I was never a tea drinker, either... when I had to give up my coffee and soda, I found it almost an insult to my taste buds to have to get used to drinking herbal teas.
But I did get used to it. That's kind of the best advice I have... keep drinking the stuff, you'll get used to it eventually. For me, it was realizing that my only other alternative was water - blech - I learned to like tea quick enough then!
My favorite so far - and what actually got me started *enjoying* tea - is redbush, or rooibus, tea. I brew it up moderately strong, with a teaspoon of sugar and a generous splash of vanilla rice milk. It isn't bad at all. Even better yet, if you can find it, is Yogi Tea brand Redbush Chai. Drink that with more sugar and more rice milk, and it's really good.
I still can't drink peppermint, ginger, fennel, or chamomile teas. I force down peppermint with lots of sugar when I'm having an attack, but the others I just can't do. Sometimes you just have to find teas you like, and leave the others for when you *really* need them.
Good luck!
