, which means I will continue to search and will update when I find it.

This tea is a good blend of mint and Chamomile. Not the most flavorful nighttime blend, as others have said, but definitely a good tea that I can always be in the mood for.

This is pretty tasty, but not quite what I was looking for. The chamomile and mint are relaxing and smooth, and the hibiscus adds a tangy note. I personally am not keen for the sourness right before bed. I will be looking for a better loose blend without the sour notes.

I’ve gone through a few boxes of this in the past couple of years. If I’m thirsty near bed time it tastes good & I know it won’t keep me up.
