    I only drink tea occasionally, but I've been happy with The Republic of Tea brand. Right now I have the Orange Spice Green Tea flavor and it's delicious, but I don't think it's caffiene free. Their website lists all the flavors they have that are caffiene free

    I'm not sure where you are located, but Cost Plus World Market carries a good selection of tea. I always enjoy going there and finding something new.

    Thanks for this thread. I have been getting some sort of palpitations and perhaps they are PVCs also.

    I need to seriously cut back on coffee. I am a total slug until I have a couple strong cups. Time to detox with herbal teas. Then having a cup with be a treat-not a necessity.

    I am caffeine sensitive, as I have found that stuff gives me the jitters something fierce! So, my tea tends to be Good Earth's Original Sweet and Spicy herb tea. Brew it a bit strong and it doesn't need sugar.

    There's a great tea shop in Forest Park on Madison near Harlem called Todd and Holland. They also have a website you can order from, but it's more fun to drop in and have tea!

    I've had to give up caffiene because of MVP, anxiety and reflux. I really miss a good cup of dark roast coffee

    Republic of Tea just came out with an Apple Cider herbal tea. It's really great!

    Haven't tried it yet--I'm saving it to take to work tomorrow. I'll let you know what I think!

    Quillfred--if the palpitations keep up, it would be a good idea to see your doc. Mine were benign, but not all are.

    I remember trying Good Earth's Sweet and Spicy and finding it to be way too sweet for me!

    I woke up from a nap today really wanting a cup of coffee, mainly for the taste. Held off even making decaf, and had some Sweet Coconut Chai decaf instead.

    I love the tea mentioned in the post...Madagascar Vanilla red roobis (sp?)...yum!

    Also, I like Stash's peppermint as well as their decaf vanilla chai (the latter may have caffeine, despite it being decaf).

    Who makes this??? It sounds delicious! This thread inspired me, and I went to the store and got some Stash Mango decaf. I'll report after tomorrow afternoon's tea time. (I drink plain old Lipton decaf black tea with skim all morning, and switch to flavored or green in the afternoon. Weird, right?)

    One of my current favorites is Celestial Seasonings True Blueberry. I expected just so-so blueberry flavor, but this is really great blueberry flavor. It's wonderful hot and even better iced.
