Welcome Kristin and good luck on your journey! I am sure you will do well and learn alot at this forum. I am a tea drinker too, so here are my thoughts!

I drink alot of decaf tea on this WOE, but I am on Schwarzbein, so can't have any artificial sweetners and use stevia instead.

My latest favorite is Stash tea bags - Decaf Vanilla Nut Creme, Decafe Caramel Creme, Decaf Earl Grey, Decaf Green.

I mix 2 tea bags of vanilla nut, 2 bags of caramel, and 2 bags of green(for extra antioxidants) in a large tea pot. Add a few shakes of stevia for sweetness, and drink this throughout the day. Sometimes I will make another pot later, different flavors for variety. This is sooo much more economical than buying bottled teas, also you can control sweetness by adding whatever sweetner is allowed on your plan. Stash teas have sooo many flavors I never get bored. I have them hot with coconut milk (high in linoic acid) and heavy cream or cold served over ice.

Good luck to you!
