Not a big fan of this one. I don't care for the taste of chamomile or lemongrass, and I didn't find this particularly tasty. Nor did I find it relaxing or calming more so than any other herbal teas.

I've drank this tea at night when I needed to go to sleep and it works just as good as their Honey Vanilla Chamomile tea😊👍🏽.
I like the fact that they're both a caffeine free tea.
I always recommend these two teas to friends and family who say they need help falling asleep. 🥱

This is a nice relaxing, before bedtime beverage. It's soothing and pleasantly mild. Good for cooler weather evenings.

The standard. A classic that nothing else compares to. Others have tried, but I keep coming back to this one. A unique combination of flavors that is so, so comforting.

Just an awesome favorite and a classic, has always been a go to for a night time sip

I have lots of fond memories of drinking this as a kid to help me fall asleep! It goes beyond just a simple chamomile with all the other flavor notes.

This got me into herbal teas back in the late 70's...an oldie but goodie. It's a good starter tea! I don't drink it any more as I had switched over to their peach blends, and now pretty much just drink looseleaf tea.

A good tea for when you're having trouble falling asleep. This is one that most people have easy access to and it gets a star for the price and ease of access!

One of the first teas I tried as an adult. It's not bad, but not something I use anymore. I much prefer Chamomile and more whole leaf/herb teas.

Sleepy Time and I go waaay back. This was my first herbal tea when I was a kid and I remember ny first reaction when tasting it. I definitely wasnt impressed, but as I grew older, the flavor grew on me. As an adult, just smelling this tea makes me relax. It smells so lovely! If only they had a candle with this aroma.

One of my all-time favorite teas. When I need to relax before heading to bed, I make a cup of this and on a cold night it makes the perfect hand-warmer. Both the chamomile smell and the taste help me wind down and get a good nights rest. Can't recommend this tea enough.

A nice tea to wind down on that tastes good. However I find the Tension Tamer to have stronger relaxing effects.

Larissa Grassi
Ideal herbal tea for the night time; it soothes me and helps to relax before bed

Marion Black
A wonderful night time tea to help relax you. Add some honey and your all set.
-
Jessica Burl
Such a wonderful, perfected tea. I try to always have this in my cabinet in case a desire a comforting drink late at night.
-
Justina Auck
Standard classic. Every tea drinker who is wanting to dabble in Celestial is REQUIRED to try at least once! I do prefer their Vanilla Sleepytime though.
-
Jeanna
Minty chamomile tea. You can't go wrong with this! Not entirely going to make you snooze though. Just tasty.
-
Rebekah Strickland
A classic. If you need a relaxing minty tea that you can pick up literally anywhere and make without the fuss of loose leaf, this is your tea. A nice balance of quality and ease.
-
Julia Bentley
Who doesn't like Sleepytime Tea? It never really relaxes me, but I like the hint of mint.
-

A classic for a reason. I've been drinking this for most of my life and don't intend to stop.

Every night an hour before bed I drink a cup and it doesn't take me long to fall asleep once my head hits the pillow. I love the mint flavor, it has a nice calming affect that when I'm done I'm ready to fall asleep.

Celeste Morris
Celestial's signature blend. And I'm not talking about myself. This tea has been around for quite a while and still hits the spot. I love the way the hints of mint and other herbs counteract the flavor of the chamomile (which I don't really like). It will also calm an upset tummy and set you up for slumber.
-
Emily Selleck
Easily my favorite nighttime blend. I usually have to have honey in my tea, but this tastes so good, no sweetner required!
-

I don't like chamomile generally. This seems a bit cloying to me. It doesn't make me feel sleepy, but it does sooth my tummy.
-

This is ok but would recommend one of the more flavored Celestial Seasonal's varieties or, if you want an upgrade try Adagio's 40 Winks which is by FAR better than this.
-
Cindy K
It's nice, not a great flavor but nice enough for the purpose. It doesn't make me sleepy or help me sleep but it is somewhat relaxing. I use only when I really need help relaxing before bed.
-
Alexis Wolf
I found the chamomile/herb-like aspects of this tea were too overpowering for me to enjoy drinking it, but the smell is indeed relaxing haha--if you like those flavors you should like this!
-
Sky Kutil
It does relax you, but the flavor just wasn’t for me. My mom and sister both enjoy it before bed though.
-
Helen Chun
A nice blend of peppermint and chamomile to relax and soothe you. I love it with a little bit of honey. I imagine this is the kind of tea Peter Rabbit got from his mom when he had a tummy ache!
-
Maria Burns
This is the go-to comfort tea. Let's be honest, who among us hasn't needed a cup of this with honey whilst sick or at the end of a bad day. It's nostalgia in a tea.
-
Lydia Getgen
When you need to relax and unwind so you can fall asleep, this tea fits the bill! Perfect with a little honey
-
Lexus Blackmon
I bought a box and ended up giving it away to friends. Did not like it.

Max Sugerman
It might be nostalgia, but I love this tea. It has a really gentle taste, but has a great flavor. Its my favorite night time tea
-

More of a tea that isn't sure if what it is. While the taste isn't terrible, its combination doesn't quite sit right with me
-

A favorite of mine for years. Minty and fruity, it's great to wind down with and delicious with a bit of sugar or honey.
-
Elizabeth K.
To me the taste is good but nothing special. I keep it in the house, though, because it is nice and helps me fall asleep a little faster.

A classic it is! Always a relaxing drink, perfect with some sugar. Really calms you down and lets you enjoy life.
