I love waking up to a warm (or iced in the summer) cup of tea. A robust black tea in the morning for a little caffeine boost, a subtle cup of green in the afternoon when I\u2019m feeling a mid-day slump, and a cozy herbal in the evening suits me just fine. One of my favorite parts about traveling is visiting countries that have tea ingrained in their culture. In Ireland, tea is offered with just about every meal, and a scone is sure to accompany it. Near my hometown lies a historic tea house that still serves fresh biscuits, jam, cream, and a menu full of teas that can overwhelm even the most skilled tea connoisseurs. I love to visit the tea house on a lazy Sunday with my friends; I simply can\u2019t get enough of tea! If you haven\u2019t hopped on the tea bandwagon yet, it\u2019s never too late. Tea has countless health benefits, including being an effective natural sleep aid. Enjoying a good book with a cup of chamomile tea is my favorite way to fall asleep. Here is an easy-to-craft bedtime tea that you are sure to love. \u00a0Prep time10 minutesServes 4\u00a0Ingredients \u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 5 Cups of water\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 3 Tsp chamomile\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 1 Tsp lavender\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Coconut oil\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Raw honey\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Milk or milk alternative\u00a0Directions1.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 In a large sauce pan, combine water, chamomile, and lavender.2.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Bring to a boil on high heat and reduce to a simmer for 5 minutes.3.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Pour water into 4 cups with a strainer to remove herbs.4.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Stir in coconut oil, honey, and milk to taste.This information is not intended as a substitute for the advice provided by your physician or other healthcare professional or any information contained on or in any product label or packaging.
