Certified Organic by: Quality Assurance International (QAI) Rooibos is exceptionally easy to brew. We recommend one teaspoon of leaf per 8 oz cup of near or just at boiling water. Because of its smoothness, steeping time can very broadly without acquiring any bitterness. In general, higher temperature and longer infusions extract more of the beneficial health properties of the beverage (boiling water, 10 minute infusion). However, if lower temperature or shorter steepings are desired, re-infusions will extract all the antioxidants and other nutritional qualities). Rooibos can be brewed in porcelain, ceramic, glass, or stainless steel but never in aluminum or other harmful materials.
