    Green rooibos with muscat is my summer choice! But Japanese mugicha also has no caffeine with a more robust flavor of that’s what you’re looking for. I like Twinnings wild berries mix when I want something fruity with a bit of tartness.

    It does, the amount is low, but it has it. Black tea and Oolong type tea both have more caffeine than green, so they are no good for this either.
    Milk tea has alot of caffeine. (that's for any of the flavors that use tea leaves (like green tea, black tea, jasmine tea, thai tea, oolong tea))
    Jasmine tea usually seems to have more caffeine than plain green tea. (But because it's often labeled just 'jasmine tea', it's possible that my bad experiences with it [using several different brands] are because it was jasmine with black tea.)


    Matcha also has alot of caffeine.

    Herbal teas are your best bet.

    For zero caffeine, herbals are your best bet. Most previous recommendations (chamomile, mint, etc.) are good, though I want to add rose hip to the list.
    If you're looking for something robust Raspberry root is pretty strong, though it can be a bit of an acquired taste.

    For less caffeine, stay in the decafs or the greens (except for matcha).

    You can try aloe tea. It tastes really good and easy to make.

    Try sampler packs like from Celestial Seasonings, Bigrlow, or Tazo.I'm not sure if Twining has an herbal sampler, but they do have some milder teas like Lady Grey or Darjeeling that do have caffeine, but are not as strong as some of then other varieties.

    I haven't tried it myself, but there's also Alaska Chagga, which comes from mushrooms.

    I think Twinnings had an infusions sampler with peppermint, ginger&lemon and chamomile.

    I use fruit hibiscus tea in place of juice. My kids love that. I use a little stevia and they love it. It’s great in place of juice boxes and stuff that’s filled with sugar. If your looking for a juice replacement, or trying to loose weight, I highly recommend it.

    I'm recently obsessed with mixing my own chrysanthemum, wolfberry and dried longan blend. It's deliciously sweet and soothing.

    Which beverage has most caffeine? Energy drinks. You know, Monster. All energy drinks (not to be confused with isotonic drinks, though they may also make the same sins) have more caffeine than most types of coffee.

    That video though. I don't know what to say. :blobsleepless: I kind of want to compliment their branding/design if it was on purpose. But that thing in the name is not a cross, why does she call it one?
    How did you get to that video/find it?

    I can see the cross. The horizontal part of the “cross” comes from the top of the “o,” which is flat. That being said, I think she’s crazy.

    That also being said, energy drinks are supposed to be really bad for you because of how much caffeine (and sugar, I think?) they have in them. Do not drink often.

    Hmm, I still don't think it looks like a cross.
    "That being said, I think she’s crazy" That goes without saying.
    I agree entirely with that warning.
    I can't drink any, let alone often. My heart does weird beats with just coffee or milk tea. I'd be afraid of it stopping if I drank energy drinks.
    My brother loves drinking Monster though.
