Organic Red Rooibos is one of the world's most beloved caffeine-free teas — a naturally sweet, earthy, and smooth South African herbal that's been cherished for generations. Rich i n antioxidants, gentle on the stomach, and delicious morning to night, red rooibos is the perfect tea for anyone seeking big flavor without caffeine. Why Red Rooibos Is So Special Rooibos (pronounced ROY-boss) comes exclusively from the Cederberg mountains of South Africa. The needle-like leaves of the Aspalathus linearis shrub are harvested, bruised, and left to ferment in the sun — a process that creates the characteristic reddish-brown color, earthy sweetness, and smooth body that rooibos is famous for. Unlike many herbal teas, rooibos never turns bitter no matter how long it steeps. Origin: Cederberg Region, Western Cape, South Africa Flavor notes: Sweet, earthy, woody, slight vanilla undertone Caffeine: None — naturally caffeine-free Antioxidants: Rich in aspalathin and nothofagin (unique to rooibos) Brew temp: 208–212°F Steep time: 5–7 minutes (or longer — won't turn bitter) Great with: Milk and honey, as a latte, hot or iced Brewing Organic Red Rooibos Use 1–1.5 tsp per 8 oz of boiling water. Steep 5–7 minutes or longer. Enjoy black with honey, or add warmed milk/oat milk for a naturally caffeine-free "latte" that's warming and nourishing. Outstanding iced as well — cold-brew for 8+ hours in the refrigerator for an incredibly smooth glass. Try our Citrus Setter Rooibos blend that features rooibos with citrus and hibiscus.
