The tropical taste of Alter Eco's Red tea with Rooibos is naturally sweetened by the addition of fresh rooibos. Pop in a couple of bags for a healthy breakfast or pick-me-up any time during the day. Alter Eco's Red Tea with Rooibos (Red Bush) is a rich voice that emerges after the fruity flavors of citrus and berries fall silent. It is the result of a rare collaboration between the producers, who belong to an ancient group of small farmers in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa and Alter Eco, which has been creating sustainable environmental projects to benefit the poverty stricken communities in the same province for over ten years. This harmony of points of view gives Alter Eco Red Tea with Rooibos its own personality and energy. Gently fermented after harvest, then dried naturally in the sun to preserve valuable nutrients and retain freshness, this exceptional tea is a fine source of antioxidants. Organic and Fair Trade, our Red tea with Rooibos has a natural and refreshing taste. This is our finest quality teas and the best taste in town. Let it steep at 175° F for 3 to 5 minutes.
