Rooiboos Tea is awesome! In case you aren't familiar with it, Rooibos “Red Tea”: Sweet smooth taste with 50 times the antioxidant properties of Green tea.
Found it at my co op and it is becoming more popular in this country. I also love the Yogi Tea Chai's, any of them,.

I love tea. I drink chamomile, rooibos, slippery elm, and any other mixture as long as it's not caffeinated or has mint in it. I love mint teas, but my acid reflux doesn't.

I've never had slippery elm tea. I'll give it a try. Sorry about the acid reflux.

slippery elm is especially wonderful if you have a sore throat. It's very soothing.

I haven't tried this one but it sounds yummy.
My son is in Oregon and he dumpsters where they package Yogi tea. He sends me tons of what he gets and that is how I first tried Yogi teas. I haven't bought them in quite awhile but i will buy the one you mentioned!

I could've sworn I replied already...
But anyway, I drink some green tea, but my favourites are English Breakfast, Irish Breakfast, Earl Grey, and Prince of Wales.
I have to have one of my British friends send me the Irish breakfast and Prince of Wales as I live in a small town where everybody drinks coffee (which I can't stand).

I drink mostly green(NOW organic), rooibos, and herb teas (red clover is nice) You should try Cocoa Loco, which is a blend of rooibos, chocolate, and vanilla at www.serendipitea.com
I love their green teas too! What a blast shopping there and trying out new flavors. I did find a few of their teas at Central Market.

- Jasmine
- Chai
- Herbal blends (Blackberry Sage by the Republic of Tea is my favorite)
- Green Bergamot (sp?)
- Orange hibiscus

- White
TEA RULES!

I've been drinking tea for a while now. There's something comforting about the ritual of waiting for the water to cool off enough to drink it.
I've turned my boyfriend into a tea junkie.
A couple of weeks ago I had to declare a moratorium on buying more tea until we finished what we had.
The ones that go fastest in our house are all from The Tea Source (www.teasource.com)
Best darn tea anywhere. It's also nice that when you email a question to the site, you get a very quick reply from the owner of the store (who is also the guy that does the buying), and he's extremely knowledgable.
THe most popular in this house is the Tea Source Three Brothers herbal, Organic Peppermint and the Strong Assam.
I tend to drink a lot of jasmine and the boyfriend drinks a lot of lemon sunset (which is the only tea that I have ever met that I haven't liked).

^^^^^^^^ Yes! Jasmine is the best. I don't understand why many people don't like jasmine, it's delicious, especially the green/jasmine blends. Mmmm.

I like a lot of tea, I don't drink any herbal tea though. My favorites are quimen, rose petal black, jasmine pearl, frozen summit, and pan roasted green. I shop here. (http://www.taooftea.com/index1.php3?id=)
