Our very simple Nighttime Tea recipe can help you get a good night’s sleep thanks to a few healthy additives. Take care of yourself—even as you sleep!
For our nighttime beverage, we start with herbal tea bags and add milk and a tablespoon of molasses, which contains magnesium, iron, and vitamin B6. These all contribute to our nighttime health.
In this short video, Patty Sanders, nutritionist with The Old Farmer’s Almanac, shows us how to make this tea. (We love her PJs!) Sweet dreams!

Would honey work instead of molasses?
Is there a version of this for diabetics?

I like the idea of using two sleeepy-time tea bags; I recently read "Molasses is a mild laxative"; night is a good time to take Molasses;
Thank you!
Have a beautiful day!

The molasses may very well have healthy properties...however, it is also a good dose of sugar ! Right before bed ?? Better save the molasses for your morning tea or coffee.
Molasses in the morning sounds good too.
An alternative for you may be ashwagandha with stevia or chamomile before bed.

That milk will aggravate acid reflux.
