Of you use 'expired' tea bags, nothing should happen food safety-wise. Any expiration date would be related to best flavor, not foodborne illness issues.

Tea loses flavor as it ages. If you use old tea, the flavor might not be what you were expecting.

If you're talking about loose-leaf tea that has been properly stored (in a dry area), then no. Tea starts to break down and lose flavor, but it generally does not spoil. If you have tea that has been stored for a very long time, it will often taste very bland, and it may develop "off" aromas. But it is generally not harmful, unless it has been stored improperly (such as in too damp an area) and has grown mold.

A taste test is usually all you need...if it smells and tastes fine, it is probably safe.

Brewed tea is another issue, however...once tea has been brewed it can grow mold or bacteria or other microorganisms, so it is best to drink it up relatively quickly.

People do not get sick if they drink expired tea, but they lose the main elements in the tea such as taste, aroma and color
