My personal favorites are the Earl Grey types. A tea shop down here called Teavanna carries one called Earl Grey Cream - that is just heavenly!

Being LDS, I drink only herbal teas. I love chamomille, tension tamer, and mint. A long time ago someone gave me an herbal tea I loved, but I've forgotten what it is so I can't search for it. I tasted just like "real" tea, and was called black something or other.

The only herbal tea I can think of that tastes similar to real tea is rooibos. It's naturally caffeine free and is often sold as an herbal blend which is the only way I've ever tried it. I'll let you know if anything else comes to mind.

I love chai, but since I can't really make a decent chai at home (nothing compares to Starbucks or Panera Bread's), I really like this house blend tea I bought at Sally Lunn's in Bath, England. It's delicious made the typical English way, with milk and sugar.
I drink green tea in the mornings though, for health reasons. It took some getting used to, but I quite like it now! I also have some rooibos that I bought at a tea shop in Aachen, Germany...caramel cream flavor. Very good!

Well Yunnan of course! LOL I like blacks and oolongs hot, In the summer I drink greens iced....don't care for them hot. I also like rooibos, it helps the swelling in my ankles. I think Carmel Cream Rooibos is my favorite.

I saw some Caramel Cream Rooibos when I was out shopping today and almost thought of buying it. Hmmm, maybe I'll give it a try.

I like green best, but I also like black, and certain kinds of herbal.

i believe Earl Grey starts with Darjeeling and then adds the bergamot and other flavors - I'll have to try just straight Darjeeling one day.

Yes. There are many varieties of Darjeeling. Ask for the best. That may be very expensive. But a single cup will make you feel heavenly.

You can find it here . I know it can be found in stores, I just don't know which ones. Maybe someone else can chime in on stores that carry it! Denise
