Organic Rooibos Herbal Tea
Organic Rooibos Herbal Tea
This organic herbal tea is a traditional South African drink, also known as "red bush." It has a mild, aromatic, slightly citrus sweetness. Many people compare rooibos to a fine Ceylon tea. Unlike most herbal drinks, rooibos has lots of body, but is still smooth and caffeine free.
Rooibos is 100% caffeine-free. All rooibos comes from the Republic of South Africa, typically from the western mountainous region around Cedarburg. It has been drunk for centuries in this area, and it is produced and served in a manner similar to traditional English-style black tea, up to and including the adding of milk and sugar.

Herbal Tea
Herbal Teas (also called tisanes) are actually not tea at all because they do not contain the leaves of the tea plant (like a black tea, etc.). Herbal teas are made from herbs and spices and are steeped with hot water to offer a delicious and healthy "tea".
Caffeine: Usually caffeine free
Steeping: Herbal teas require hot water and longer steep times to release the oils and bring out the flavors of the dried herbs and spices. Bring water just to a boil and pour over tea. Remove tea bag or ball after 3-5 minutes. Bitter tea is tea that has burned in too hot of water.
