Rooibos is well known for its amazing medicinal properties such as relieving stress, soothing upset stomachs, aiding with digestion, calming nervous tension, and providing relief from allergies. Rooibos is almost unmatched in its levels of antioxidants which are known to reduce the risk of many chronic diseases including cancer. Rooibos has proven in studies to promote healthy skin, teeth, and bones as well as lower blood pressure and protect against heart disease. Since Rooibos is caffeine-free, it is completely safe for pregnant and breastfeeding women and is loaded with vitamins and minerals.--californiateahouse.comWho knew rooibos had all those benefits?! Rooibos is one of my favorite teas, especially since it is so easy to pair with some of my favorite dessert flavors. This tiramisu rooibos knocked my socks off! I've never had a tea taste so close to the real thing. I could almost taste the cake in each sip!
The tea is infused with white cocoa butter splits, toffee, cocoa, and sugared hazelnuts. Yum!! I steeped this tea for about 5 minutes in boiling water and added some raw sugar, it was fantastic. I thought I'd try it without sweetener first, but the added sugar really livened up the flavors for me.
I caution those who don't really have a sweet tooth with this tea. It's very decadent and dessert like.

Rooibos is by far my favorite tea. I try and have every available flavor out there. I have had a lot, but there are so many types. This Tiramisu is breath taking; by far my favorite! I add a little bit of sugar and I get all the health reasons for having a cup of rooibos in a cup of true to the name Tiramisu. That’s hard to beat! I’m a fan for sure.
