Rooibos Rêve Canadien is an indulgent blend that brings together the rounded warmth of rooibos, the woody sweetness of maple syrup, and the depth of crushed cacao nibs. A comforting cup, naturally caffeine-free, crafted for lovers of sweet, chocolatey notes.

Picture a sugar shack, a stack of maple-drenched pancakes, and a square of dark chocolate: that is the world this infusion quietly conjures. Browse our red tea collection to explore more of these amber-hued herbal infusions.

The Aromatic Profile of Rêve Canadien

This blend is built on four carefully assembled ingredients: rooibos, honeybush, crushed cacao nibs, and natural flavouring. Each one plays a distinct role in the cup.

On the opening, the nose is greeted by a bold, almost pastry-like chocolate note, carried by the toasted cacao pieces. That first impression recalls a rich dessert served at the close of a meal.

In the heart, the amber sweetness of maple syrup settles in, blending naturally with the honeyed roundness of honeybush, rooibos's botanical cousin, which lends a silky, sweet texture with no added sugar.

On the finish, the rooibos unfolds its woody, lightly nutty notes, with that characteristic red-orange signature. The cup closes on a lingering warmth, with no astringency. To learn more about this remarkable plant, visit what is rooibos.

How to Brew Rooibos Rêve Canadien

Rooibos needs fully boiling water to release its aromas completely, unlike more delicate green teas. Here are our recommended brewing parameters:

Temperature: 100°C (boiling water)
Steeping time: 7 to 10 minutes, depending on desired strength
Quantity: 15 to 20 g per litre, roughly one heaped tablespoon per 250 ml
Accessories: a teapot with a wide filter or a generous tea infuser, to give the leaves and cacao pieces room to open

Rooibos never turns bitter, even with a long steep. You can leave it without any risk of astringency, unlike black or green tea. On warm days, try it iced: double the quantity, steep for 12 minutes in hot water, then pour over ice.

This herbal infusion is wonderful on its own, letting its chocolatey notes shine through, or with a splash of plant-based milk (oat, almond) to bring out its indulgent side. A drizzle of extra maple syrup will delight those with a sweet tooth.

Storage

Blended in our workshop, this mix keeps best in an airtight container, away from light, heat, and humidity. As the cacao pieces are sensitive to temperature changes, avoid storing near heat sources. Enjoyed within 12 to 18 months, the rooibos retains its full aromatic intensity.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you brew rooibos?
Bring water to a full boil at 100°C, use 15 to 20 g of rooibos per litre, and steep for 7 to 10 minutes. Unlike tea, rooibos never turns bitter, so feel free to steep a little longer if you prefer a stronger cup.

What are the benefits of rooibos?
Rooibos is traditionally valued for its richness in antioxidants (aspalathine, nothofagin) and its complete absence of caffeine. According to the ANSES, herbal infusions contribute to daily hydration without stimulants. Studies referenced on PubMed document the nutritional interest of its polyphenols.

Where can I buy maple rooibos?
Our Rooibos Rêve Canadien is available in our online shop, selected and blended by Julien Huot, owner of Thés & Traditions. Also explore our Organic Honeybush for another caffeine-free option to enjoy.

What flavours pair well with rooibos?
Rooibos pairs beautifully with cacao, vanilla, caramel, red berries, citrus, and warming spices (cinnamon, cardamom). Its natural roundness welcomes both sweet and fruity notes, as in our Rooibos Lagoon Beach.
