Roobios Tisanes

Rooibos tea, which is also known as "red bush," is not technically tea, but an herbal brew made from fermented leaves of a native South African plant. Rooibos and its cousin Honeybush are gaining popularity in the United States and Canada because of their plentiful health benefits, high levels of antioxidants, low tannin content, and no caffeine--not to mention its slight natural sweetness and refreshing flavor (adding honey enhances this characteristic). The healing properties of rooibos include using it as a treatment for skin ailments, as an immune system booster, a way to slow the aging process, and a remedy for conditions from insomnia to headaches to anxiety. Also, rooibos does not contain oxalic acid, the compound found in some other types of tea that can cause kidney stones.

Brewing: Use 1 to 2 heaping teaspoons per cup of boiling water and steep up to 5 minutes. I have left these in all day and they do not become bitter.
