Looking for a warm, caffeine-free drink to enjoy in the evening? Simmering a banana with cinnamon and ginger creates a gently sweet beverage with a comforting, spicy aroma.
This simple recipe can be an enjoyable addition to your bedtime routine. However, it should not be presented as a proven treatment for insomnia: direct research showing that banana tea improves sleep is limited.
