Honeybush and red bush (aka rooibos) are two excellent South African herbal teas that are utterly delicious. Honeybush is hard to find though.

I also keep cardamom tea on hand. It’s delicious.

Chamomile, catnip, pine, a powdered antacid (like calcium carbonate or baking soda), and something with turmeric.

Im…not sure putting baking soda into a glass of water is really, in spirit, a tea. Kind of like saying Kool-Aid and Alka-Seltzer is tea?

I meant the salt-of-carbonate might be effective at mixing with painfully sour teas to make them more palatable for people sensitive to sour food like me.

JudahBenHur ,

Oh right thats actually interesting… whats an example of a tea you’d find painfully sour? I typically think of the bitter realm when it comes to tea

anothercatgirl ,

usually it’s orange and lemon flavored teas, like half-and-half with lemonade. I also tried a very sour cherry-rose tea about a year ago.

Chrysanthemum tea is a favorite of mine.
Excellent on its own or with rock sugar if you’re looking for a sweet treat :)

I love to add ginger too, and some guarana for extra caffeine ;)

Chamomile(relaxation), lavender(relaxation), peppermint(nausea deterrent), and lemon(sore throats and the like). Catnip’s also kinda neat when tea’d; got an interesting flavor to it, but I’m not sure if there’s any therapeutic benefits to that.

Pine needle tea. It’s just pine needles. Maybe it’s the placebo effect, but it always seems to give me a boost when I feel a cold coming on.

High in Vitamin C. Pretty sure I’ve heard it linked to sailors using it to avoid scurvy

Mint and ginger are essential, I try to keep some sort of valerian around too.

Agreed, it pairs well with lots of things in addition to being pleasant by itself.

Mint is my go to herbal tea. Aside from being a great late night tea, it grows like a weed in many places and so you can make your own rather easily!

blackbrook ,

specifically peppermint

folkrav ,

I planted two small, ugly plants in June. By the beginning of August we had so much freaking peppermint we didn’t know what to do with it. Would recommend, such an easy herb to get to grow lol

eating3645 ,

we didn’t know what to do with it

Make tea! Lol

folkrav ,

Yeah, we did herbal tea. And we used it in desserts. And in salads. My wife was drinking like 3 virgin mojitos a day at one point lol. Yet there was pretty much just as much left as we could consume without getting tired of mint - and I’m obsessed with mint. We ended up having to give a bunch out haha.

Hahaha thanks for sharing your minty escapades!

I got into this in a biiiig way when I was recuperating from Covid and Long Covid and had to cut right back on caffeine. I’ve got quite a few of my friends addicted as well. I drink it with oat milk and it’s nearly like Indian chai.

prettybunnys ,

Catnip is wonderful.

I like to mix some catnip and mint to brew my own tea.
