Finding Your Perfect Evening Cup

Begin With Caffeine

If caffeine affects your sleep, begin with naturally caffeine-free herbal infusions rather than black, green, white, or oolong tea. Check every ingredient list because some blends combine herbs with true tea leaves.

Choose a Flavor Family

Floral drinkers may enjoy chamomile, lavender, hibiscus, or rose. Fruit-forward drinkers can explore berry, peach, apple, or citrus blends. Dessert-inspired teas bring flavors such as vanilla, cocoa, coconut, cinnamon, or baked fruit into the cup without requiring the tea itself to be heavily sweetened.

Earthy or herbaceous palates may prefer mint, lemongrass, rooibos, or spice-forward combinations. Reading the full ingredient list is the fastest way to avoid flavors or botanicals you do not enjoy.

Steep for the Cup You Want

Follow the package directions first, then adjust time rather than immediately adding more tea. Cover herbal infusions while steeping, strain thoroughly, and taste before adding honey or another sweetener.
