A Rich Red African Infusion with Hibiscus Flowers and Lemon. Tazo African Red Bush is a complex blend of the legendary red bush tea of South Africa, a bewitching hint of hibiscus flowers, lemon and sweet spices. We've added a pinch of rosemary, along with some unintelligible incantations, of which, only those who've lived several lifetimes can decipher. In the color of its amber liquor you can sometimes catch the blazing rays of an ancient, flaming sunset over the Great Rift Valley.Throughout history, Tazo has emerged among the more advanced cultures of the day as a refreshing break from routine. The discovery of red bush in Africa is thought to have been brought to mankind by the eternal tea shaman Zodnas, who is variously depicted in ancient carvings as a bird, a star, and a talking rock. His seal, the wheel of Tazo appears on top of this package as a sign of good luck.

"Rooibos is all earthy. Let's zazz it up with some citrus."
"Why?"
"Because we're evil."
"We are?"
"Apparently."

The idea of mixing citrus with rooibos is pretty out there so i had hope that it'd be good. It wasn't.

Citrus and rooibos do not go well together. Rooibos is already a little tart and the citrus overpowers it

Good rooibos tea but I am not a fan of the citrus flavor. It does not go so well with the tea

I don’t know if I didn’t let this steep long enough, or if it steeped too long... maybe it’s better as an iced tea? Just tasted a bit too much like tomato sauce for me. I may try it again sometime if I’m brave enough.
