    I've heard that oolong tea is a metabolism booster. It doesn't taste very good though. I like chamomile, catnip and hops tea to help me relax. And yerba mate gives me a kick.

    there's a catnip tea for humans? and it relaxes you rather than jacks you up? lol. strange.

    Yes, catnip is sometimes included in teas that are supposed to calm you down.

    I had apple + vanilla and it was heaven. Then I purchase a blueberry + vanilla. I had peppermint today and it's so refreshing, I have to purchase a new box because it's almost gone in less than a month. Vanilla chai, definitely. And I would like to try chocolate chai. I just found out that I have a weird fetiche with vanilla. LOL

    Green tea, chamomile, peppermint, nettle and variations of these. My absolute favorite tea at the moment is Sleepytime from Celestial :)

    My favorite way to do herbal tea:

    http://www.herbshealing.com/How_to_make_Infusions.htm

    My favorites are linden, raspberry leaf, red clover, and oatstraw. This is what we drink at my house instead of water. :drinker:

    ETA: About the catnip tea -- it's great, but if you have cats, do not leave that cup unattended. Seriously, don't (naughty kittehs!).

    Twinings do a lovely buttermint tea - smells like Murray Mints :) (not sure that will mean much to anyone not in the UK!) and I'm also drinking their gingerbread green tea at the moment which is awesome.

    The buttermint one sounds yummy!
    I haven't tried the gingerbread green tea yet, but I am loving their salted caramel green tea - it's delicious!

    I love red bush tea (rooibos) It's lovely and full of anti oxidants so really good for you. I rarely drink regular tea these days, red bush is my hot drink of choice :smile:

    Spice & Tea Exchange sells an awesome ginger turmeric tea, I've been drinking a lot of that lately. I like anything with ginger or mint.

    i like herbal teas as i don't do caffeine. my favorite is probably celestial seasonings lemon zinger, but make note that it tastes best (to me, at least) made with 6 ounces of water rather than the 8 they suggest.
