This is a British instance and we love our tea.

Welcome to the tea community. As the leading British Lemmy instance it is a disgrace that none of you stated this sooner.
So here we are for all tea needs - tea news, tea memes, tea recommendations and on and on.
Now for the difficult bit: I don't drink much tea. Not a slight on the nation's favourite brew, I just don't drink hot drinks beyond the occasional lukewarm chocolate. So if there's a safe pair of hands out there who loves a brew then let me know.
Tisanes? Or just C. sinensis?
Not sure I understand the question but the former would fit, the latter... not so much.
Ah, The former, being tisanes, a.k.a. herbal teas or herbal infusions would be the outlier, so I asked. Tea or Cha is an infusion of the evergreen shrub, Camellia sinensis, and would be the latter. Hopefully I've clarified for you, and now I'll need some clarification from you. :-D
If you Google C. sinensis, you get Clonorchis sinensis - the Chinese liver fluke.
Ah ha ha ha! Also Cordyceps sinensis. I'll pass on the liver fluke tea, thanks.
But you've avoided answering my questions: Tisanes ok? Tea only?
Oh sorry, yeah sure - I'd personally count tea as any plant steeped in hot water. Although that technically rules out magic mushroom tea, so I may be flexible there. Just no fluke tea.
If my ex mother-in-law made you a cup of tea it was a fluke if it was drinkable.
