I would like to know what tea is best for pretty muchevery situation.Such as relaxing, waking up, going to sleep, active, sad, happy, sick, talking, thinking, deep thought =), listening to music (especially), morning, night, noon, dusk, just drinking tea, anything other situation, emotion, activity you can think of.I prefer herbal, hot teas. I don't really drink any cold tea, and I think that Lipton, Nestea, and mostly any other name brand cold teas are disgusting. Especially if they are carbonated... ugh.Thanks!

Ok, we're talking herbal.My personal experiences:In terms of relaxation/going to sleep - I have used Valerian, and Chamomile. Strangely enough, I've had adverse reactions to chamomile - it's actually made me nervous and upset! It may operate on the homeopathic principle of "hair of the dog that bit you" ie. minute ammounts of caffeine when you're tired may put you to sleep - but in this case, I wasn't tired enough/upset enough for the chamomile so it just made me worse! (No caf in chamomile obviously, just an example) Hope that makes sense!A teaspoon of dried valerian calms me and puts me to sleep. I recommend it but the smell of it in a container is enough to drive people into the next room!Green tea would be a good choice for waking up I believe, but if you really wanted a kick I'd go the old English traditional teas.Dandelion tea is wonderful to get rid of water retention problems - one of natures most powerful diuretics and liver tonics with NO SIDE EFFECTS - a good everyday drinking tea and coffee replacement. I get a roasted dandelion root with chicory.A tea to drink at Christmas? CHAI! I'm not mad on the stuff myself but it tastes just like Christmas pudding to me!As far as all day drinking? My favourite right now is green tea with spearmint and peppermint, a teaspoon of sugar (I know, I know) and a good squeeze of lemon. YUM. JASMINE, too! Lest we forget!I think name brand teas are gross too, ROCK ON!
