Been drinking rooibos a lot of afternoons and evenings when I work. But this is the first green rooibos I’ve tried. Green tea in particular was what got me into the tea world. And unlike green tea, this recommends using boiling water. I let it steep for about 5 minutes and was pleasantly surprised. It was very reminiscent of green tea, but more hay notes than grassy. And not quite as deep. While I would both choose green tea and red rooibos over this, I’ll enjoy having this on occasion, especially when I don’t want any more caffeine for the day.
I love green rooibos as an ingredient, but I don’t recall ever trying it on its own. Something needs to be done about that.
