Rooibos tea is a caffeine-free herbal tea from South Africa. It brews like black tea, with a similar color, and has a mellow, smooth taste. Rooibos has reputed health benefits as an anti-oxidant rich tea, much like green tea, and contains valuable vitamins and minerals.
Brewing Instructions:
Use 1 tea bag per 8 oz of water. Steep in just boiled water that is around 200°F-212°F, for 3-5 minutes or longer, depending on taste.
Note:
The natural cellulose fibers are compostable/biodegradable, however, upon completion of composting, a residue of synthetic fibers (Polyefin) will remain. This prevents this paper from meeting the EN13432 requirements for composability. So most of it will break down easily, but the fibers will not entirely.
