Caffeine free rooibos herb tea blend. A natural source of antioxidants. Individually wrapped for freshness. Red Tea: Rooibos herb from S. Africa. Red Tea or Rooibos (pronounced roy-boss) is the common name for a natural herb unique to South Africa's Cedarberg Mountains. The name rooibos is derived from an African slang word of Dutch origin meaning red bush. The rooibos leaves, harvested during the summer, turn red during processing. Red tea is naturally caffeine free and is delicious hot or iced. Rooibos is the main ingredient in our Red Tea Sweet & Spicy. Studies show that rooibos contains natural powerful antioxidants, some stronger antioxidants than found in black tea, along with trace elements. Red Tea also contains flavonoids and Super Oxide Dismutase (SOD), antioxidants that help protect the body against free radicals, molecules which weaken the body's natural defense system against aging. Drinking Red Tea regularly can enhance a long life of well-being. Contains no sugar, caffeine, artificial colors or preservatives. Tea bags are microwave safe.
