I think it's Earl Grey that helps you relax/sleep, but I may be completely wrong.
You're wrong! So very, very wrong. Earl Grey isn't very nice, it's "aromatic" but that isn't a good thing IMO. You'll probably like it if you want a lightish morning tea.

Chamomile tea is the relaxing sleepy one!

If you want a nice strong breakfast tea I suggest Assam tea. It's a little stronger and more full-bodied than say your average PG tips breakfast tea. Let it brew for 2-3 minutes and make sure you don't over milk it. Add a little sugar if you like.

There are certain rules about tea, and whenever I've had it in the states it's done wrong! Giving you the bag and the water seperate so the water is just hot and not boiling be the time you get it... bah! All wrong. The water needs to be added as soon as it's boiled so it's as hot as it can possibly be when it hits the bag and that's true for all types of tea. Everything else is just personal preference.

I'm British, I know what I'm talking about when it comes to tea!
