It's a South African herbal tea that's getting pretty readily available. http://www.uptontea.com has good stuff. Sometimes called red bush. It's great iced or hot.
From wikipedia.org: "It is free of caffeine, and contains Aspalathin, a flavonoid present in medicinal herbs used to treat skin and circulatory disorders. It is low in tannin, which inhibits absorption of minerals, at 4.4 percent. It contains traces of fluoride, calcium and manganese.
Japanese research into the effects of oligosaccharides, also found in Rooibos, indicates that these compounds may aid the immune system in fighting viral infections.
Rooibos extracts may have also been shown to have anticarcinogenic and antimutagenic effects.
Rooibos is rich in flavonoid antioxidants which mimics the activity of Super Oxide Dismutase (S.O.D.), by scavenging free radicals .
Other purported benefits include:
* Anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic properties
* relief of hay fever, asthma and allergies
* relief of insomnia and nervous tension
* relief of constipation, stomach cramps and colic in infants
* easing skin conditions including acne, eczema and nappy/diaper rash"
