What Is Elderberry Night Tea?
Elderberry Night Tea is a loose leaf herbal tea made for bedtime. Elderberries give the blend its dark color, tart fruit character, and traditional antioxidant support, while chamomile, lemon balm, and passion flower bring the soft, calming character that evening teas are loved for. Lavender buds add a light floral lift and valerian root anchors the finish. There is no black, green, or white tea leaf in the jar, so there is no caffeine in the cup.
Meet Our Elderberry Night Tea
Our Elderberry Night Tea is crafted to feel like the end of the day in a cup. The flavor opens with deep, tart elderberry, softens into honeyed chamomile and gentle lemon balm, and finishes lightly floral from the lavender buds. It is a slow tea on purpose: elderberry has to be simmered rather than steeped, and that ten to fifteen minutes on the stove becomes part of the ritual.
Evening wellness, the Serene Tree way: dark elderberry, soft chamomile and lemon balm, quieting passion flower, and a whisper of lavender and valerian root — caffeine free, and made with careful apothecary attention inspired by our Virginia farm-based roots.
Why We Built a Bedtime Blend Around Elderberry
Elderberry is the botanical our customers already know and trust, but it is almost always sold as a daytime, seasonal-wellness ingredient. We wanted to show the other side of it. Paired with classic calming herbs instead of warming spices, elderberry becomes something quieter: rich and dark in the cup, but restful rather than bracing. Elderberry Night Tea is the evening companion to the rest of our elderberry line.
Elderberry Night Tea Ingredients
Every botanical in this blend was chosen for the evening. We keep the formula clean, loose leaf, and free of caffeine, flavorings, and colors.
- Elderberry (Sambucus nigra fruit) – The heart of the blend, known for its deep color, tart dark-fruit character, and traditional antioxidant support.
- Chamomile Flowers (Matricaria chamomilla) – The classic bedtime flower, soft, apple-sweet, and gently calming.
- Lemon Balm (Melissa officinalis) – A bright, lightly citrus mint-family herb long used to ease the end of a busy day.
- Passion Flower (Passiflora incarnata) – A traditional quieting herb that rounds out the calming side of the cup.
- Lavender Buds (Lavandula angustifolia) – A small amount for a light floral aroma and finish.
- Valerian Root (Valeriana officinalis) – The deepest, most grounding note in the blend, used traditionally before sleep.
Taste, Texture & Aroma
Deep, dark, and lightly floral. The brew pours a rich reddish-purple, with tart elderberry up front, a honeyed chamomile middle, and a clean lemon balm lift. Lavender sits just at the edge of the aroma, and valerian root adds an earthy, rooty depth underneath. It is comforting without being sweet, and it takes honey beautifully if you want to soften it.
Who Elderberry Night Tea Is Best For
This blend is made for people who want a real wind-down ritual rather than a quick cup, and who prefer traditional loose leaf botanicals to tea bags and flavorings.

- Customers who want a caffeine-free tea they can drink late

How To Brew Elderberry Night Tea
Simmer — do not just steep. Add 1 tablespoon to 2 cups cold water. Bring to a gentle simmer and simmer for 10–15 minutes. Steep covered for 5 more minutes off the heat, then strain. Drink 30–45 minutes before bedtime, 1 cup nightly as desired.
Important safety information: Elderberry must be simmered a minimum of 10 minutes — do not just steep. This blend contains valerian root and passion flower: do not drive or operate machinery after drinking it. Not for use during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Do not combine with sedative medications, sleep aids, anti-anxiety medications, or alcohol. Not for children under 12. Consult your healthcare provider before use if you take any medications. Keep out of reach of children.

A Caffeine-Free Elderberry Bedtime Tea Rooted in Virginia Apothecary Tradition
Elderberry Night Tea was created to honor the part of the day that usually gets rushed. Instead of a tea bag and ninety seconds, this blend asks for a small pot, a low flame, and about fifteen minutes — and gives back a cup that is dark, aromatic, and genuinely restful.
The result is a loose leaf herbal tea made from elderberry, chamomile flowers, lemon balm, passion flower, lavender buds, and valerian root, packed in a resealable glass jar in 1.7 oz and 4 oz sizes. It is caffeine free, alcohol free, and made in small batches from our Virginia farm-based apothecary.
A Closer Look at the Flavor
Elderberry leads with a tart, dark-fruit depth that no other bedtime herb provides. Chamomile softens it into something honeyed and round, lemon balm lifts it with a clean citrus-mint brightness, and passion flower and valerian root settle underneath with a quiet, earthy base. Lavender buds sit lightly on top of the aroma. Together the cup is deep, dark, and lightly floral — comforting without being sweet.
Building an Evening Ritual Around It
Start the simmer about an hour before bed. While it works, put the phone down, dim the lights, and let the kitchen smell like chamomile and lavender for a few minutes. Strain, pour, and drink it 30 to 45 minutes before you plan to sleep. A little honey is welcome if you want to soften the tartness. Because it contains valerian root and passion flower, keep it for nights when you are staying in — do not drive or operate machinery after your cup.
