favorite herbal teas?

[homebird]

I'm making the switch from coffee/caffiene to herbal teas. What are your favorite flavors/brands? (and links would be great if you have them!)

I'm currently sipping Tension Tamer tea (it's mint/lemon/chamomile).

I can't say about brands but as the herbs themselves go I favor a mixture of Menthol and Lemon balm (Melissa officinalis). Both have a calming effect on the central nervous system and so does chamomile afaik. I still have my coffee in the morning but whenever I am having an onset of anxiety I drink about a litre of this tea per day. I think it does help although ofcourse it can not on it's own combat moderate to severe anxiety it certainly is beneficial and also as a bonus keeps you well hydrated.

I like the Yogi brand teas. When I am feeling anxious I like the Kava Kava. I especially like to take it before bed. Also, I like Traditional Medicinal's Easy Now tea.

I still love a cuppa, so I buy de-caff tea! To relax, Twinings Camomile range is good, honey and vanilla and spiced apple, nice at bedtime, helps you relax.

Mint tea for the win!!

I buy one thats a mixture of peppermint, spearmint and fieldmint. Theres something so timeless about it. Whenever I drink it, it I feel like I'm transported back to ancient china, sitting on a mountain, overlooking the world with a zen like perspective lol!!

One thing to note, is mint relaxes the sphincter of the esophagus and can cause heart burn or reflux in some people. It doesn't for me and I love a lot of mint, but it can for some people.
