Description
Rooibos tea, also known as red tea or bush tea, is a popular herbal tea made from the leaves of the rooibos plant, which is native to South Africa. The tea is naturally caffeine-free and has a distinctive reddish-brown color and a sweet, nutty flavor.
Rooibos tea is rich in antioxidants, including aspalathin and quercetin, which help to protect the body against free radical damage and reduce inflammation. It is also a good source of minerals such as calcium, manganese, and fluoride, which are important for maintaining strong bones and teeth.
In addition to its health benefits, rooibos tea is also a great alternative to traditional tea or coffee, as it has a lower tannin content and is gentler on the stomach. It can be enjoyed both hot or cold, and is often mixed with other flavors such as vanilla, honey, or fruit to create a refreshing and flavorful beverage.
