Default recommendation for herbal tea??

I'd ask at Whole Foods what they would recommend. But my experience is
that nothing tastes like tea but tea. I personally like the Zingers,
but also licorice tea, ginger tea, and chocolate mint rooibus. You
might try a plain rooibus, and experiment from there. Toci
