Does anyone have any tea recommendations that donβt have caffeine? Iβm not a big fan of floral flavors but I can give it a try if you recommend it enough

What country are you in? Most of the British tea brands do good decaf versions

I love green tea. Have been drinking it for years.
Just don't fuck up the steeping time and temperature.
2 mins @ 80Β°C is what i mostly do.
Also some green teas are really grassy/fishy.
Took me a few tries to find one that tastes just nice.
I drink tea because I like having something warm to sip and hot chocolate has to much sugar and coffee taste like poo. My favorite is lemon or peach tea.
boba tea because fun
is homemade
Used to be addicted to only coffee but an Ireland trip introduced me to the idea of tea with milk.
Now it's coffee during working hours, Yorkshire tea with (vanilla soy) milk otherwise.
Why?
I am addicted to coffein and really like the taste of (milky) tea
I can also justify my addiction with the various health benefits from both coffee and tea (which even complement each other a bit).
I also have some green matcha tea occasionally, or a Matcha Latte, as I find the taste of matcha rather intriguing.
I like caffeine, don't like coffee.
I mostly drink Pu-Erh, but I got a craving for green tea on my last order and accidentally ordered a way bigger bag than I intended. So I've been working through that for a while.
I drink a lot of jasmine green tea. Nothing fancy, just Twinnings usually.
I make a pot and a mug (drink the mug while the pot steeps) most mornings, which is around a litre of liquid that hydrates and caffinates me enough to contemplate doing something productive, and leaves my mouth and body feeling clean and fresh.
I drink black coffee sometimes too but only when I need a faster pick me up. Compared to tea though, it feels jarring, leaves my mouth tasting bad and makes my sweat and urine smell awful.
I usually add a peach wedge and a pinch of ginger
It's good and refreshing. Being British has nothing to do with it.
