Description

Dutch settlers to the Western Cape area (probably beginning sometime in the 1700s) used the leaves as an alternative to expensive black tea that had to come by sea from Europe. (no ZipEx back then)

The Rooibos plant is harvested in summer, fermented, and then dried in the sun until it reaches a deep mahogany red colour. Rich in antioxidants, and caffeine-free, Twinings African Rooibos Herbal Red Tea is great to drink with lunch or in the afternoon. Serve it as you would black tea.
