mikeknThank you everyone who responded to my first post!
It looks like herbal tea is going to be the first thing I try. The refrigerator here is too small for anything larger then cans or bottles, and it doesn't do ice, so gallons and ice tea are out (although I could add cold water and get close). I've never been much of a tea drinker, but I drink it, unlike coffee which I don't like at all. The VitaminWater is ok, but not something I'd want to pay for long term. For now I'm going to try a few different herbal and decaffeinated teas.
I checked out a few web sites in the process of learning more:
Adagio - Very cool flavors, but I'm not ready to jump to loose tea yet. I'm also going to see what I like and dislike first before starting to mail order anything. I was hoping they have some sort of outlet since they aren't that far away from me, but I didn't find anything.
Celestial Seasonings - Visited their place when we were out visiting my sister. Very neat :) I recommend the peppermint room for clearing up any breathing problems (at least until being in the peppermint room becomes a breathing problem). We have a few of their products at home.
Yogi - Very "new age" feel. I'm not keen on descriptions which need FDA disclaimers for every other line. Still, I found one I'm going to try.
Hit Trader Joe's and picked up their decaffeinated Green Tea, and Yogi Healing Formula Ginger ('cause I like ginger). From home I took the boxes of Celestial Seasonings English Toffee and Sinfully Cinnamon, plus some Bigelow Chamomile. I also grabbed a cup at a time water brewer that we haven't been using.
When I next visit Whole Foods, I'll check out Tea's Tea and their other tea selections.
