Organic African Nectar from Mighty Leaf Tea

From a Mighty Leaf Tea Assortment pack

I really enjoy the taste of “honeybush” or “red rooibos” or whatever it is called, but I am starting to notice that it gives me a weird itchy patch under my chin… Maybe it is psychosymatic? This one tastes delicious though and I will admit I am tempted to put it on my list of “must purchase” as a loose leaf, we will see how I react to the second bag in this pack – when I get to it.

Honeybush and red rooibos are two different things. Honeybush tends to be just a touch sweeter. Here’s a good explanation of them and their benefits: http://everythinghomewithcarol.blogspot.com/2011/05/rooibos-and-honeybush.html I love rooibos and honeybush, if only for their inability to oversteep!

I am not a big fan of honeybush. To me it tastes like I am drinking a fuzzy bee. But I do enjoy red rooibos.

LOL, a fuzzy bee, I like that imagery.

I love to read and what goes better with reading than a hot cup of tea on rainy winter nights and an ice-cold tea on a hot summers day?

I used to drink copious amounts of coffee but that was just a joke, because I never drank enough water to flush out that one cup of coffee (32oz of water to 8oz of coffee?!?) and the variety in tea gives me what I need – it is not often I will drink the same thing twice.

Tea is defiantly more gentle on the waistline… Espcially since when I crave apple pie I can reach for a cup of “Mom’s Apple pie” or if I want caramel corn for my movie night, I just have to brew a cup of “Movie Night”…

I definitely have a preference for Oolongs, flavoured Blacks and a select number of flavoured Rooibos.

I love you tea, this can only get better as the extra weight continues to tapper off!

Oh, did I mention I am a reader, a childcare worker, a teacher, a friend, a sister and so many other things in a day?
