Yeah unfortunately now that he knows it's just tisane, I don't think it'll work as well. I tried to make him think it was a real potion, a gentle one that you brew like tea and then drink, because I thought if he believed it was, it would help more. The valerian made it smell and taste just dreadful, which helped with the pretense.
If you point out to him that it WAS helping then maybe it still will. It's just a blend of chamomile, lemon balm, rosemary, and lavender, plus ground valerian root. Except for the valerian there's nothing we can't just request from the kitchen still, since at least she hasn't stopped us drinking tea yet, and even the valerian isn't something we're forbidden to have.
