Organic red tea with mango and orange flavor: a concentration of fruits and nature for a tasty infusion
Red tea, also called rooibos, originates from the heart of South Africa. It is a plant whose leaves are used to prepare infusions. Rooibos delivers a beautiful red color to the infusion as well as a sweet taste. Rich in antioxidants and free of theine, this beverage promotes the protection of cells against oxidative stress (sources: EFSA, Pimpinella anisum ID 1234).
Our organic red tea is enhanced with fruits (orange and mango flavor) and fragrant petaled flowers such as rose, cornflower and marigold. These ingredients add gourmet and subtle notes to your herbal tea.

Benefits and virtues of organic red tea
In South Africa, the infusion of rooibos leaves is traditionally used to promote good digestion (sources: EMA herbal monograph). Thanks to its antioxidants, this plant helps protect cells against oxidative stress (sources: EFSA).
Orange peels provide compounds rich in vitamin C and antioxidants that help protect cells against oxidative stress (sources: EFSA). Immunity can be supported by a balanced diet including fruits rich in vitamin C. As for the flower infusion present in this loose blend, it is traditionally recognized for promoting relaxation and well-being (sources: EMA herbal monograph). Indeed, these flowers have a soothing action and contribute to digestive comfort (sources: EMA, EFSA on hold list).
Without theine, rooibos does not have an exciting effect like coffee or teas. This organic herbal tea can therefore be enjoyed even by the youngest.
