Cocoa Spice Tea
Another favorite tea that i have a lot is Yogi Tea’s Mayan Cocoa Spice Tea. It is good black, hot or cold, and also with soymilk and sugar, for a special treat. Try it for the Christmas holidays, and also in summer with fresh fruit.

Plum Tea
Sugar Plum Spice Tea
Last year around November, i found Sugar Plum Spice Tea by Celestial Seasonings at a health food store. I tried it and loved it. When i realized that it was a seasonal tea, i bought another box, which was quickly gone. This year as soon as i saw it, i bought four boxes, and the next week, i bought another three. Hopefully that will see me through the year. I’m looking forward to trying it in the summer. I think it will be great with summer fruit. Celestial Seasonings makes another three or so holiday teas, but this is my favorite.

Favorite Herb Teas
Favorite Herb Teas
From left to right:
Acai Mango Zinger – Celestial Seasonings (mild and tropical)
Red Raspberry – Bigelow (really tastes of raspberry, be careful not to get their raspberry black tea)
Chocolate Mint Truffle – Mighty Leaf (Absolutely delicious, but pricey: $8.99 for 15 bags)
Twig Tea – Choice (Japanese tea without caffeine made from tea twigs, really soothing)
Classic India Spice – Yogi Tea (chai without the caffeine)
Organic Spicy Ginger – Tazo (quite different from the India Spice, goes with Asian food quite well)
Lemon Zinger – Celestial Seasonings (a classic, adds a sharp, crisp flavor to the day)
True Blueberry – Celestial Seasonings (sweet and fruity)
I drink a lot of herb teas. I try almost everything i see, and have developed some favorites that i alternate.
Usually when i get up in the morning, i put on the kettle and make about 5 big cups of tea which i refrigerate unless it is really cold outside. I drink it with breakfast, lunch, and supper, and between those. For some reason, i like almost all tea cold unless it has soymilk and sugar, which i don’t usually use. Whenever i have the munchies, i have some tea, and with all the delicious teas to choose from, i often don’t want anything else. After a few weeks without sugar, i didn’t even miss that.
