Add 1 tablespoon of herbs to 1 cup (8 ounces) of water and let simmer on the stove on low heat for up to 40 minutes. Strain out your herbs and add your sweetener of choice. We recommend drinking 1-2 cups approximately an hour before bed for support in falling asleep + staying asleep throughout the night.

How to make the perfect cup 

🌿 Option 1: Extract the most therapeutic properties from your root herbs

Measure out 1 tablespoon of herbs for every cup (8 ounces) of tea you plan to make and add them to a pot. Add cold or lukewarm water to the same pot and turn the stove to medium heat. Once the water and herbs come to a boil, immediately turn the heat to a low setting. Leave your tea to simmer on the stove for up to 40 minutes. When ready, strain out the herbs and add your preferred sweeteners or enjoy as is.

🌿 Option 2: Do it the easy way 

Add 1 tablespoon of herbs per cup of water and steep at 212°F for 5-15 minutes. For the perfect cup, add a bit of honey.

How many cups does each pouch make?

  • 1 ounce pouch: 6+ cups of tea
  • 2 ounce pouch: 13+ cups of tea
  • 4 ounce pouch: 26+ cups of tea

Re-steep your tea (AKA use the same herbs to make a second cup) to get the most out of your herbs and your money!

FAQs

How do I make a cup of loose tea?

Steeping leaves & flowers

Blends: Weightless, Radiant, Gut Soother, Period Tea

Measure out 1 tablespoon of herbs for every cup (8 ounces) of tea you plan to make. Begin boiling your water to at least 200°F and add your herbs to your tea pot, basket infuser, tea ball, or whatever accessory you have on hand. Pour the hot water over your herbs and let them steep for 5-10 minutes before straining them out using your tea-making accessory or a basket strainer. Add some honey or maple syrup, or enjoy as is!

Is herbal tea actually tea?

Technically, herbal tea is not tea. Commonly referred to as a tisane or herbal extraction, herbal teas cannot be considered tea because they do not contain tea leaves from the camellia sinensis plant that black, green, and white teas are made from. 

It's also worth noting that apart from herbs like yerba maté and yaupon holly, herbs contain no caffeine. Therefore, a majority of herbal tea is caffeine free.

What does "re-steep" mean and how can I do it?

Re-steep literally means "to steep again." So, just follow the same steps you used to make your first cup of tea again. All of our blends can be re-steeped— and we recommend that you do so you get the most therapeutic value from your herbs (and the best bang for your buck).

Do you offer free shipping?

We will be offering free shipping on domestic (US) orders over $75 very soon, so stay tuned!

How do I know whether I'm allergic to the herbs in these blends?

Before purchasing anything from us, please check the full ingredient list at the bottom of each product page and ensure you're not knowingly allergic to any of the herbs listed.

If you don't have any known allergies but you're concerned that your body may have an adverse reaction to these blends, we recommend either doing a patch test with the tea before you consume it, or starting with a very mild cup of tea.

To perform a patch test, follow the instructions on the bag to steep the tea and then rub a portion of the steeped tea on your forearm. Wait 24 hours to see if a rash appears. If so, gift your tea to a friend and do not consume it.

To make a mild/diluted cup of tea to test for a reaction, add 1 teaspoon of herbs for every 1/2 cup of water and let steep for 5 minutes. Strain out your herbs and take a sip of the tea. Wait 5-20 minutes before drinking the rest of the cup to ensure the first sip didn't cause an allergic reaction.

When in doubt, check with your doctor first. If you're planning to incorporate these blends into your routines and you've:

  • had allergic reactions in the past,
  • are taking medication,
  • are pregnant and/or breastfeeding,
  • have a health condition

always consult your doctor before taking any herbal supplement in any form (including tea). Herbs are natural, but that doesn't mean they are safe for everyone.

** As these are food items, we do not accept returns. In the event that you're allergic to and/or have an adverse reaction to the tea, seek medical treatment immediately. We are not liable for any adverse reactions you may have.

Do these blends contain gluten?

All of our blends are technically gluten free. However, we always warn that Weightless and Sweet Slumber may contain traces of gluten because they're blended with oat straw, which is sometimes processed by facilities that also process crops that contain gluten.

Love this tea!

I love this sweet slumber tea, I only got a 1 oz bag to try so I’ve been using it rather sparingly because it tastes so good! I felt like I slept better when i drank this but drink like an hour or two before bed otherwise you’ll be like me and have to pee in the middle of the night! I love these teas and she does an amazing job. Highly recommend!

Consistently Wonderful

This stuff is magic! The Sweet Slumber tea is the only thing that helps my husband to sleep through the night. I've always been a tea lover, and my husband a skeptic, but this tea has finally converted him.

Rebecca always ships our orders so quickly, and it’s so reasonably priced for the amount of healing it provides.

I cannot recommend Everyday Alchemy enough!

Highly recommended!

This is the most amazing sleep tea I’ve tried! I suffer from terrible insomnia and this helps me tremendously! I look forward to it every single night! Taste is so good with a little honey and I never want to run out- finally signed up for the monthly subscription to help with that! All of her blends taste delicious and actually do what they claim. Thank you for what you do! ❤️

Yes, yes and yes!

Full disclosure, I've never been a huge tea fan. Here and there when it was the only option kind of thing. And if hot, with milk and sugar. I have issues falling asleep and have tried umpteen things in search of a remedy. I somewhat stumbled onto Everyday Alchemy and decided to give it a whirl. I got the Sweet Slumber mix. The first cup I just instinctively threw in sugar and milk, and it tasted like something I won't share. I tossed it and made another cup without the additives, and it was absolutely delicious! It's extremely light and refreshing. It has subtle floral undertones. No lie, I actually look forward to it now. Now, the slumber part. I swear by it. I will tell you there's always the possibility of a placebo effect, but I can feel good in saying that it actually does make me comfortably sleepy and able to fall asleep much more easily. It creates a nice closing for the day. I'm definitely a fan!
