I am allergic to many fruits, especially citrus, so cannot list any off the top of my head, as even the blueberry tea has citrus in it, sigh. I have some Celestial Seasonings $1 off a box coupons that don't expire until April 15 - want a couple?
Looks like I have some tea to give away. I'll check some of the stash teas and see what's available here. Citrus is in everything or so it seems.

And yes, I am full of info about allergies, am somewhat of an expert by necessity, rather than choice. Everyone in my family starts out with the "default set" of pollens and dust mites and then we develop and discover more as time goes on. One brother is not allergic to cats, the rest of us are to some degree, my sister is basically allergic to anything with fur or feathers, but is planning on maybe getting a dog after she retires and is actually home enough to take care of one! She got shots for nearly 15 years, and they got rid of almost all her tree and grass pollen allergies entirely, but didn't even make a dent in the dog and cat allergies, sadly.
Sounds like me and food ingredients, especially grains ad wheat gluten. Spunky has had problems with wheat and corn since a kitten. He gets the runs if he eats food with wheat gluten so he hasn't had gluten in a few years, longer than Ive known about Celiac disease.
