Tea is definitely better than soda. Different studies show that green tea is excellent because it is high in antioxidants which ward of free radicals in your body (help prevent cancer and such). There is no exact evidence for this according to the FDA, but many Asian countries highly believe in this. I would agree with the Asians because they are one of the healthiest people in the world.
Herbal teas are nice because they are free of caffeine. I would reccommend Tazo Tea (it comes in many flavors). The thing is you can't really go wrong with drinking tea unless you do a lot of it, which then you have a probably with caffeine overconsumption. I would highly reccomend a cup of tea each day in place of soda or coffee.
I drank tea everyday since I was little, and I account my great memory to it. Once I stopped drinking everyday, my memory and clarity went downhill. I'm not saying this is the reason why, but I believe it has something to do with it.

Yes, drinking tea is good for you.
If you don't want the caffine look for
caffine free brands. Have fun with
drinking different types.
Some popular blends are:
Green tea is a good one.
Chi Tea is wonderful and
Earl Grey is a great black tea.
There are a number of herbal types.
Enjoy, remember to omit sugar
or use a sweetner that is low in
calories.

Of course it is better than soda. Drink green tea and do not load it with sugar. Make it a little weak some of the time. Brush your teeth more often. Tea stains the teeth.

Tea is a big science.
Green tea is good for your digestive tract.
Black tea is good for relaxation.
Pompadour is good for a BP (blood pressure)
In any case it's better then soda.
