I have a crap stomach which tolerates red wine more than it does coffee and tea - even many of the herbal teas. I do like Red Seal Relaxing Tea and Sweet Dreams Tea - even Alpine Tea but I'm looking for something which won't sedate me or clean me out when I don't need either things. I'm not that fond of Chamomile. Peppermint or Fennel. Any suggestions?

paora-tm ,are you wanting a fruity herbal tea? If so I recommend
I do not drink ordinary tea at all and have occasional drinks of coffee and ice teas, but when it comes to herbal teas I have tried most of Healtheries' fruity herbal teas and enjoyed most of them but the one above is my fav. I have not found that the herbal teas "sedate me or clean me out" at all.
Hope that helps. :-))

My favorites at the moment are persimmon, loquat, mulberry, dakudami leaf teas, really delicious. I also enjoy regularly drinking cassia seed tea. I myself don't like chamomile, peppermint or fennel flavours as well, but I like chrysanthemum tea. Most of these teas I buy from Korean shops, they have large variety of teas of all sorts and all good quality. I discovered these teas after giving up on caffeine.

234sam, thanks, I have tried a few fruity teas. I don't mind them occasionally but I'm really looking for something like the ones I mention - something that doesn't really taste like anything and doesn't have the sweet taste of fruity teas.

Thanks lenart, I might check out some of those. I just checked the packets for the Relaxing Tea and the Sweet Dreams Tea and I notice they both contain Peppermint and Chamomile. lol They also both have Passionflower and Valerian root. I'll have to check to see if Red Seal make a combination daytime tea.

We grow our own tea (Camellia sinensis) and all we do is pick the tips (growing tips and first two young leaves) and then put in a box with a bit of handy towel, leave to dry (approx. a week) and then use that to make our tea. It is a nice mild tea and like sarahb5 says, nice with a bit of ginger and lemon (or honey) if you feel like a change. If you Google the plant you will find lots of nurseries that sell it - and the bonus is that it is a lovely bush.

Twinnings cranberry and raspberry tea is nice, lots of flavour and nice either hot or as an iced tea.
