Favorite flavor/brand of tea?
Permalink Closed


I think this has been asked before over on FH, but I just started drinking more tea and would love to hear everyone's favorites.  I have been drinking it at night to relax before bed.  Since I am pregnant right now, I am more interested in decaffeinated tea but would love to hear whatever recommendations you have.  I've tried Cellestial Seasonings and Tazo and they were okay but I need to find a favorite!

Celestial Seasonings Peppermint and Tension Tamer are my favorites.

I almost exclusively drink Stash tea - right now I'm into Peppermint Green Tea, Chai Spice, and Vanilla Nut Creme.

i love tazo tea - my favorites are calm, awake, and zen


i love any kind of mint teas, and my favorite is celestial seasonings magic mint


i also love lady grey and earl grey tea, i usually get twinings for those


my absolute favorite brand of tea is the republic of tea, but they are pricey (like $12 a container in stores, $9 on the website), so i drink them infrequently. http://www.republicoftea.com/  - my favorites are the orange ginger mint and the cardamom cinnamon.  the LE rose petal tea is *amazing* - definitely recommend it. i'm thinking of stock-piling it before they pull it from the shelves!

Right now I'm drinking Trader Joe's Bed Time Tea - I think it's a mix of chamomile and mint, and it's very tasty, delicate and relaxing.  No caffeine.  I also have had a delicious licorice tea before, though i can't remember the brand, it was amazing.  I don't like black licorice candy, but the tea tasted good.


I hope you and the baby are doing well!

Have you heard they are pulling the tea off the shelves? I love this stuff.

ALB -


I am all about Celestial Seasonings Honey Vanilla Camomile before bed.


Puts me out.


 


ETA -  I have heard not to drink Green Tea during pregnancy, it is not safe.

MY absolutel favorite is the Republic of Tea Ginger Peach. OMG this stuff is amazing.


I've had a bunch of Tazo teas which I've liked, including the chammomile, the green tea, and I think it called the "passion" tea which is in a red packet.


I also like Celstial Seasonings Honey Vanilla Chammomile and Strawberry Kiwi.

Tazo -- awake, earl grey, lemon mate, zen


celestial seasonings -- peppermint, tension tamer, sleepytime, and their green tea line (w/ mint, antioxident, organic)


eden foods -- organic genmaicha green tea with toasted brown rice (its kind of nutty) and kukicha twig tea

Choice Organic Bancha tea, as well as Decaf green tea from the same company.


Bancha tastes better (I think Bancha is just toasted green tea...?)

Wow, thanks everyone for the suggestions!  Those all sounds great!  I also heard from a coworker who swears by all flavors of Mighty Leaf teas.  Has anyone tried these?  They sell them at Dean & Deluca.  She gave me a packet--I am going to try it tonight.


Karina--I'll have to check on the green tea thing--thanks!

My absolute favorite is Good Earth Jasmine Green Tea.  I would suggest buying it online though because it is hard to find in stores and you get a much better deal.

I drink sooooo much tea, and pretty much like most of them. I like peppermint, earl grey, and almost any fruit tea. I also really like Orange Spice and Passion from Starbucks.

I like Tazo best.  I usually drink zen but also like awake, lotus, green ginger and wild sweet orange.

I like the simple Earl Grey Breakfast Tea that comes in the long red box. You can just buy it at the supermarket...everyone carries it i'm pretty sure.


If you want something a little more exotic, I have a ton of flavors from this company- http://www.portorico.com/
