ROOIBOS CAROB TEA



Rooibos Carob Tea image

This is one of the many recipes I came up with on my own while experimenting with my various tea herbs. This particular blend, Rooibos Carob Tea, involves roasted carob nut (tastes similar to chocolate) and the wonderful rich flavor of rooibos. It's a great combination for those who like rooibos but want to add a twist to plain rooibos tea. It is best hot but decent chilled. Oh, and make sure the carob you buy is the roasted kind or it won't taste right! Note: I've listed things in teaspoons because this website won't let me list it in parts, but it's technically in a ratio, so you can make whatever quantity you want.

  • Cut the vanilla bean into little pieces.
  • Assemble all the ingredients and place in a tea ball. Note: If you don't own a tea ball, then you can put the ingredients directly in the water and then strain out later. Note that food.com forced me to list the rooibos as "rooibos tea bags" but I used loose leaf tea.

CINNAMON VANILLA CAROB TEA

This is one of the many recipes I came up with on my own while experimenting with my various tea herbs. This particular blend involves roasted carob nut (tastes similar to chocolate) and makes a very nice healthier alternative to hot chocolate. In fact, I like the flavor better than actual hot chocolate! This one is inspired by the many cinnamon vanilla hot chocolate blends that I've seen before. It's best hot but also decent as an iced tea. Note: I've listed things in teaspoons because this website won't let me list it in parts, but it's technically in a ratio, so you can make whatever quantity you want.
