Since drinking Rooibos there’s no going back! I’m completely converted. I find it far more refreshing and drink gallons of the stuff!I’m particularly addicted to vanilla and love the fact it’s packed with loads of vitamins and minerals! I think I’m gonna make a brew…

A very dear friend of mine introduced me to a Vanilla Rooibos Latte tea last week. I loved it instantly. And have had several since. I suffer from a gastric condition that I was trying to get under control but the medications were not working as they should. I don’t know if it had anything to do with the Rooibos tea, but since the first cupful, my condition has improved greatly. It certainly isn’t medical science, or hasn’t been medically proven, but I’m going to continue drinking it and see where this goes.

After staying in Namibia and Botswana, by far the best is lemon rooibos. African Dawn Estate Rooibos is fantastic. Glad I brought some back with me.

I started drinking a cranberry blend rooibos tea, I suufer from recuring kidney stones, which leaves alot of food and beverages out of my reach, I started because it has no caffeine, I was suprised to realize I was rarely experiencing the infections that caome with the stones and was sleeping better, I have nothing but great things to say about the tea

I live in England and drink many different herbal teas, black tea, green tea and redbush. I drink redbush in preference to black or green tea as I get past the afternoon, to avoid the over stimulation from caffeine. I find I don’t like the taste of all brands of redbush. I tried many different brands available here in England. My favorite is Kromland. Kromland is hard to find in England and I have to buy it on the internet and pay heavy post and packaging costs. Suprisingly (because it is such a cheap brand) I would strongly recommend Tetleys Redbush (also available with vanilla for those that like this mix). This is very mild but very pleasant, needing a good long steeping time before adding a little milk. Heating the cup first (like heating the pot in traditional tea making) and saucer on the top all improve the strength but are not essential when in a hurry. Also I believe that Tetleys Peppermint tea is the best peppermint tea by far and as I drink more peppermint tea than any other, I will drink no other brand. Beats the major competetor, Twinnings, hands down for both redbush and peppermint. All my family also agree and complain if I switch. Many of the big supermarkets stock both Tetleys redbush and peppermint tea bags at very low cost (often on offer). Hope this is useful for readers in the UK.

I’ve just started drinking Tick Tock Rooibos tea with a slice of lemon and love it – the health benefits are an added bonus.

I like drinking Rooibus tick tock teas in tea bag form , I normally add 7 tea bags to a very large mug and 2 fairly sized spoons of Honey and then leave it to brew for around 10-12 minutes. its a great start to the day. you don,t have too follow me and use so many tea bags , I always like to taste the full strength of the Tea and therefore get the full Benefits from the Tea. I prefer to use Honey as I don,t use sugar plus its a great vehicle for the Rooibus tea. hope you enjoy I,m sure you will

I have been drinking green tea for a long time as with black coffee.My dentist noticed I had alot of staining on my teeth,I am a non smoker.The only thing I could attribute this to was my choice of beverage.I decided to branch out and try to find a tea thatwas not as dark as the geen tea and that would not stain my teeth.It was only by accident that I decided to try the rooibos with vanilla.I read that it has so many health benefits one being that it does not stain teeth,also great that it is caffeine free.I am a poor sleeper.I just started drinking this tea 3 days ago and I love it.With all of its health benefits I can have my cake and eat it too as the saying goes.I would recommend this tea to anybody.I love ,love ,love it!!!
