Rooibos

Rooibos Origin and History Rooibos tea, also known as red bush tea, originates from South Africa and is renowned for its deep red color and sweet, nutty flavor. This herbal tea is made from the leaves of the Aspalathus linearis shrub, unique to the Cederberg region. Ingredients and Flavor Unlike traditional teas from the Camellia sinensis plant, pure Rooibos tea is naturally caffeine-free and low in tannins. It offers a rich, slightly sweet, and earthy taste, often with hints of vanilla and honey. Appearance and Brewing Rooibos leaves are needle-like, fine, and have a deep maroon hue. When brewed, they yield a vibrant red infusion, known for its soothing properties and warm, comforting aroma. Serving and Pairing Rooibos tea is versatile; it can be enjoyed hot or cold, with or without milk, sweeteners, or lemon. It pairs well with a variety of foods and is a popular choice for evening relaxation due to its caffeine-free nature. Health Benefits of Rooibos Pure Rooibos tea is appreciated
