something vague Report post Posted February 11, 2006 hello,im addicted to coffee but am trying to get off it,thinking of trying herbal teas,theres so many though,have they got a lot of calories in them though? any ideas which ones to try? Hev, Try camomile, its the only herbal that I like and it is very calming. As far as I can see it has no calories unless you add sugar which I do. The plain camomile bags that aren't blended with other herbs are best and the supermarket brands are cheap and just as good as the famous makes. Its hard to describe the taste but I would suggest if you like licorice, you'll like it (although it doesn't taste of licorice ) The beauty of herbal teas is that you can leave it to get cold and it tastes just as nice - also you don't need to add milk.

Jill Report post Posted February 13, 2006 Hello and welcome! What a marvellous way to introduce yourself. I like tea so strong that it melts the cup, with a tiny dash of milk and no sugar. I only like mellow birds coffee with gallons of milk (or all milk warmed preferably) and one heaped sugar. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
