Cut! Your life is way too action-packed right now. Why don’t you take five? It’s important to chill out for a few minutes each and every day. Besides, that’s all you’ll need to enjoy the tasty benefits of Vitacost® Caribbean Breeze Organic Rooibos Tea.
Loaded with tropical coconut and citrus flavor, this red tea has a way of transporting your mind to a calmer, slower-paced place. It’s probably the flakes of real coconut that remind you of sweet libations on a summer vacation. Don’t let that feeling slip away. Sipping on Vitacost® Caribbean Breeze Organic Rooibos Tea can bring you to balmy breezes and picturesque palms.
What is rooibos?
Though oxidized, or fermented, like other tea types, which come from the Camellia sinensis leaf, rooibos is different. It’s the oxidation that helps create the distinct color and flavor in Vitacost® Caribbean Breeze Organic Rooibos Tea. Another reason rooibos stands apart is because it actually isn’t a tea. The word means red bush because that’s where rooibos comes from the needle-like leaves of a red bush botanically known as Aspalathus linearis. That explains why rooibos is often called red tea or, in the U.K., red bush tea. And if you were wondering, it’s pronounced roy-boss. Now you know.
We dot our i’s and cross our teas
High-quality tea doesn’t come from a machine. Vitacost® Caribbean Breeze Organic Rooibos Tea is handled in small-batch blending to maintain the integrity of its delicate leaves and coconut flakes. With a human touch at every stage of the process, there’s a tasteful difference that will sweep you away. And because the best can always be better, all of our Vitacost® teas are USDA Certified Organic.
Brewed to a tea
Ever wrapped a tea bag string around your spoon to squeeze out every last drop? Never again. Vitacost’s pyramid-shaped sachets are at the tip of tea technology. This structure allows the tea’s leaves to float freely, so they can infuse their full flavor potential when immersed in hot water. There’s also less breakage, which means you don’t have to drink dust at the bottom of your cup.
Big deal, right? Well, they kind of are. These pyramid sachets are made from Soilon, a fine mesh that’s biodegradable and fully compostable. They’ve been heat-sealed instead of stapled or chemically sealed like traditional tea bags. That’s how you know Vitacost® tea’s pyramid sachets aren’t just for good looks they’re for the greater good!
