    You should try Constant Comment. It's black tea flavored with orange rind and spices. It's a nice change!
    My favorites are Lipton Chai, Stash Ginger Peach Green Tea, and my go-to tea nearly every day is orange pekoe, with a lemon wedge, and a packet of stevia.
    Have you concidered looking at non-commercial teas? Rose Hips make a good tea and are very high in Vitamin C. Honeysuckle tea (brew washed fllowers in a tea ball... add a little stevia) contain an antiviral, I'm told. You can grow your own Chamomile, which is very relaxing. Garden mints (peppermint, spearmint, chocolate mint, etc.) brew up nicely... again, use a tea ball... and have a carmitive effect. Mint is also good for colds, as the menthol breaks up congestion. Most fruit peels make a nice tea. Some will require Stevia, to taste. (Especially citrus).

    Those all sound very good!

    And thanks for all the replies :bigsmile:

    I love celestial seasonings apple cinnamon tea, great with a splash of skim milk and 2 splendas, or even without sweetener as it is naturally sweet.

    I'm a huge tea drinker, and pretty much try all kinds. Some I enjoy:
    - cream of earl grey (variation of EG that's really yummy)
    - peppermint tea/mint melanges
    - black currant black tea
    - various rooibos (vanilla, colada, blueberry, etc)
    - orange oolong
    - pomegranate white tea

    I pretty much just go into tea stores and order random teas every time to try them out. So many good ones! I buy them loose leaf and make reuse a metal steeper.

    Okay, apparently, I have some Bigelow herbal tea in my kitchen :laugh:

    If anyone is interested, it's not caffeinated. It's called I Love Lemon Herbal Tea. The ingredients are Rose Hips, Lemon Grass, Natural Lemon Flavor, Lemon Peel, Lemon Verbena, Peppermint Leaves, Vitamin C, Hibiscus Flowers, and Citric Acid.
    It's also gluten-free! :D It's sooo yummy with a teensy bit of fresh ground nutmeg and a teaspoon of sugar. It'd be AMAZING with honey, but I threw mine away earlier because it got chunky. lol

    Celestial Seasonings, Tension Tamer. Such a soothing mix, I love it muchly. I also adore their peppermint herbal tea. It helps that the Celestial Seasonings plant is a twenty minute drive from my house, they have a wonderful store where I can buy all of the teas cheaper than the supermarket.

    I love a lot of the teas made by a brand called Honest Tea. There organic, not super sweet, low in calories and delicious! I get them at my grocery store but you can also get them online. My favorite is the Sublime Mate and the Half-and-Half (tea and lemonade). They also make pouches for kids that I like to bring with me to work.

    I'm hooked on chai tea, I have several different varieties at home. If you're just looking for tea bags, Stash or Tazo are my favorites, but if you want loose teas, Teavana has so many different choices

    I'm a huge fan of chai, as well.

    Chinese Puu-Erh tea. Clean and herbal.
    I also like rose tea; you can find it at any Chinese tea shop -- it's literally rose buds steeped in water. So amazing for the complexion and stomach. :)
