Caffeine Free Chamomile, Peppermint & Ginger Tea
This soothing blend of chamomile, peppermint, and fresh ginger is the kind of drink that makes you want to curl up with a blanket and exhale. It's naturally free of caffeine, so you can sip it morning, afternoon, or right before bed without any of the jitteriness or sleep disruption that comes with coffee or black tea. The method is simple but intentional — ginger is simmered first to coax out its warmth and depth, then the chamomile and peppermint are steeped off the heat so their delicate flavors don't turn bitter. A whisper of vanilla powder rounds everything out in a way that feels almost luxurious for something so wholesome. A drizzle of honey at the end ties it all together with just enough sweetness. It's the kind of herbal tea that makes store-bought tea bags feel like a real downgrade.
