Default Good Earth Original Sweet & Spicy Herb Tea

I bought some Good Earth Original Sweet & Spicy Herb Tea (decaffeinated) and boy howdy this stuff is good. In fact, it's so good that it worries me; it's got to have hidden carbs in it!

Here's what the box says:
Ingredients: rooibos, rose hips, chamomile, cinnamon, lemongrass, peppermint, papaya leaf, anise, orange peel, ginger, artificial and natural flavors.

Contains no sugar, caffeine, artificial colors or preservatives

Our Original tea is naturally sweet & spicy and contains only 3 calories per serving. The sweetness is derived from its herbs & spices.

Again, this tea tastes wonderful! But it also tastes sweet, and too good to be true. So I worry. Do you think that anything that has only 3 calories could have many carbs?

p.s. I wrote an e-mail to the manufacturer requesting both a carb count and a list of what constitutes "artificial" flavors, but I've not heard back.
