Re: orangless teas?
I can get it in bulk at my HFS, and Celestial Seasonings has a few different flavored varieties. I like the Madagascar Vanilla (it has a lion on it)...it's one of the few Celestial Seasonings teas w/o soy lecithin.

Re: orangless teas?
*cough cough* Just popping in to market the fact that rooibos is indigenous to South Africa (and the name literally means "red bush" in Afrikaans).

Re: orangless teas?
And from what I have read it was traditionally used to support health in South Africa. It was considered the herb of pregnant and nursing women. (It may still be as far as I know.)

Re: orangless teas?
It is generally considered to be healthy and it is available EVERYWHERE. Seriously - if you're a guest in someone's home and they offer coffee or tea, a response of "tea please" is met with "rooibos or English?"
You should all just come visit! |

Re: orangless teas?
That is so great! My husband would especially love that. He's always grumbling because restaurants don't serve rooibos.

Re: orangless teas?
So, am I correct in assuming that rooibos is what they are drinking in The No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency books every time they sit down to a cup of bush tea? (The books are set in Botswana.)

Something must be wrong with my taste buds. Every rooibos I've had tastes like mold to me. I want to like it. |
