By Vail Mountain Coffee & Tea
South African Rooibos tea is combined with ginger, cinnamon, vanilla and cardamom to produce a caffeine-free alternative to traditional Indian Chai.

Rooibos is a full-bodied herbal tea produced from the leaf of the Aspalathus Linoaris plant, not the tea plant Camellia Sinensis. Grown only in South Africa this tea is naturally caffeine free with black tea qualities and high in both antioxidants and vitamin C.

Rooibos means "red bush" because of the color of its leaves and was first discovered in 1772 by the Swedish botanist Carl Thunberg.
