Overview
A cousin to rooibos, this tea has a wonderfully sweet, slightly astringent flavor with deep overtones of honey – its namesake! Steeps naturally sweeter as compared to the earthiness of rooibos. We recommend adding a spoonful of honey to help open the flavour, and brighten up the natural honey-like character of the leaves. Ingredient (organic): Honeybush Origin: Cederberg, South Africa Caffeine Content: None Water Temperature: Freshly boiled Steep Time: 5+ minutes One heaping tsp per 8 ozs water "Sweeter than its sister, rooibos, honeybush is another South African bush that loves to be converted into a delicious brew! Enjoy this drink hot or iced. I actually prefer honeybush to rooibos, and like to blend it with a sprinkle of peppermint and lemongrass!" - Patrice tea tender 2010-2019
