Have you heard of Rooibos or maybe red tea? Let's assume that you have. But! Have you tried it? That's another question. Here are some reasons why you should give this tea a chance and add it to your tea selection.

Rooibos has somehow made it up here in Canada, although it is originally from South Africa. It is a bush plant also known as red bush that makes the most popular tea in this African nation. People there brew Rooibos tea the same way as black tea and add milk and sugar to taste. They probably are aware of the benefits of Rooibos but this is why Canadians should drink it too.

1.) Rooibos is considered an herbal "tea" and is caffeine free.

If you're looking for a tea without the caffeine buzz or just for a tisane to have right before bed, you may have found your tea jewel. This rooibos tea has a naturally light body with medium dark liquor that looks like black tea and is often drank plain on its own or mixed with a variety of flavours for a delicious infusion.

2.) Rooibos relieves stress.

Rooibos tea is known to relieve stress and nervous tension. Having it after a hard day at work this warm drink soothes and calms us for a good night sleep.

3.) Rooibos has great nutritional benefits.

Rooibos tea is rich in many mineral contents such as iron, calcium, potassium, copper, manganese, zinc, magnesium and alpha hydroxy acid. It also contains antioxidants that we all know how much our bodies need to manage the damaging free radicals. 

4.) Rooibos for beautiful, glowing skin. 

Rooibos naturally contains zinc and alpha hydroxy acids which are known to help clarify the skin and who doesn't want clear skin at the end of the day.
