At a glance: Rooibos Lagoon Beach, a fruity blend of strawberry, grape and flowers, naturally caffeine-free. Brew at 100°C (212°F), 7 to 10 min, 15 to 20 g/L.
Picture a quiet beach beside a shimmering lagoon, still water catching the light, a sweet scent drifting through the air. That is the little escape this fruity blend offers: a gentle, joyful pause in the middle of your day.
Our tea buyer Julien Huot built this blend around a red herbal infusion from southern Africa, layered with fruit pieces and flowers for a round, indulgent cup that delights both seasoned tea lovers and the most curious of palates.
At the top, strawberry opens with a bright, sweet note, quickly joined by grape, which brings a soft, velvety richness. It is a pleasant fruity duo, never artificial, evoking summer desserts and bowls of fresh fruit.
At the heart, blackberry leaves and orange peel add a subtle, almost zesty freshness. Green rooibos appears with its delicate vegetal edge, a light counterpoint to the rounder, woodsier character of the red rooibos.
At the base, cornflower and marigold petals scatter flashes of blue and orange through the infusion, leaving a tender floral finish. The cup is amber, luminous and beautifully inviting, a wonderful starting point for those exploring everything there is to know about Rooibos.
Use 15 to 20 g of leaves per litre of water at a full 100°C (212°F). Steep for 7 to 10 minutes depending on how strong you like it. Rooibos never turns bitter, so you can let it infuse a little longer without any worry of astringency.
For an iced version, double the amount of leaves and cold-brew in the fridge for 4 to 6 hours. Add a handful of ice, a slice of orange and a couple of mint leaves: it becomes the perfect drink for a quiet afternoon by the water or out on a sunny terrace.
This infusion is best enjoyed as it is, without sugar or milk, to fully appreciate its fruity balance. A glass teapot will show off the copper-coloured brew beautifully, with the colourful petals dancing in the cup.
For a more playful serve, turn it into a non-alcoholic cocktail: a splash of strawberry syrup, ice cubes, a slice of orange and a dash of sparkling water. A fun, crowd-pleasing treat to share with family at any hour of the day.
Keep this blend in its airtight tin, away from light, moisture and strong odours. Packed in our workshop, it retains its full aroma for 18 to 24 months after opening.
Rooibos is traditionally valued for its richness in polyphenols, including aspalathin, a compound studied for its antioxidant potential in research referenced by PubMed.
Naturally free from caffeine and theine, it makes for a calming evening drink. The ANSES guidelines highlight the importance of regular hydration, and an infusion like this fits into that habit with great pleasure.
Does Rooibos Lagoon Beach contain caffeine?
Not at all. Rooibos is naturally free from both theine and caffeine. You can enjoy it in the evening, late in the day, or serve it to children without any concern. A truly any-time infusion.
What are the main flavours?
Strawberry and grape take centre stage, supported by floral notes of cornflower and marigold, with a hint of orange freshness. It is a smooth, fruity and indulgent blend that wins over even those new to rooibos.
Can it be made as an iced drink?
Absolutely. This blend lends itself beautifully to cold brewing: leave it in the fridge for 4 to 6 hours and you have a perfectly refreshing summer drink, best served with fresh fruit or a sprig of mint.
