In teas one may find an exotic infusion (6)

I believe the answer is:

tisane

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'an exotic infusion' is the definition.
'tisane' can be an answer for 'infusion' (I've seen this before). I am not certain of the 'an exotic' bit.

'in teas one' is the wordplay.
'in teas' becomes 'tis' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'one' becomes 'ane' (synonyms).
'tis'+'ane'='TISANE'

'may find' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for tisane that I've seen before include "Herb-tea" , "Infusion (eg of herbs or flowers)" , "Herbal infusion" , "Herb tea" , "relaxing drink" .)
