Tea information
Product information
+
Rooibos, often called red tea, has a smooth, naturally mellow character with earthy, woody and lightly sweet notes. It is not made from the Camellia sinensis tea plant, so a pure rooibos infusion is naturally caffeine-free. Sweetea's 50 g pack is a handy way to explore this South African botanical.
How to prepare
Follow the pack's serving and steeping directions. Rooibos can often handle a longer infusion than delicate green teas; strain before serving.
