1 teaspoon valerian root

16 ounces of fresh boiled water

Buying Valerian Root

If you are going to invest some time into making your own herbal teas - best you use a source for your herbs that has a proven track record. We like to use Mountain Rose herbs as they are usually organic and or wildcrafted meaning that you are getting a very high quality herb.

If you visit their site, you will notice that they have both valerian root powder and the herb. For tea making, you do not want to use the powder, it will leave a residue, make a muddy tea, and leave a coating in your mouth. (Not very pleasant!)

So choose the valerian root that has been shredded. It is quite inexpensive, and you can make some delicious herbal teas.

Valerian root has been used for its sedative qualities for 100's of years and is a popular herb amongst herbalists. Besides chamomile, it blends well with lavender, or rose petals (flowers), jasmine, and of course lemon and honey.

I hope this article helps you to make some fabulous Valerian Root Tea blends. To purchase your herbs, you can access Mountain Rose form our tea herbs section of the site.

Here is to a great sleep thanks to valerian tea!
