Rooibos Strawberry Cream

Rooibos Tea by Wegmans

An Exotic Adventure

Rooibos is an herb native to South Africa. Its needle-like leaves are harvested, naturally processed and dried to form “tea” leaves. With the added sweet aromas of strawberries and cream, we think you’ll find this red creation an exotic adventure.

These were tea bags, so the dried unsteeped leaves do not really have an aroma. Once steeped, the tea did not have very much aroma either.

The first time I had the tea, I brewed three minutes, hot with no sugar. It was a sweeter tea, being rooibos and strawberries, but with a slight creamy after taste, it was a pleasant surprise. There was not a lot of strawberry flavor, but I think it did add to the overall sweetness of the tea.

I tried it again, I steeped it for five minutes, hot with no sugar. This was sweeter than the shorter infusion, but still very little strawberry flavor. However, the longer brew time increased the creaminess of the tea.

It was a decent tea.

Major headache, trying this to ease the pain, not really cutting it right now. Not that I thought this would make the headache go away, I didn’t, I just thought it would help to relax me, instead, I think I just need to go to sleep early…Sorry for the complaining.

Tea: Very dark today, perhaps oversteeped, definitely taste rooibos and strawberries, the cream is mostly lost, but it just adds a different flavor to the strawberries, not creamy per se, but varied.

Smells a bit creamy prior to steeping. Not much scent after steeping. Nice darker Rooibos Color. You can certainly taste the sweetness of the Rooibos with a slight hint of cream and barely-there strawberry. All-in-all – a nice, sweet cuppa.

I had some of this last night and it tasted like Rooibos but NOT the Strawberry and Cream I remember…I wonder if the shelf life is getting weak…or maybe I just need to steep longer??? Sigh….

Had this last night…wasn’t as creamy this time tho…still ok

Backlogging…nice wind down cuppa.
