What to know about herbal tea
Herbal tea is not really one drink, it is dozens, and that is the whole story. As caffeine-free infusions they are among the gentlest hot drinks, clean on gluten, lactose and FODMAPs, which is why they are a go-to when coffee and black tea are off the table. What varies is the herb. Peppermint and some others are salicylate-rich, a few can nudge histamine release, and stronger brews push the oxalate up a little. There is no blanket answer: the safety depends entirely on which plant is in the cup.
Watch for
- Caffeine-free, which is the main reason people reach for it over coffee or black tea
- It depends on the herb: peppermint in particular is salicylate-rich, so a salicylate-sensitive person can react to peppermint tea while ginger or a plain infusion is fine
- A few herbs are mild histamine liberators, so histamine-sensitive drinkers should watch strong or blended teas rather than assume every herbal tea is safe
- Chamomile is in the ragweed and daisy family, so people with that pollen allergy can react to chamomile tea specifically
