Everyone who'd tried the tea said it was delicious, but not everyone agreed on the sleep benefits.
Sue said: So I had this last night thinking it was going to be a miracle cure for my restless nights! Not sure if I was fighting against it trying to prove it wrong or what. But I had the worst night ever!
"Soooo tired this morning. But I will give it the benefit of doubt and stick with it! I will either be a walking zombie by next weekend or I will be full of beans! Time will tell! On a plus note it tastes lovely!"
And Nicole agreed: "I've had these 2 nights in a row now and had the worst nights sleep!!"
The tea is flavoured with chamomile which is often thought to have calming properties.
The full list of ingredients include: Flowering Tops (30%), Chamomile Flowers (20%), Liquorice Root (20%), Lavender Flowers, Lime Flower, Tulsi Leaf, and Valerian Root.
Aldi does warn that anyone suffering from hypertension should avoid the tea as it contains liquorice.
In terms of instructions, it advises users to pour freshly boiled water over the tea bag and allow it to stand for 3 minutes or until the desired strength is achieved.
But Charlotte warned that you need a couple of bags each night in order to get the benefits. She said: "I find you need 2 cups of this.. leave the bag in too. One cup is okay but the second cup…"
At 69p for 20 bags the Aldi sleep tea is by far the cheapest we could find in supermarkets online.
