Discover the Origins and Health Benefits of Rooibos Tea: The Herbal Infusion That's Taking the World by Storm

Rooibos Tea: A Nutritious Herbal Infusion

If you're a tea lover, you might be familiar with Rooibos tea, a herbal infusion made from the Aspalathus linearis shrub. Unlike traditional tea, which is derived from the Camellia sinensis plant, Rooibos tea is caffeine-free and contains many health benefits. This popular beverage is native to South Africa and is now enjoyed in over 60 countries around the world. 

History of Rooibos Tea

The history of Rooibos tea dates back to the early 1700s when Dutch settlers discovered this drink as a cheaper alternative to expensive black tea from Europe. In 1772, Carl Thunberg, a botanist, studied the Rooibos plant, and later, Benjamin Ginsberg, a Russian immigrant, marketed it as an export product. However, it wasn't until the 20th century that Rooibos tea's health benefits were recognized, and DR Le Fras Nortier started researching its medicinal and nutritional properties. The proper commercial production of Rooibos tea started in the 1930s. 

Health Benefits of Rooibos Tea

Rooibos tea is packed with antioxidants, such as aspalathin and quercetin, which have cancer-fighting benefits and promote heart and bone health. The tea is also rich in vitamins and minerals, such as calcium, manganese, magnesium, and iron, making it an excellent beverage for relaxation. Rooibos tea does not contain any caffeine, making it an ideal night-time tea alternative. 

Popularity of Rooibos Tea

Rooibos tea gained popularity in the late 1960s 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 in cafes and retail outlets worldwide. 

Varieties of Rooibos Tea

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 flavored Rooibos tea varieties. Some popular flavored 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).

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...

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, ...
