Herbal teas?

I'm not usually fond of herbal teas, since they usually taste like grass. Twining's makes a pretty decent one, though, called Herbal Revive Cherries and Madagascan Cinnamon. It's not half bad, even though I'm a die-hard black tea lover.

By the way, it's the most shocking shade of pink/magenta that I've ever seen in tea.

Word of warning, though. It apparently has enough acid in it to curdle milk. I just tried making it with a little half & half added, and I had to dump the enire mug of it.

I can stand peppermint tea if I have to, I drink it if I have an upset stomach and sometimes (very rarely) I actually feel like some.

but overall I hate herbal teas and I'm not a black tea lover either. I'll drink the occasional cup of tea.

Unfortunately, I'm a die hard coffee lover. Tea tastes so insipid to me after good coffee.

The only way I can stand coffee is iced with vanilla syrup and cream. Mint tea is just . A good, mild black tea like Twining's Prince of Wales blend, with a tad of sugar and half & half, is very, very yummy, though.
