Red Bush Tea from South Africa. December 8, 2004
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Rooibos is Afrikaans for "red bush." Grown in South Africa's Cederburg Mountains and harvested during the summer, this tea acquires its unique red color as a result of fermentation (in mounds) and oxidization, when it is spread out to dry in the sunlight; naturally it is green.
Rooibos is known for its health benefits stemming from its rich content in vitamins, antioxidants, flavanoids and minerals (inter alia, magnesium, calcium, iron, copper, zinc, potassium, fluoride, manganese and alpha-hydroxy) and has a long tradition of medicinal use among the local Native population; among other things, it is known to help cure asthma, hay fever and other allergies, acne, eczema, colics, indigestion, insomnia, and nervous tension. Containing very few tannins and no caffeine, rooibos has a distinctive aroma and amber color.
You can either have this tea pure, or blend it with spices: my favorite creation is a delicious blend sold by my local tea store, which features orange peel, cinnamon, grated coconut, finely minced chili and red pepper; but any blend containing these ingredients and/or honey, cardamom, nutmeg, ginger, cloves, star anise, hibiscus, rosemary, lemon myrtle, lemon verbena or lemon balm will work extremely well. Enjoy!
