One thing that really bugs me is when manufacturers call any sort of herbal infusion "tea". "Tea" is something that grows on a tea plant; if it's camomile or some sort of other herb, I'm sure it's very nice to drink, but it's not tea!
There's a perfectly good word for a herbal infusion: "tisane" (as any Agatha Christie fan will know - Hercule Poirot is very fond of his tisane
).
