Iced tea?

I had ALOT of lemon ice tea before I went to bed last night and I had the longest most vivid dream I have ever had i had total control of everything that went on but it wasnt lucid, Heres the post out of my dream journal.

Spoiler for Dream:

I was in some guys house and he said that i could wish for anythning and it would happen, all i had to do was cup my hands and say the wish outloud.I was wrestling the guy outside in my front yard and these little kids were watching he was strong but i threw him on the ground. next i was at some walmart type store and i was making objects move with my mind because i wished i could do that. then next I wished for a personal hair dresser (even tho im a guy? eh?) and i got to pick from styles scene emo prep and stuff like that.I was watching these fish with my friend mary after that and two of them died. then i wished for a laser pen and was shining it everywhere. NEXT i was at a and it was night and people were in the woods and i was waiting for someone and my phys ed teacher made everyone come out of the woods. i walked home with my friend and he had to go to the bathroom? so he went home? i was in some girls basement and shined that laser pen at these guns and stuff and she said to watch out that the laser gets hot. then my friends dead dog appears looking at me funny.. thats all i can remember but it was LONG

Sorry to bump after only a few days,

I drank lemon tea before bed and had a full on 15 minute lucid dream and I DIDN'T stablilize. You may be on to something.

Tea, especially black tea has a lot of L-Theanine I just learned.
It helps relax and sleep. It is often taken with Melatonin, Galantamine (& Choline):

Could people stop posting topics about the Lucid induction-potential of Pickles after they incidentally had a Lucid Dream after eating pickles the night before?

There is no solid grounds on which to assume Iced Tea has such an effect, unless you tried it serveral times before bedtime, without taking anything else and had a noticably more lucid/vivid dream than usual each time you did it.

Actually... Tea does affect dreams. For example, I am a heavy tea drinker. Over about a month I drink tea before bed.

Green tea is supposed to give a higher chance of LD's due to the ingredients in it. It might give me dreams but I sure have horrible recall after drinking it.

Lemon Tea- No evidence, that I know, but I had my first 15 min LD drinking it, probably just a coincidence .

Peppermint Tea- Not so much the tea but the smell of the peppermint has been proven to make you sleepy. Everytime I drink this I smell the steam before going to sleep and drink the tea of course, I Had a 2 min LD last night, and this tea has never failed me yet. I remembered about 6 dreams, I barely remember my lucid but I know I did the nose RC and rubbed my hands together.
