Tea, dammit

[ksmith]

Can anyone out there rec an herb tea that promotes relaxation? I'm currently working my way through a box of Celestial Seasonings "Tension Tamer", which contains ginger, chamomile, and licorice, among other things. One bag in 8 oz tastes like hot water. I've got a two-bagger steeping at the moment.

Nothing illegal, thanks, but if it requires harvesting from hillsides by the light of a gibbous moon, I'd probably go for it. It's reached that point.

Maybe I should just spring for regular massages...

For some reason, the thought of lavender in tea lacks appeal. I think of it as a scent more than a drink, but maybe I'm wrong.

The main ingredient in Tension Tamer is something called eleuthero. There's also cinnamon, lemongrass, catnip, and tilia flower...along with the peppermint,chamomile, ginger, and licorice.
