Good Earth Chamomile & Grapefruit is the unusual sleep blend that adds citrus brightness to traditional chamomile. The grapefruit lifts the cup from the typical "earthy bedtime tea" template into something genuinely refreshing, yet still calming and caffeine free. A modern interpretation of an old fashioned sleep tea.

Bright, slightly tart, with chamomile's gentle floral undertone underneath. The grapefruit is the surprise, most chamomile blends are sweet floral; this one is bright citrussy. Pleasantly different from the standard sleep tea template.
Why citrus + chamomile works

Chamomile contributes gentle, traditional calming character. Grapefruit's bright citrus aromatics lift the cup. The combination is less heavy handed than chamomile and lavender; the cup is brighter and more drinkable.
