Rooibos Tea: The Herbal Infusion That's Taking Over the World. Rooibos tea is a popular beverage originating from South Africa and is made from the Aspalathus linearis shrub. Unlike traditional tea, which comes from the camellia sinensis plant, rooibos tea is a herbal infusion that is dried and fermented to create a nutritious and flavourful drink. Rooibos tea, which is known for its distinctive red-brown colour, is now enjoyed in over 60 countries worldwide.

The origins of rooibos tea can be traced back to the early 1700s when Dutch settlers in Cape Town discovered the drink as an alternative to the expensive black tea from Europe. A botanist named Carl Thuinberg studied the rooibos plant in 1772 and after this, a Russian immigrant named Benjamin Ginsberg started marketing the tea as an export product. It wasn't until the 20th century that the health benefits of rooibos tea were recognized, with DR Le Fras Nortier starting to research its unique nutritional and medicinal qualities. The proper commercial production of rooibos tea only started in the 1930s.

Rooibos tea rose to popularity in 1968 when a South African mother claimed that it was effective in soothing her baby's colic. In the 1980s, rooibos tea gained popularity in Japan due to claims of its anti-aging properties. Recently, a 'rooibos tea espresso' has gained popularity within cafes and retail outlets around the world.

Rooibos tea is packed full of antioxidants such as aspalathin and quercetin, giving it cancer-fighting benefits as well as promoting heart and bone health. The tea is also high in vitamins and minerals such as calcium, manganese, magnesium, and iron, making it a great drink for relaxation. Rooibos tea contains no caffeine, making it an ideal night-time tea alternative.

Tea Lovers Australia offers a wide range of natural rooibos and honeybush loose-leaf teas, including high-grade organic rooibos tea, as well as many delicious flavoured rooibos tea varieties. Some of the popular flavoured rooibos tea options include Rooibos Blueberry Cheesecake, Rooibos Strawberries & Cream, Rooibos Chocolate & Truffle, Rooibos Orange Spiced Chai, Rooibos Dragonfruit & Ginger, and Rooibos Cream (caramel & vanilla).

In conclusion, rooibos tea is a delicious and nutritious alternative to traditional tea and is gaining popularity around the world. Its health benefits and flavour options make it an excellent choice for tea lovers everywhere.

Rooibos tea is a herbal infusion made from the Aspalathus linearis bush shrub that is native to South Africa. Rooibos isn’t actually a tea in the sense that it doesn’t come from the camellia sinensis plant – It is a herb that infuses in water to make a nutritious herbal beverage. Similarly to the production of tea, rooibos tea leaves (leaves form the Aspalathus linearis shrub) are cut, dried and fermented to produce a reddish-brown coloured leaf. Indigenous to South Africa, rooibos tea is the popular drink found in most South African households and is now currently sold in over 60 countries worldwide. It is interesting to know about how rooibos tea was first discovered. In the 1700’s early Dutch settlers in Cape Town discovered rooibos tea as an alternative to drinking expensive black tea from Europe at the time.  A European botanist Carl Thuinberg who visited Cape Town in 1772, studied the rooibos plant and the tea that could be brewed from it. Following this, ...

You would be forgiven for thinking herbal infusions are some kind of supplement or medical practice. A herbal infusion, in the sense of talking about ‘tea’, is simply what we call a herbal tea. A herbal infusion is the process of steeping herbs in hot water until the water absorbs the essential oils, nutrients and flavours from the herb. Herbal infusions may consist of roots, leaves, shoots or flower petals and are primarily drunk for health and medicinal reasons, as well as for taste and pleasure. A herbal infusion tea can consist of a single herb (such as chamomile or peppermint), or can be a blend of herbs that have been carefully selected for medicinal purpose or simply great taste. Examples of herbal infusion blends include Peppermint & Liquorice herbal tea or Lemongrass & Ginger herbal tea. Herbal Infusions can also be blended with dried fruits and spices to make them taste great, as well as adding further health value to the tea. Herbal teas have been cons...

Exploring the Smoky Flavours of Russian Caravan Black Tea

    Russian Caravan tea is a highly sought-after black tea, renowned for its unique smoky flavour. This popular tea has a rich history that dates back to the 1600s, when it was first discovered along the Sino-Russian trade route. Russian Caravan tea is a blend of black tea leaves that have been infused with smoke, resulting in a dark and malty tea with notes of tobacco, chocolate, firewood, charcoal, and smoke. The story of Russian Caravan tea began when goods were carted from China to Russia via the Sino-Russian trade route. The tea was transported on mile-long camel caravans, and due to the long, cold, and snow-covered roads, the camels would often stop and rest near campfires. During these rests, the tea leaves absorbed the smoky flavour, and when the tea arrived in Russia, tea drinkers took notice of its new smoky character and really enjoyed it. This resulted in the official creation and demand for Russian Caravan tea. Interestingly, around the same time Russian Caravan t...
