Rooibos - not a tea plant so it does not fuck with your sleeping schedule, great hot or cold and with any kind of (tea/coffee) condiment.
+1 on this. I have a big bag. I also have earl grey rooibos and chai rooibos which are both great.
Just don’t drink tons of this stuff. A known side effect is that it can cause chest discomfort. Ask me how I know.
Edit: Chest discomfort is only an issue if you drink a LOT of it. Normal human level consumption doesn’t cause problems.
Mint is my go to herbal tea. Aside from being a great late night tea, it grows like a weed in many places and so you can make your own rather easily!
I planted two small, ugly plants in June. By the beginning of August we had so much freaking peppermint we didn’t know what to do with it. Would recommend, such an easy herb to get to grow lol
Rooibos, mint, and chamomile for sure.
Bengal Spice!
Been trying to cut back on my evening alcohol consumption. Its a simple, very flavor forward herbal tea, and its been a great drink for winding down and resetting for the night. I dont know what it is, but im a fan. Mint tea didnt do that, but a cup or two of bengal spice seems to be what i personally crave now.
I don’t know where you’re at, but here we have a ton of really good non alcoholic beers, it’s really helped in our household!
Options where i live for non alcoholic beer are scarce where i live, but tbh, It’s a little more of a “something that isnt beer at night” sort of thing than it is a drive for sobriety. Ive got no problem with a gin and tonic nightcap, however a glass or two of tea is cheaper and healthier. But thanks for the alternative. I appriciate it.
