Wellbeing in a Bottle

The secret is out! For generations, South African families have known red tea made from the rooibos bush to be high in antioxidants and naturally caffeine-free. They’ve also enjoyed the tea for its medicinal uses, including its calming and rejuvenating properties.  But more than being good for you, rooibos has an inherently sweet character and simply tastes great. And a secret like that is just too good to keep!

Rooibee Red Tea, made from the South African rooibos bush and USDA-certified organic, offers all the benefits of red tea in five delicious flavors that can be enjoyed by the entire family – at home or on the go.

Refresh, revitalize and rejuvenate with Rooibee Red Tea!

OUR THOUGHTS:
We eat paleo here; my tastes have changed considerably.  I had tried some rooibos tea in teabags years ago and didn't care for the taste - but now that my tastes have changed, I wanted to try it again.  And I'm glad I did - this stuff is really good!  But not just really good, I mean really  good . . .

I received all 5 flavors to try out, and I gotta say, this tea's fantastic!  The Vanilla Chai is hands down my favorite . . . it's like drinking a cream soda, but without the carbonation (which is fine by me!).  I'm savoring the Cranberry Pomegranate as I type!  The flavors are just right - not overly bold, just a very nice well-rounded flavor, with the taste of the rooibos in the background.  I'm not ashamed to say I took down two bottles upon opening the box, it's that good!  Really, really good!  I also like that it's in glass bottles rather than plastic. 

My mom loves peaches, so I gave her a bottle of the Peach flavor to try - she loved it!  Had the same thought I did - these are so freakin' tasty, they are hard to drink slowly - you just want to keep on drinking!  The only one I didn't really care for was the unsweetened one.  But, to be fair, I tried it *after* drinking the sweetened flavors, and I know from experience that if you've had a taste of something sweet, something not-so-sweet will taste even less sweet.  Now if I had tried that one first, I'd probably have liked it better.

Being paleo, we bring our meals with us as it can be hard to find paleo friendly food & drink when out and about.  It's nice to know that this is an option actually out there in stores!
