I'm in a tea rut! I drink yogi blueberry green tea, and Yerba mate. I'm interested in some other varieties, but hate buying a new box to end up disliking it (looking at you, chamomile). Tell me your go-to(s)!

    I drink two cups of yogi green tea (vitality) daily and squeeze half a lemon into it. It ends up tasting mostly like lemon but I love the vitamin C boost and it's awesome for your metabolism. It does suck to open a box and not enjoy it cause organic tea is not cheap!! Good luck

    I love cranberry pomegranate green tea from STASH. I have to buy it in the 100 bag box from amazon bc I drink so much. I also like orange spice black tea for when I need a bolder flavor

    My two favorite teas are:
    Candy-Cane-Tea.png
    This is a vanilla and peppermint tea. I have it literally year round and it tastes like christmas in a cup. Trust me, this one is a winner! Green tea and decaf.

    This one is a black tea so it's much darker, stronger, and refreshing. I LOVE this tea. :)

    Go to one of those fancy tea places and take some samplers on offer. I like the roobios and the chai.

    Celestial Seasonings Bengal Spice. It is amazing and naturally sweet. The "better" more high quality version I find very similar is Harney and Sons-Hot Cinnamon Sunset. It is caffeinated though and expensive for how much I like to drink tea.

    I'm missing out! I live in fairbanks, Alaska. We don't have any specialty tea stores, but we do have a co-op and a health food store. I'll check out their loose leaf varieties! Thanks for the inspiration, everyone!

    Lemon balm. Also Lemon grass. They have a calming effect. :)
    Peppermint because it is a little bit of a pick up,
    I have some white tea in the cupboard but I am not fond of it for some reason.
    Hubby loves the ginger tea I get for him.

    The chais tend to be my favorite, the spicier the better.

    I tried Earl Grey green tea last night, and it was incredible. I normally force myself to drink green tea but this was delicious!

    I love Stash teas; got addicted when I went to England. My favorites:

    Caffeinated:
    Black Chai Spice
    Double Bergamot Earl Grey (the regular is good too; this tastes more orangey)
    White Peach Oolong (yum!)

    Decaf:
    Spice Dragon Red Tea (not really tea--red tea comes from a plant in South Africa. This tastes like apple cider without the sugar or calories.)
    Licorice Spice Tea (don't steep too long unless you're having stomach issues; tastes great)

    2 others I like are Cinnamon Vanilla (any brand but Tazo--yuck!) and Yogi Mint Revitalizing Energy tea.
