Chai rooibos is a rich, aromatic infusion that blends the naturally sweet, earthy character of rooibos tea with the bold, warming spices of traditional chai. The rooibos base, a deep red herbal tea from South Africa, offers a smooth, slightly nutty flavor with hints of honey and vanilla. It’s naturally caffeine-free, making it a soothing choice for any time of day.
Layered into this mellow foundation are classic chai spices—cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, cloves, and black pepper—which bring a vibrant, spiced complexity. The result is a comforting, full-bodied brew with a gentle heat and a lingering sweetness. Unlike black tea-based chai, chai rooibos has no bitterness, allowing the spices to shine without being overpowering.
It’s a tea that feels grounding and indulgent, perfect for cozy moments, especially when steeped strong and finished with a splash of milk or a touch of honey. Whether enjoyed hot or iced, chai rooibos offers a flavorful escape that’s both invigorating and calming.
