🩷 Roobios Tea
I love this rooibos herbal tea. It is a popular antioxidant-rich tea that may protect liver health. In addition, it is a herbal infusion that tastes like black tea, but is slightly sweeter. The brand I like to use is by Pique, and their quality is superb.

Unlike green or black, rooibos does not contain any caffeine, so it’s safe to drink well into the evening. It contains zero calories, and due to this, it’s a fine choice just before bed, because it won’t spike your blood sugar levels.
In terms of nutrition, it contains considerable amounts of flavan-3-ols, phenolic compounds, and the antioxidants aspalathin and nothofagin.
I love to prepare an iced rooibos tea blend. Here I share a quick recipe below that you can also freeze into delicious ice pops. Try this healthy drink on a warm summer day, or turn it into a healthy ice pop treat.

📖 Recipe
Iced Raspberry Rooibos Healthy Tea Recipe
Equipment
Ingredients
- 4 Rooibos Vitality Elixir tea
- 4 cups water (One cup boiled, 3 cold)
- 1 ½ cup raspberries
- 5 tablespoon lemon, juice
- 4 tablespoon sugar, coconut
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 handful mint leaves, fresh
- handful Ice
Instructions
- Boil one cup of water and pour over the tea bags. Allow to steep for 4-5 minutes. Set aside and allow to cool.
- In the meantime, combine the raspberries, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and sugar in a medium-sized saucepan. Stirring constantly, mix for 3 minutes.
- Over a large mixing bowl, strain the mixture through a fine meshed sieve to remove the tiny seeds. Smash the mixture to help separate the seeds from the pulp.
- In a pitcher, add a handful or two of ice. Pour in the tea mixture, which was set aside earlier. Add in the remaining 3 cups of cold water, raspberry mixture, and fresh mint. Stir to combine.
- Serve immediately or keep refrigerated. Garnish with extra fresh mint, raspberries, and lemon slices.
- I love to use the brand Pique for their Rooibos Vitality Elixir. If you use this Rooibos elixir, there is no need to boil the water. Simply add 4 Rooibos Vitality Elixirs into 4 cups of cold water. Then combine the raspberry mixture into the cold water. It can't get any easier than that. I love Pique because the taste is superior to any other brands I have tried out there.
- You can also make ice pops. Simply freeze the mixture into ice pop molds, and you have a delicious treat. You can also try replacing half the water with milk of choice, and you freeze those as pops too.
