Ingredients

• 8 parts Chamomile Flowers
• 3 parts Hops
• 3 parts Catnip
• 1 parts Valerian Root
• 1 part St. Johns Wort
• ½ part Lavender Flowers
• ½ part Rosehips

Directions

• Choose your measuring spoon or cup and measure out 8 scoops of chamomile flowers, 3 parts of hops flower, 3 scoops of catnip, 1 scoop of valerian root, 1 scoop of St. Johns Wort, ½ a scoop of lavender flowers, and ½ a scoop of rosehips.
• Stir to mix them all together well. Label your jar.
• To prepare the tea, shake the jar to mix the herbs together.
• Pour about 1 cup of boiling water over 1 Tablespoon of the herbal tea mix and allow it to steep for about 20-30 minutes.
• Strain the herbs from the tea and stir in a spoon that was first dipped in raw honey.
• (Sometimes if I plan to drink it for a couple nights I will also pour a quart of boiling water over ¼ cup of tea mix and allow it to decoct 12-24 hours before straining.)
