Why Rooibos?
Rooibos tea, native to South Africa, is a powerhouse of antioxidants and naturally free of caffeine, making it an excellent choice for all-day sipping. With its warm, earthy flavor and natural sweetness, rooibos is the perfect base for a latte, blending seamlessly with creamy oat milk and a touch of maple syrup for added depth.
