Alternate Tea bags

[chairborne commando]

Has anyone heard of, or used, Vitamin B tea bags?

I was looking at a list of items for a B.O.B. and it included
Ginseng, Vitamin B ,Chamomile and Echinacea tea bags
as well as regular ones.

The list also included such esoterica as a bottle of Ovaltine
(isn't that more-or less chocolate milk powder?) and a bottle of
Cayenne tablets (455 mg ea)(?)

I know of the chamomile and Echinacea T-bags but the tea would be terribly bitter with the Echinacea, never heard of vitamin B tea. Ovaltine is a malted barley type mix, much more nutritious than chocolate milk powder.

I throw a mint tea bag in with my Echinacea tea bag for much better tasteing tea.

I drink the Echinacea tea straight and while it isn't tasty I just sort of get it down. I was told as a child that medicine isn't supposed to taste good, although I'm thinking I'm probably just not that sensitive to bitter tastes. Goldenseal is pretty nasty though (I choke that one down too, though).

I don't mess much with teabags but for the 'nasty' tasting teas I mix with a bit of columbian coffee. I've become sorta partial to Don Franciscos blends..the butterscotch blend has me hooked..sigh. Half and half of each tea/coffee in my 2-cup drip machine usually..sometimes less coffee. Works OK in my metal 'teabag' (not recalling the proper name for it) too for a lighter 'off-the-top' brew.
