Yes Lisa,
That's what I drink. As long as it's decaffinated Dr. A says it's fine. I like it or Chamomile tea. Chamomile is a great tea because it's an anti fungul as well. It would help with candida.

Re: Green Tea
I'm guessing that you asked this on the candida forum because of the yeast-free diet. The answer is no to green tea. All coffee grounds and tea leaves have molds--same reason you can't have dried or powdered spices and herbs. Or nuts, for that matter.
I have never looked at the ingredients in Stevia, but if it has maltodextrin, you can't have it. What am I thinking! Stevia is crushed plant/herb leaves--so that's a no, too.
I didn't drink chamomile tea for the 14 days I was on the diet, but since it is a strong anti-fungal, you probably could. I drank it the whole time I was on antibiotics for this last surgery, and I don't have the yeast overgrowth back. I stuck with the coconut oil and took extra probiotics.
