Caramel Cream Rooibos
$20.00 – $39.00
Rooibos tea is also known as red tea or red bush tea. It is made using leaves from a shrub called Aspalathus linearis, usually grown on the western coast of South Africa. Rooibos is a herbal tea and is not related to green or black tea. Traditional rooibos is created by fermenting the leaves, which turns them a red-brown color. Caramel Cream Rooibos is a throwback to some very memorable desserts and reminiscent of flan and delicious pastry custards. You can add sugar and milk, if desired, as they are a nice accompaniment. Rooibos iced tea, espressos, lattes and cappuccinos have also taken off recently. It is caffeine-free, low in tannins and rich in antioxidants — which may offer a variety of health benefits.
Flavor Profile
The opening bars are sweet toffee notes building to a full symphonic caramel. An I want more finish!

ICED TEA BREWING METHOD (Pitcher): (To Make 1 Liter/Quart):
Place 6 slightly heaping teaspoons of loose rooibos or 6 tea bags into a teapot or heat resistant pitcher. Using filtered or freshly drawn cold water, boil and pour 1¼ cups/315ml over the rooibos. Steep for 5 minutes. Quarter fill a serving pitcher with cold water. Pour the brewed rooibos into your serving pitcher straining the rooibos or removing the bags. Add ice and top-up the pitcher with cold water. Garnish and sweeten to taste. A rule of thumb when preparing fresh brewed iced rooibos is to increase the strength of the hot rooibos brew since it will be poured over ice and diluted with cold water.
