When first picked, Rooibos is green and has a slightly earthy taste to it, but when crushed and fermented, it turns bright red and becomes sweeter. This tea has a myriad of health benefits associated with it such as anti-carcinogenic, anti-inflammatory, anti-viral. It contains calcium, manganese and fluoride which is good for your teeth and bones. Rooibos contains alpha-hydroxy acid and zinc which is good for acne, sun burn and eczema.
