Do you go up to bed with a cup of tea?

I drink several cups of tea a day, the past week I've started to take one up to bed whilst I watch TV for an hour (I'm single) and brush my teeth after. This is the cuppa I enjoy the most! I go straight to sleep after as I think I'm immune to caffeine.
Anyone else have a bed time cuppa? Decaf doesn't count 😁

Valerian tea and then I’m asleep with the faeries 😉

DH every single night. Gulps down a small bucket, falls fast asleep, never wakes up for the loo. I HATE him Grin

Oh I'm so jealous! No caffeine for me after 2pm or i can't sleep

Decaf tea just doesn't taste the same

Hot chocolate, Ovaltine or plain tap water for me. I usually take up a 1 litre bottle of water every night in case I get thirsty. Hot drinks sometimes exacerbate thirst.

Milk for me.

Sometimes, and sometimes coffee. Not decaf. I'm one of those lucky people that can drink both right before bed. If I am tired, ANYTHING warm will put me to sleep, even coffee. That said, I generally take something cold that also tastes reasonably good at room temp to bed with me, so if I wake up with a dry mouth, I can sip and go back to sleep.

Never drink tea only coffee I don't take one to bed but have a cup in the hour before I go

My bedtime cuppa is the best of the day. I love sitting in bed with tea, sigh.

Yes every night. Its our routine, both argue about who's turn it is to go downstairs and make it...

I don't drink coffee after midday, and I have my last cup of 'normal tea' around 6 or 7pm after supper. After that I only drink herbal. I like one called 'Snore and Peace' and bring a cup to bed on most nights!
