So, you might like it without any sweetener.

There's a tea I get at whole foods. It's in a red tin, I believe it's called Red. It's like cinnamon and something else, no sweetener needed.

The site gives a good description of each tea they sell. I also have found these sold locally. And I adore the silk steepers.

Peppermint, yerba mate, thin slices of ginger, camomile, chopped marshmallow root, burdock root, and licorice root, which sweetens naturally, all in one go, which makes three days of tea at once, and keeps near-fresh taste for that long in the fridge. I use the coffee maker.

Stevia is another good natural sweetener, for those who like more pronounced sweetening.

At home I always drink jasmine tea.

If you're a dork like me, you order raw materials, and then play around with different blends. Here's one page to look at.

I'm dorkier than you. I'm going to grow my own. I'm producing raspberry, clover, and dandelion leaves.

That actually sounds like good fun, and I could probably obtain a bunch of those ingredients just by scavenging some of the hedgerows and fields round here.

I'm definitely going to look up some of the blends that have been suggested, the fruity ones sound most appealing at the moment I think, but there's none that I wouldn't be willing to try.

Dewers, Black Velvet and Southern Comfort make some good herbal teas as well.

I like white tea with pear.

Bigelow has a pomegranate herb tea that is good.

Superflower Tea
Luscious pineapple and delicately sweet lychee - a small, round, creamy white fruit native to China - both sing with the flavors of warm Asian islands. They harmonize beautifully with the natural flavor of Nigerian hibiscus.



Comes from one of the best tea vendors on Earth, The Republic of Tea. We have about a dozen of their teas in the house. My favorite, which is not herbal, is the Ginger Peach. I have been in love with it for a few years now. I never get tired of the taste. It is not as sweet as the Hibiscus tea, but it doesn't need sugar either.

Status: offline 		CelSea had more teas with stevia until the FDA targeted them. Now, I can only find Antioxidant Green Tea (with white tea).

"(The FDA action on stevia is) a restraint of trade to benefit the artificial sweetener industry." Jon Kyl (R), AZ in a 1993 letter to former FDA Commissioner David Kessler about the 1991 stevia "import alert."

I drink raspberry tea for its potential medicinal benefits and make it palatable by adding fresh peppermint leaves and a little agave.

I agree that the RoT teas I've had are awesome but this brand is not affordable in the quantity I drink tea.

Status: offline 		I bought this tea infuser with strainer and lid a few months ago and love it so much I just bought another one.

There's a special right now:

Buy Any Just A Leaf Organic Tea and Get a Glass, Tea Infuser (SRP: $11.95) for only $4.95!(Both items must be added to the shopping cart)

I'm hoping I like the Just a Leaf tea as much as I do the tea cup, which is on sale for $8.95 when bought without the tea.
