Our hand-harvested honeybush has a mild, sweet taste and aroma, somewhat like honey, and is infused with aromatic vanilla flavoring to create a unique infusion. This herbal infusion yields a vibrant reddish orange liquor not unlike the famous red glowing sunrise known throughout Africa.

Begin with fresh, bottled or filtered water. Bring the water just to a boil. Place one teaspoon of tea leaves per 8 oz cup of water into a teapot or infuser or place one tea bag directly into a 12 to 16oz cup. Pour water directly over the tea leaves or tea bag. Note that over-steeped tea will become bitter. For stronger tea add more leaves rather than infusing longer than recommended.
