SOUTH AFRICAN ROOIBOS (REDBUSH) ICED TEA



South African Rooibos (Redbush) Iced Tea image

Rooibos tea (known in Britain as Redbush), grown in South Africa is naturally caffiene free and low in tannins so it's healthier and doesn't have the heavy tannin taste that puts me off most regular teas. You can also buy Organic Rooibos which is even better. This iced tea lasts for ages in the fridge and it's really light and refreshing!

ROOIBOS (SOUTH AFRICAN RED BUSH) AND LAVENDER TEA



Rooibos (South African Red Bush) and Lavender Tea image

Yesterday I was going through the drive-through coffee hut and saw a brand of tea of which I was not familiar. The brand is Zhena's Gypsy Tea and one of her "specialteas" is one marketed as Red Bush Lavender Tea. Here is my copycat version of this mild-tasting herbal tea. Red Bush (in Afrikaans: Rooibos) is available online and in some natural food stores and gourmet shops. Www.gypsytea.com describes red bush tea as: : "Rooibos (pronounced roy-boss) has been used for its medicinal properties in South Africa since the early 1900's. South Africans attribute the plant with several positive benefits including headache relief, reduced allergic reactions, and even colic relief in babies. Scientists have found Rooibos to be beneficial in the treatment of liver diseases, diabetes mellitus, certain skin disorders, and cataracts". Caffeine-free and low in tannins.

HOW TO MAKE ROOIBOS TEA: 6 WAYS TO ICE AND BREW

From simplelooseleaf.com
Estimated Reading Time 5 mins
  • Regular steeping. The best thing about rooibos, after the sweet earthly flavor is the ease of steeping. Most real loose leaf tea will require patience and learning if you want to avoid bitterness, especially green tea.
  • Rooibos latte. Enjoying rooibos latte in the evening is one of the best ways to end a day. Rooibos may reduce the levels of cortisol, a stress hormone.
  • Sun-brewed rooibos. Sun-brewing is a fun way to effortlessly brew and enjoy tea in summer. All you need is a jar, tea leaves and sun. Just like black tea, rooibos is suitable for sun brewing.
  • Iced rooibos. You can make rooibos iced tea in two ways—by cold-brewing or using hot-brewed infusion with a lot of ice. It contains no caffeine, so it’s a perfect summer drink for children, pregnant and breastfeeding women and anyone over-sensitive to caffeine.
  • Rooibos syrup. Rooibos syrup can be used for making cocktails, desserts, shaved ice or mixed with water and ice, as a refreshing summer drink. Use about 10 grams of pure of flavored rooibos loose leaf tea, ½ liter of water, 30 grams of honey and 300 grams of sugar.
  • Rooibos detox tea. Every tea drinker occasionally tries a detox tea. Detox tea is usually best avoided—especially if you don’t know the ingredients and want to avoid laxative and diuretic effect that won’t help you lose weight, but lose fluids instead.
