Bonus points if it doesn't have artificial sweeteners!

Peppermint tea is my favourite. If you like flavoured water, but want to stay away from sweeteners, I recommend infusing your own water. I use lemon, lime, and mint. Lots of different combos on Pinterest.

Yep, peppermint tea! It's yummy, soothing and feels great in my stomach. I wasn't even a tea drinker a year ago.

Herbal iced tea is pretty good. Like lemon zinger.

Rooibos Tea (naturally decaf, technically it's not a tea but it's a tea basically) Teavana sells my favorite http://amzn.to/2xHOnCQ a Blueberry one that is and great iced or hot... sometimes I add milk and make a tea latte. The berries make it sweet enough for me. I heard that the storefront shops are going to be closing in the next few years (owned by Starbucks) but most tea shops have some version of it.

Fresh ginger root tea is my favourite. I use a bit of vanilla or caramel premier protein as whitener, and it is so good!

I'm like you, I like to keep it natural. I purchased a drink called "Bai" for my pre-op liquid diet. It's made with stevia, and has 5 calorie. You can get them at Costco. Quite pricey but they are delicious.

So funny how different our tastes can be. I bought a case of the Bai ones at Costco, drank part of one and poured the rest out. I thought it was vile. So I have a case minus one sitting around...
