Ingredients for Calea Zacatechichi Tea
Essential Ingredients
To make a basic cup of Calea Zacatechichi Tea, you’ll need:
- 1 tbsp (5g) of dried Calea Zacatechichi leaves (adjust for desired strength).
- 200ml of water, boiled to 212°F (100°C).
For additional flavor, consider adding:
- Honey (for sweetness)
- Lemon (for a refreshing twist)

These optional ingredients can balance the natural bitterness of Calea Zacatechichi without diminishing its dream-enhancing properties.
Where to Buy Quality Ingredients

Step-by-Step Guide: How to Make Calea Zacatechichi Tea
Step 1: Measure the Ingredients
Measure 1 tbsp (5g) of dried Calea Zacatechichi leaves per 200ml of water. If you’re new to this herb, start with 1 tsp (3g) and gradually increase to find the strength that suits you best.
Step 2: Boil the Water
Heat water to 212°F (100°C). Boiling water ensures full extraction of the herb’s active compounds, enhancing both flavor and potency.
Step 3: Steep the Tea
Pour the boiling water over the leaves and steep for 2-8 minutes. A longer steeping time results in a stronger, more bitter brew, which is believed to intensify dream recall.
Tip: Use a tea strainer or infuser for easy preparation with Dreamweaver Lucid Dream Tea.
Step 4: Add Flavor Enhancers (Optional)
To soften the bitterness, add honey, lemon, or a sprinkle of cinnamon to the tea. These additions can enhance the flavor without interfering with the herb’s dream-enhancing properties.
Step 5: Drink and Prepare for Dreams
Drink the tea 30 minutes before bedtime to allow the effects to kick in as you transition into sleep. Creating a calming bedtime environment with dimmed lights, soft music, or meditation can further enhance the dream experience.
Tips for Optimizing the Dream Experience
Create a Relaxing Pre-Bedtime Ritual
Enhance the dream-enhancing effects of Calea Zacatechichi Tea by incorporating a relaxing ritual before bed. Light a candle, play calming music, or meditate for a few minutes to clear your mind. These practices can help prepare your subconscious for more vivid dreams.
Keeping a Dream Journal
A dream journal is an essential tool for anyone seeking to improve dream recall. Keep a notebook by your bedside and jot down any details you remember immediately upon waking. Over time, this practice can help you notice patterns, symbols, and themes in your dreams, making your experience with Calea Zacatechichi even more rewarding.
Pairing with Other Dream Herbs
For an enhanced lucid dreaming experience, consider blending Calea Zacatechichi with herbs like Chamomile, Valerian, or Passionflower. Sacred Plant Co’s Dreamweaver Lucid Dream Tea already incorporates these complementary herbs, making it an ideal choice for vivid dreams and relaxation.

While Calea Zacatechichi Tea is generally safe, some users may experience mild side effects, including:
