Hello there,You should not drink herbal teas while wearing your Invisalign trays. Regular tea, soda, coffee and herbal tea will stain your trays. I would recommend that you always remove them when you eat and when you drink anything other than water. It's important to remove your trays before each meal, brush and floss diligently and keep your aligners clean. Good luck and I hope this helps. Follow me if you have more questions.Sarah Thompson, DMDSt. Louis, MO area (O'Fallon, IL)Real Self 100
