Water: 16oz
Leaves: Small chopped leaves with bits of orange peel, safflowers & hibiscus
Steep:
Aroma: the usual rooibos
Color: Rich deep copper orange
Taste: Today I decided to test out my new Brita water pitcher for making this tea. I use 16 oz due to the amount of tea that comes in a sample packet. The aroma was that of the typical rooibos (dry leaf). Upon steeping the tea had released more of a citrus note (wet leaf). I noticed the color was much deeper and richer than the rooibos I had previously, this was probably due to the addition of the hibiscus. Overall I found this to be an okay lightly flavored tea.
