Green Rooibos Mexican Spice
About Rooibos Tea Leaves: Rooibos loose leaf tea leaves come from the Aspalathus Linearis (red bush) plant grown in South Africa. Rooibos is rich in antioxidants and has anti-inflammatory properties. Rooibos contains minerals including calcium, iron, magnesium, zinc and trace minerals, polyphenols and is high in Vitamin C. It is naturally caffeine-free and low in tannins (so they it has no bitterness). Green Rooibos loose leaf tea leaves are steamed and dried to prevent oxidation/fermentation. Green Rooibos has a higher concentration of many of the nutrients found in red Rooibos tea. It has a mild smooth and grassy flavor similar to traditional green tea. Our Green Rooibos loose leaf tea leaves are Organic, Halal and Kosher.
