I brewed this tonight to try to relax in a way tea, no matter how relaxing can’t relax me. This tea has worked for me before. This is the second time I have bought this tea. The herbal ingredients have a nice effect even if it does not taste so good. By itself the taste is downright unpleasant, even somewhat sour. I added a nice amount of hibiscus to the tea which dulled the flavor and improved it somewhat. I also added agave nectar to it as well. The resulting taste is spicy, sour, and sweet as well. All in all it does not taste too bad. I recommend this tea for its relaxing properties, but remember I don’t recommend it for the taste.
I steeped this once in a 14 oz mug with 4 tsp leaf and 3 tsp hibiscus and boiling water for 7 min. I am going to rate this tea at an 80% but may change it in the morning to a higher number if it helps me sleep.
I decided to raise my rating for this tea because it had the desired effect. I was out like a light last night. I think that alone in a tea is worth a 90%.
Flavors: Sour
Ugh valerian root is pretty foul, lol!
Nice effect though.
very…
