In this alternative glossary of terms and names I am bringing together my writings on the so-called class of non-teas. These are typically herbal concoctions of plants, fruits, and other natural products, but they are not true teas – or they are not the leaves of the true tea tree, or Camellia sinensis. It can be Honeybush, Osmanthus, Rooibos, Mate, Lapacho – this includes more common herbs like Mint, Elderberry and many others. Terms around tea plant are in the main glossary.
