Tisanes
Often referred to as “herbal teas,” tisanes contain no part of Camellia sinensis (the tea plant). Instead they are made from various fruits, spices, dried flowers or other botanics and are naturally caffeine free.
Place them in Steaming hot to boiling hot water and let them steep as any tea.

It is a herbal infusion or similar preparation drunk as a beverage or for its mildly medicinal effect.

A tisane, ptisan or herbal "tea" is any herbal infusion not made from the leaves of the tea bush (Camellia sinensis). The English word "tisane" originated from the Greek word πτισάνη (ptisanē), a drink made from pearl barley.

Tisanes can be made with fresh or dried flowers, leaves, seeds or roots, generally by pouring boiling water over the plant parts and letting them steep for a few minutes. Seeds and roots can also be boiled on a stove. The tisane is then strained, sweetened if so desired, and served. Many companies produce herbal tea bags for such infusions. The term is most often used to refer to linden (lime leaf) tea.
