Caffeine-free tea to reduce cortisol
The original Cortisol Evening Tea is a calming blend of relaxing nervines like Skullcap and Oatstraw with Ashwagandha and Nettles, two herbs that have been shown in studies to reduce cortisol levels in the body.
We also added Dandelion root to support the liver and digestion while your body sleeps.
The flavor is fresh, green, and grassy. We recommend sipping on Cortisol Evening Tea at the end of the day to help your body unwind and recover from the stresses of the day. This herbs in the tea will help your body get ready for sleep. It's completely caffeine free, so you can enjoy it any time of the day or night.
Please note that we made another tea called Cortisol Daytime Tea. The difference between the two teas is that the Daytime version is made with both adaptogens (which can be energizing) and nervines, while the Evening blend focuses more on nervines. The two teas have completely different flavor profiles; the Daytime version is light and lemony, and the Evening blend is fresh and grassy. The two teas are complementary.

FAQs
Can you drink your tea during pregnancy or when on medication?
Our teas are made from non-toxic botanicals that are generally regarded as safe. However, not all herbal teas are suitable for everyone. If you’re pregnant, on medication, or under a doctor’s care, we recommend speaking to your health practitioner before using the tea.
While there is a wealth of research on the herbs we use, your physician may not be familiar with it and might advise caution. Additionally, your pharmacist can be a helpful resource for checking potential interactions with your prescribed medication.
How long does it take for it to work, and when will I see results?
The time it takes to see results depends on the tea and your purpose for using it. Sedating, sleep-promoting teas typically work quickly, often within an hour. However, for chronic issues like inflammation or fatigue, it can take up to 90 days to notice significant improvements. This doesn’t mean the teas take 90 days to start working; rather, it takes time for the changes to become noticeable.Learn more.
Are your teas organic, and where do you get your ingredients?
With the exception of one or two wild-crafted herbs, we use only certified organic ingredients in all our teas. Our ingredients come from all over the world, sourced from regions where each botanical flourishes best. Our trusted suppliers perform third-party testing for agricultural chemicals, mold, heavy metals, and other contaminants to ensure the highest quality and safety.
How much tea do you use per cup, and how long do you steep it?
When brewing loose leaf tea, the gold standard is one level-to-rounded teaspoon of tea for every eight ounces of hot water. If you’re unsure what eight ounces looks like, use a measuring cup as a guide. Steeping times vary depending on the tea. For most herbal teas, it takes longer to extract all the beneficial compounds, so we typically suggest brewing your tea for five minutes or longer.Learn more.
What if I don’t like the taste of the tea?
If you're new to loose leaf herbal teas, the flavors might be unfamiliar at first. Give your palate time to adjust. If the taste is still challenging, try these tips:
- Drink the tea quickly, like a shot, and follow with a chaser such as water or juice.
- Turn it into a tea latte with creamy coconut or oat milk.
- Add a pinch of cinnamon for natural sweetness and extra health benefits.
- Add mint for a refreshing flavor that can mask other tastes.
- Brew the tea with muddled fresh fruit for added sweetness and fruity flavor.
If you still don't enjoy the taste, keep experimenting with different teas. There are many options available, and you're sure to find one you love.
Here are 6 ways to make your tea taste better without adding sweetener.
Customers said this evening tea promotes relaxation and improved sleep quality. Many reported "sleeping better than in years" and falling asleep faster. The mild, earthy flavor is generally well-received. However, some found no effect on sleep, others noted taste issues, and a few experienced digestive reactions. Price concerns were mentioned.
I started this day/evening bundle March 2025 to see if I could feel better. After 3 months I was sleeping better, didn't feel as bloated and wasnt as hungry and maybe lost 5 pounds. My husband noticed my mood changing and wanted to know about the tea. I ordered more so that he could try it. 7 months later he has lost almost 100 pounds, I have lost about 30 pounds. We have found ourselves and each other after 15 years of trying to. Thank you for giving us our life back!!!
Wow… this is truly incredible to read, Linda! Hearing about both of your journeys, not just physically but together, really means the world to us. We’re so glad you’re both feeling better and reconnecting in such a meaningful way. Thank you for being here and for trusting us along the way!
I purchased the Evening and Daytime Cortisol Tea with alot of doubt!! Honestly, I've tried so many things that don't actually work. When I received the tea - I opened the Evening tea first - and honestly thought - oh no! It smelled like grass!! And it looked like grass! :) But I made it according to the instructions and I liked it - then the next night, I liked it more and now it's just part of my nightly routine and I look forward to settling in and having my tea every evening - It's been 2 weeks. I am being completely honest when I say that my sleep patterns have drastically improved. I've had alot of sleep issues and have tried alot of things that make me wake up feeling foggy. This tea is helping me sleep and wake up feeling fully rested. I don't wake up 3-4 times a night like I did before. I also love the daytime Cortisol I can't recommend this stuff enough. I can't remember the last time I wrote a review about a product - this is heartfelt. Give it a try. I've already ordered more and now I'm looking forward to trying some of their other products - and look at my cute cup I got from them!! :)
I'm a guy who has struggled with sleeping for decades. The Loose Leaf adds found their way into my social media feed, so I did a little research. I decided that for a small investment I could see if there was any validity to the advertised claims. I am pleased to say that the tea has made quantifiable contributions to my sleep quality and duration. I am getting ready to order my next pouch.
I am totally stunned! I have had a cup 2 nights in a row. Took it to bed and sipped it while I read. I have no recollection of falling asleep! I don’t think read for even a half hour. I often read for 3 or 4 hours before falling asleep! Also I woke up in the morning not at 2 or 3 am but at 7:00! Wow! Melatonin does almost nothing. I’m restricted on sleeping meds due to the meds I take in conjunction with my newly implanted pacemaker. I’m so thrilled to have found this item. Love it!

drank my tea every night for 2 weeks, no change at all. Still waking up at 3 am.
For the money it cost I would not buy again.

Hi Brian, we're so glad to hear that the Cortisol Evening Tea helps you relax and improves your bedtime routine! Thanks for sharing your experience.
I'm sleeping better than I have in years. I used to wake up in the middle of the night and not be able to go back to sleep. Now, I brew the tea in just a few ounces of water and take it before bed. I usually don't wake at all in the night but if I do, I go right back to sleep.
Hi Julie, we're so happy to hear that the Cortisol Evening Tea is helping you sleep better! This is amazing. Thank you for sharing your experience.
I initially received the AM/PM bundle. It was advertised as a weight loss aide. I did not find it useful in that way. But after several weeks, i did notice that my sleep did improve. So, I am continuing with the PM teas for now.

Love this product.
Ive been making this nightly for about 9 or 10 months now and i can always tell when i miss a night. I didnt actually wcpect it yo help but it has been a game changer in my ability to get restful sleep st night.
I absolutely love the Cortisol teas. The PM really helps me unwind and relax after a long day and has a nice flavor. Thank you!
This tea has helped me to relax at night and I have less anxiety attacks now that I've been drinking it every night the past 2 months. It's not a fix all for anxiety but it has helped my sleep so much and I love it since all of my past attacks happened in the middle of the night. Also, I dont mind the bland flavor and just add some honey to help digestion issues.
