     Title: Hops Tea
Categories: Beverages, Tea
     Yield: 1 Serving

          Hops (1 handful)
          Boiling water

 After trying just about everything (bananas containing magnesium,
 chamomile, ginkgo biloba, kava, kawakawa, L-theanine, lavender, lemon
 balm, licorice root, marshmallow root, passionflower, St. John's
 wort, tart cherry containing melatonin, valerian, and warm milk
 containing tryptophan), I've finally found a natural sleep aid that
 works for me: Hops tea.

 This is tea made from the same kind of hops (Humulus lupulus) as used
 for brewing beer. It's fairly simple to make: Steep a small handful
 of hops in a cup of boiled water for 7-10 minutes. Strain. Add a dash
 of vodka (not necessary, but greatly improves the taste). Drink just
 before bed.

 If you're buying hops from a homebrew supplies shop, you want cone
 hops (the whole thing, just dried) not the pellets. The exact variety
 isn't important. I used Mosaic.
