So, fighting off the flu. Everyone at work has been getting it. I have the very early stages of it for the last couple days. Hoarse voice. A little bit of a cough with wheezing and just a tad bit of phlegm in my chest. Sitting at work, drinking mint tea. Why am I so thankful for Mint Tea? It is one of the few that I can drink WITHOUT sugar or honey!

Just curious... for those who like to sweeten their teas... what other teas do you like when you DON'T sweeten them? I do not want to use Stevia or artificial sweeteners.

I don't sweeten teas, either, but there are a lot of good ones that don't really need it ANYWAY. Tazo has a line of "dessert teas" that are kind of sweet on their own. And there are ginger teas. I got a really good one last winter that had a lot of spices in it - cinnamon, ginger, etc - I'll see if I can find it. That was really great on its own, too.

Also great are Celestial Seasonings mixes- peach passion, black cherry etc.. you don't even miss sweetness that much.

Tazo passion tea is really good if you like a fruity tea with floral undertones. Smells wonderful too!

I LOVE TEA...NO SUGAR NEEDED, EVER FOR ME. I drink a lot of Trader Joe's teas, Pomegranate and white tea, Peppermint, Green Tea, a night time tea blend.

My non-Trader Joe's teas are various. I don't like orange flavored tea. Celestial peach, lemon, Chamomile. Tazo Passion tea is good hot or cold, if you drink it cold mix a lemonade Crystal light or drink mix with it over ice.

When I want a sweet treat, I mix hot and warm black tea with a vanilla premier shake. It's like having a British tea with sweet cream, no sugar needed and you get a serving of protein.

I have more ideas, but it really depends on your tea preference.
