Exact quantities, then the method.
Twinings Sleep Valerian is a caffeine-free herbal: camomile and lemon balm lead, a faint cool spearmint sits in the middle, and the earthy valerian root rounds it off. That valerian note is what makes it taste different from a plain camomile. Being herbal, give it a full five minute steep in just-boiled water.
