@K5Rakitan Anyway, my suggestion are fruit teas, especially during the warmer months. We're going into winter so it might not be appropriate. Fruit teas can give a slight taste of fruit without the sugar that's in juice. Usually prepared cold, and you need to leave it in the fridge for a day.

Lemon Honey Tea if they're sick with a sore throat (well it's technically not tea).

Just pour a about a quarter cup of honey, boil water and pour in the water then squeeze lemon on top and stir.

If you can get Lady Grey, it's sweeter and more floral than Earl Grey. He may also surprise you and take to smoky teas like Russian Caravan. Mine's a filthy little barbarian and will only drink bog standard Builder's tea with milk and sugar. I've managed to discourage the sugar but he has no appreciation for fine teas whatsoever. Mind, I didn't at that age.

A specialist tea shop may well have some samples. We have Whittards in the UK, and my local will always give some samples if I ask.

And - oh - could you get a tea advent calendar?? I know Pukka teas do one. I got mine off amazon. You get a full selection of white, green, fruit and black teas that way.

Oh yes, definitely want some Russian Caravan! The grocery store I shopped at during university had some in the bulk tea section, and I loved it!
