Strong Sleep delivers what a proper herbal sleep blend should: effective ingredients with a balanced taste. We've crafted a formula of nine science-backed botanicals, precisely dosed to enhance your evening wind-down. Each oversized bag contains carefully selected herbs that help you transition from a busy day to a restful night.
Most sleep blends sacrifice effectiveness for flavour, or potency for palatability. We've found that sweet spot where herbal potency meets a soothing, pleasant taste you'll actually enjoy drinking.
Nights so restful you'll wake up contemplating morning yoga (we said contemplating, not doing).
We've packed over three grams of large-cut herbs into each biodegradable bag. Holy Basil, Valerian Root, and Lemon Balm lead our dream team of nine premium botanicals. From calming Chamomile to lulling Lemon Verbena, each ingredient plays its part in this masterful blend.
These hefty botanicals need proper space to fully release their beneficial properties. That's why we created oversized tea bags that give herbs room to expand and infuse completely.
The result? A soothing, delicious cup with the ideal balance of flavour and function. Your evening ritual just became the perfect prelude to a night of deep, restful sleep.
Meet the Dream Team
Lemon Balm
The sleep quality powerhouse, lemon balm regulates GABA activity in the brain, easing stress and anxiety. It’s rich in rosmarinic acid, a compound that helps calm the nervous system, promoting deeper relaxation and improving sleep quality.
Chamomile
The chamoclassic is packed with apigenin, which binds to GABA-A receptors to reduce anxiety and induce sleepiness. Its anti-inflammatory properties further enhance its ability to soothe both the mind and body, making it a bedtime staple.
Holy Basil
Stay blessed. Holy Basil, revered in Ayurveda, is an adaptogen that lowers cortisol, shifting you from fight-or-flight to rest. It contains eugenol, an antioxidant easing stress and inflammation, calming neurotransmitters to support sleep.
Valerian Root
Valerian root interacts with GABA-A receptors to enhance relaxation and improve sleep onset. Valerenic acid inhibits the breakdown of GABA, helping maintain its calming effects and supporting longer, deeper sleep.
Lemon Verbena
Cherished for centuries as a natural mood booster and sleep aid. Rich in verbascoside, it calms the body, reduces anxiety, and brings a fresh, bright flavour to every sip.
Orange Peel
Orange peel is rich in bioflavonoids like hesperidin, which have been shown to reduce cortisol levels and support the nervous system. Its bright citrus profile not only elevates flavour but also contributes to a calming effect.
Linden Flowers
A traditional remedy for restlessness, linden flowers are rich in flavonoids and tannins that act as natural sedatives. They also contain farnesol, which helps modulate the central nervous system to promote relaxation.
Lavender Flowers
Lavender is high in linalool (lol), which interacts with NMDA receptors to reduce excitatory neurotransmission, promoting calmness and relaxation. Its anxiolytic and sedative properties make it a multitasker for stress relief and better sleep.
Liquorice
Just a hint of liquorice smooths out the blend while gently supporting cortisol balance and adrenal function. A natural adaptogen, it can help steady the nervous system, making it easier to drift into deep, undisturbed sleep.
Just like our tea, our environmental commitment is uncompromising. While other brands use tea bags containing hidden microplastics that shed billions of particles into your cup (yum?), we took a very different approach.
Our oversized tea bags are 100% plastic-free and biodegradable, crafted from plant-based materials that break down naturally.
The same philosophy that guides our Strong Sleep blend with its nine premium botanicals guides our packaging choices. From the herbs in your cup to the materials that deliver them, everything benefits both you and the earth.
So while you're drifting off to sleep, you can rest easy knowing your choice is kind to the planet. Because the only thing that should steep in your cup is quality tea, not yesterday's plastic bag.
Sleep well. Live well.

No, of course not! Strong Sleep is completely caffeine-free, making it perfect for winding down in the evening.
-
Strong Sleep is made with natural herbs and is generally gentle and suitable for most people, but if you’re pregnant, breastfeeding, on medication, or have any health concerns, it’s best to check with a healthcare professional first.
It contains approximately 0.2g (200mg) of liquorice root per tea bag. Liquorice in large amounts may affect blood pressure, though this level is considered low. Again, if you do have concerns, consult your doctor before drinking regularly.
-
Pretty bloody good, actually. Smooth and mellow. Holy basil and lemon balm give it depth, and orange peel adds a slight citrusy lift, while chamomile and linden add a soft floral note.
Unlike some sleep teas that taste overly medicinal or floral, Strong Sleep is well-balanced and easy to drink.

For best results:
- Drop one tea bag into your favourite mug
- Pour over boiling water
- Let it steep for at least four minutes (longer for a stronger brew)

Strong Sleep isn’t just a bedtime drink, it’s a purposefully designed functional tea. The ingredients are backed by traditional use and modern research, and each tea bag contains a high dose of large-cut herbs, not just a dusting of flavour. It’s made for people who have tried other sleep teas and felt nothing.
-
Yes, Strong Sleep’s large-cut herbs hold up well for a second steep, though the flavour and strength will be lighter with a different profile. To get the most out of it, steep the second cup a little longer.
-
Yes. Our tea bags are 100% biodegradable and plastic-free, made from plant-based materials that break down naturally. The packaging pouch is fully recyclable. A great tea shouldn’t come at a cost to the planet.
Such a great flavour and the most brilliant nights sleep! Perfect for when a good nights sleep is really needed!…. Or perfect for any night really!
Wonderful deep, multi-layered flavour and the best night’s sleep I’ve had for a long time!
Does exactly what it says on the tin, now cant sleep without it. I wake up feeling rejuvenated. Finding it a great help with my menopausal systems. Sleeping through the night when before i would wake up a few times a night left me feeling drained throughout the day. Thoroughly recommend.
Unlike other teas, big tea packs enough flavour to fill our largest mugs. It sent us off to sleep perfectly. Love being able to see the full ingredients inside the bags, and it’s eco friendly (including the packaging). New fave tea!
Really impressed with the tea, tasted great and made me feel really relaxed and sleepy, definitely will buy again!
