Sweet or flavored teas tend to appeal more to a wide audience, but a lot of them don't actually contain any tea leaves because they're hibiscus based. I have to confess... when people say they're a tea drinker and what they really mean is that they like Celestial Seasonings lemon zinger, I think, "... oh. So not really a tea drinker, then."

Adagio deals in all loose-leaf, as far as I know--if it doesn't, the fandom blends do. That said, the majority of the loose-leaf blends I've purchased from Adagio and other places are based on rooiboos since I try to avoid caffeine, and it seems to be discounted as "not tea" in a similar way.

I had no idea about most store-bought ones being hibiscus-based, though! Very interesting.

Well, technically it's not tea, because tea is what's made from the leaves of the Camellia sinensis plant. "Teas" based on rooibos or hibiscus are tisanes.

That makes more sense! I didn't have the time to search about the topic, so I appreciate the technical explanation.
