for the night helps one sleep.
Other people swear by a glass of milk.
Any preferences & why?

There are numerous foods rich in tryptophan which would help you sleep but the drink which contains the most is cherry juice, but cherry juice made specifically from Montmorency cherries.
This juice is available in Tesco.
