Step-by-Step Instructions
- Begin by boiling 2 cups of water in a small saucepan. Once it reaches a rolling boil, remove it from the heat and add in either 2 teaspoons of loose chamomile flowers or 2 chamomile tea bags. Cover and let it steep for 5 minutes.
- After 5 minutes, carefully remove the chamomile flowers or tea bags. Now, add 1 teaspoon of dried lavender flowers to the brewed tea. Cover once again and let the mixture steep for an additional 2 to 3 minutes.
- Once steeping is complete, stir in 1 to 2 teaspoons of honey while the tea is still warm. The warmth will help dissolve the honey seamlessly into the tonic.
- For a cozy serving, pour the hot Chamomile Lavender Sleep Tonic into a mug and enjoy immediately. Alternatively, if you prefer a chilled version, allow the tonic to cool to room temperature, then pour it over ice.
- To create a creamier texture, consider adding 1/4 cup of almond or oat milk to your tonic. Stir gently to mix the milk throughout.
- If you'd like to prepare ahead, brew a larger batch of Chamomile Lavender Sleep Tonic and refrigerate it for up to 2 days.
- Feel free to experiment with different flavors in your Chamomile Lavender Sleep Tonic! Try adding a pinch of cinnamon for warmth or a splash of vanilla extract for a sweet twist.
