This is one of my go-to bedtime teas. It’s a comforting tea, with a bit more sweetness to it than the supermarket bedtime tea.

I have very unsettled nights waking up tired. Since drinking the Dreamer Tea of an evening I am sleeping for much longer periods & wake up refreshed. I have found an unexpected side effect from the tea is no swollen ankles & lower legs when I wake up & the usual swelling has reduced throughout the day

I purchased this over one month ago and finally got around to using it. I read the reviews and was sceptical, but it really works!

Wasn’t sure how affective this would be; however, I have been blown away by how well this works. Haven’t had a sleepless night since I purchased this. Tastes amazing in warm almond milk.

I followed the brew instructions on the box, and it was really helpful! Add powder, a little milk, whisk and then add the rest of your milk. It's like milo. If you like a sweet, milky tea this is for you.
