I can’t recommend specific drinks before bed without knowing more, but I can offer some general guidance and safe options:
1. Look for calming ingredients
Chamomile, lemon balm, and Valerian root are all traditionally used for relaxation and sleep. You can find them in teas or pre-made drinks.
2. Warm milk is a classic choice
While the science on warm milk for sleep isn’t definitive, many people find it comforting. If you’re lactose intolerant, consider almond milk.
3. Skip the stimulants
Avoid drinks with caffeine or sugar close to bedtime, as they can interfere with sleep.
4. Focus on relaxation
The ritual of having a warm drink before bed can be calming itself.
If you have any underlying health conditions or are taking medications, it’s always best to consult with a doctor before trying any new sleep aids, including herbal drinks.
