The leaves of Rooibos are harvested once a year and oxidised naturally under the sun which gives it a red colour and makes it the perfect herbal tea. The flavour of Rooibos is smooth, sweet and mild with hints of nut, vanilla, caramel and fruit. It is enjoyed as a hot or cold beverage. Many South Africans enjoy it as a hot beverage with milk, sweetened with sugar. Rooibos can be reheated without losing any flavour or becoming bitter.
