minus-squaretaaz@biglemmowski.winlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up31·11 months agoRooibos - not a tea plant so it does not fuck with your sleeping schedule, great hot or cold and with any kind of (tea/coffee) condiment.
minus-squareThe Giant Korean@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·edit-211 months ago+1 on this. I have a big bag. I also have earl grey rooibos and chai rooibos which are both great. Just don’t drink tons of this stuff. A known side effect is that it can cause chest discomfort. Ask me how I know. Edit: Chest discomfort is only an issue if you drink a LOT of it. Normal human level consumption doesn’t cause problems.

minus-squareLando_@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·11 months agoDon’t get me wrong, I love honeybush but the honeybush that I’ve had has always been a very light flavour compared to rooibos. Like, with rooibos I feel like I’m having tea as opposed to honeybush essenced hot water
