Ways to enjoy Rooibos Tea

1- Try a Rooibos Latte: Froth milk and combine with brewed Rooibos tea for a creamy treat

2- Rooibos Iced Tea: Brew a strong batch of Rooibos, let it cool, and add ice and a splash of lemon or sweetener.

3- Rooibos Fruit Tea: Although I sell several with fruit, floral, spices in the tea blend.  You can combine Rooibos with dried fruits like apple, mango or berries for a fruity twist.

4- Flavorings:  Rooibos pairs well with various flavors like vanilla, cinnamon and citrus

TIPS for PERFECT Rooibos Tea

1-       Water Temperature:  While boiling water is generally used, some people prefer slightly cooler water for a milder flavor, warm your water to your desired temperature.

2-       Steeping Time: Experiment with different steep times to find your preferred strength, generally 5 minutes.  However, 3-5 or 5-7 minutes works well.

3-       Milk and Sugar:  Many people enjoy Rooibos with milk and/or sugar.  Rooibos is a naturally sweeter tea, if you do add milk, a lactose free milk is best (including almond milk, etc.), and raw pure unprocessed sugar or local honey. 

TASTE:

Rooibos tea has a milk aromatic taste.  It is more on the sweet side and not astringent like green tea.  Most of the time, people enjoy this tea without any extra flavor, but it can also be found with various aromas.

TIPS:

·        If you want, you can add milk and honey to Rooibos tea

·        It can be reheated without affecting the properties or the taste of the tea.

INGREDIENTS:
