Dianne - we have a TON of herbal teas on our shelf so that we drink a lot of liquid and keep our taste buds entertained. It's easy to get bored of one flavor if you drink it too much, and then you stop drinking enough liquids. I talk about a lot of them in the tea forum, which is a great place to discuss tea!

I've given up coffee for 2 weeks.. I subsitute water in the morning, and on weekends I make decaf coffee in a press. One day last week when I was out with my friends for breakfast I had 2 cups (I used to drink a 12 cup pot everyday). I was wired, and my breathing was erratic. Not hard for me to leave coffee alone anymore.

So what I'm gathering is if I'm trying to kick the caffeine habit that Green tea probably isn't the BEST way to go.

Dianne - it is a great weaning tool! Anything that reduces your consumption is going to be a help. If going from black tea to green tea helps you, that's great!

I have weaned myself off of high levels of caffeine. I am now down to only the caffeine in my brewed iced black tea and occasional soda.
I can do weeks without and no headaches so I know I am not dependant.

Jase, I've long made my iced tea with decaf bags. That way I can have all I want at night and still sleep.

I have not found a decap tea that I like yet. I am trying greens and such. My friend is a barista and she has brought me some new teas to try.

We found a number of "sampler packs" and are trying random varieties from them, sometimes you come across unusual teas that you happen to love! Another idea is to combine flavors
