Notes:

True tea is made from the leaves of Camellia sinensis. Black, green, white, oolong, yellow and dark teas are the main processing categories.
Herbal infusions such as chamomile, rooibos, peppermint and hibiscus are commonly called teas, but they are not true tea unless blended with Camellia sinensis.
Tea flavour, colour, caffeine content and aroma depend on the plant variety, growing region, processing method, brewing temperature and steeping time.
Milk tea, bubble tea, masala chai and Moroccan mint tea are preparations or styles rather than separate botanical tea species.
Caffeine-free herbal infusions are not necessarily suitable for everyone; ingredients can interact with medicines or cause allergies.
This list contains 50 tea types, regional varieties, blends, herbal infusions and prepared tea beverages. They are not all separate botanical categories.
