Rooibos Herb, Cut

Botanical Name: Aspalathus linearis Rooibos (Aspalathus linearis), meaning "red bush" in Afrikaans, is a broom-like plant native to the Cederberg Mountains of South Africa. The leaves and stems are harvested, cut, and then typically fermented (which gives it its characteristic reddish-brown color and sweet, earthy flavor) or sometimes sold unfermented as "green rooibos." Both forms are caffeine-free and popular worldwide. Rooibos is celebrated for its rich antioxidant content, lack of caffeine, and mild, sweet flavor, making it a popular healthy beverage choice. To prepare as a tea: 1-2 teaspoons of dried, cut peppermint leaves (adjust to your preferred strength) 8 ounces (1 cup) hot water Optional: Milk/creamer, honey, sugar, lemon slice, cinnamon stick.
