For non caffeine, I have enjoyed Tulsi, Rooibos, and herbal based teas as many of the other respondants have noted.

I also however drink small amounts of green "real" tea and am IBS-D and have seen no problems. I also have had different types of black teas (have more caffeine than green but still much less than coffee) and it's a dice roll. Sometimes I feel fine, sometimes I don't. The ones with spices (chai, for example) tend to do better as the spices calm the stomach and work against the caffeine.

Regardless, getting into a tea-type beveredge is a great way to add a ton of antioxidants and nutrients into your diet. I find for myself personally that all the many health benefits of green tea outweight it's potential (but not observed by my anyway) negative effect on IBS.
