Well, there is in China, all kinds of flowers like magnolia, honeysuckle, chrysanthemum, lavender, jasmine, rose buds, etc. There are dried leaves of bamboo, licorice root, wolfberries, etc. Stuff like that is brewed as an herbal tea - and drunk during the summer to cool the body. Tea leaves usually aren't mixed in - though they could be mixed in. But few people here would want to waste good tea and do that anyway.
