herbal teas

Steeped plant drinks

Herbal teas are beverages made by steeping plant materials—leaves, flowers, roots, or bark—in hot water.

Unlike true teas (black, green, oolong), they contain no leaves from the tea plant and are typically caffeine-free.

Common varieties include chamomile, peppermint, and rooibos.
