I love camomile - it helps with nerve pain that I have, and with anxiety. Also I have ginger tea when I have headaches or stomach issues

fairyqueen · 18/10/2020 21:29

Pukkas elderberry and echinacea.

I love most herbal teas, especially Melissa and Peppermint. I usually would have melissa in the evening as it's meant to be good for sleep and relaxation and I have peppermint if I feel like I've overeaten or if I feel a bit sick.

Pukka do some interesting combinations, what sort of flavours do you like?

Plussizejumpsuit · 18/10/2020 21:32

Celestial seasonings. Sleepy tea is the best. But their tension tamer and spiced one with a tiger on it are lovely too. You can get it from whole foods or online.

I also like camomile and spiced apple or a version of this at this time of year. Twinnings do one as do some other supermarkets.

I also like mint teas with spearmint in. A few brands do them.

I like taylors sweet rhubarb and just got some spiced apple from m&s which is also lovely and only £1!

pinkbalconyrailing · 18/10/2020 21:33

I like fennel seed tea.
or rose hip.
or yogi spiced teas

Chicchicchicchiclana · 18/10/2020 21:35

Peppermint! delicious. I don't really like any others, tbh.

homemadecommunistrussia · 18/10/2020 21:37

Also twinings cherry and cinnamon...

Grapesoda7 · 18/10/2020 21:40

I've just bought Pukka cinnamon and apple, which is nice.

Not tea, but I've been having Belvoir ginger cordial with hot water and a little bit of honey. It's lovely if you like ginger.

The English Tea Company Superberries is the fruitiest tea I've ever tasted. Really strong flavour. Lovely!

TheoneandObi · 18/10/2020 21:42

I love liquorice and mint, chamomile, chai, turmeric. Pretty much any herbal tea that's not fruity. Fruity ones set my teeth on edge.

AcornsVsBcorns · 18/10/2020 21:42

Sorry English Tea Shop. These: www.amazon.co.uk/English-Tea-Shop-Berries-Sachets/dp/B0083TQVT4

HelpMeh · 18/10/2020 21:46

Peppermint
Rooibos & cinnamon
Anything with lots of orange
Jasmine

I really dislike the fact that so many nice flavours are mixed with bitter green tea. I hate green tea.

fridaseyebrows · 18/10/2020 21:53

Bird and blend have some amazing ones - bears love marmalade and strawberry lemonade are my faves - dozy girl is fab too

fridaseyebrows · 18/10/2020 21:55

Bird and Blend

Nosuchthingastoomuchcheese · 18/10/2020 21:57

Buy a selection box from Lady Liver Tea - she's an independent tea maker. Can highly recommend Calm Your Pants and Herbal Heaven.

TheBabyAteMyBrain · 18/10/2020 21:58

I love fresh nettle tea.

PastramiNoRye · 18/10/2020 22:08

Morrisons do some nice ones. The last couple I had were apple and maple syrup and spiced winter tea. They do a strawberry and rhubarb one too.

myohmywhatawonderfulday · 18/10/2020 22:12

There are these teas called Yogi teas and they come with a little encouraging thing on the tea bag string. I like them for that!

Choco one is nice - as long as you expect a hint of chocolate rather than anything that tastes chocolatey.

mama4321 · 18/10/2020 22:24

@Nosuchthingastoomuchcheese If you don't like liquorice and fennel (I don't either) read the ingredients carefully. I was given a lovely selection box of Pukka teas but they all contained liquorice root which I could really taste.

Nosuchthingastoomuchcheese · 19/10/2020 09:29

Thanks everyone!

Yogi teas are the best I've had as they are strong flavoured
