    Starbucks teas

    I'm wondering what you guys think.

    I got some hibiscus tea from Starbucks, it's lovely. It arrived last night and I had 2 cups of it.
    I'm starting s&s today, and I know the leaflet says no flower or fruit teas. Well I didn't even realise that hibiscus was a flower, but the tin says its a herbal tea.
    I went onto slim&save webchat thing and asked the girl there. She spoke to the nutritionist who said it is totally fine to have it. Since then, I just looked at the back of the tin and the ingredients say...
    hibiscus flower 37%
    cinnamon natural flavour 11%
    papaya 11%
    apple lemongrass 6%
    rosehips and blackberry leaves 3%
    mango sugar and rose petals

    Do I risk having this or just take it as fine since the nutritionist said so?

    Did she specifically say that particular brand is ok?
    She could have been talking about something that is 100% hibiscus?

    I wouldn't have it if it contains flowers. Camomile tea knocks me out of ketosis.
    Reached goal of 130 lbs to lose.

    On maintenance I'm a little higher than I would like to be...
