Original Rooibos

£2.29 Net weight: 90g

Tick Tock's deep colour and full taste make a delicious cup of tea, and it’s well known for its health properties too. Gentle, soothing, naturally caffeine free and low in tannin, Tick Tock Rooibos Tea can be enjoyed at any time, even at bedtime.

 

Our rooibos (sometimes known as Redbush) is still harvested by hand and cured in the traditional way, as it was when Grandfather Benjamin Ginsberg founded Rooibos over 100 years ago. The process takes place in the crisp air of the Cedarberg Mountains of South Africa's Cape. It requires great skill to know when the cure is at its peak; one sign is that it begins to give off a delicious sweet aroma that attracts wild bees.

 

Available in 40 or 80 teabags and loose leaf.

EVERYBODY’S CUP OF TEA

Lightly malted and nutty with a honeyed sweetness, you can count on Tick Tock for a smooth and gentle cup of rooibos – just as it should be. Your ruby-red brew is full-bodied after 2-3 minutes’ steeping, but leave the teabag in longer for even more depth and richness. Don’t worry – it will never turn bitter. With a splash of milk, rooibos works a treat as a naturally caffeine free alternative to a standard brew. Or make it your own with a drop of honey or a twist of lemon.

RICH IN ANTIOXIDANTS

Rooibos is packed with powerful antioxidants, believed to protect body cells against oxidative damage and the destructive effects of free radicals. Initial studies have shown that 4-6 cups of rooibos a day can help reduce ‘bad’ LDL cholesterol, boost ‘good’ HDL cholesterol, balance blood sugar levels, and even support a healthy immune system.

A GOOD NIGHT’S SLEEP

Many of us struggle with sleep. Thankfully, a few simple changes can make a big difference. For example, a regular bedtime schedule and relaxing wind-down routine can help programme your mind and body for a good night’s kip. Experts also recommend skipping caffeine for at least six hours before your bedtime, making naturally caffeine free Tick Tock the perfect choice for rounding out your day.
