Dakota Kid:
Chicory root makes an excellent coffee substitute, as they taste very similar. The dried root is ground and brewed the same way you'd make a cup of joe. It can also be steeped like tea for a stronger taste. It can also be mixed with coffee to make a less caffeinated version or to simply stretch your coffee supply a little.
H Rhodes:
Sassafrass root is a favorite. Staghorn sumac too - boil the bright red seed heads - citrus-like almost lemony flavored tea, supposed to be a source of zinc and vitamin C, which are both used to head off a cold.

My wife used to lament not being able to find lemon verbena tea locally. I planted some. It's great, and we have WAY more than we need. I prefer mint, but it gives me pretty crazy dreams. ;)
