Rooibos Rocks blog

June 10^th is International Iced Tea Day – a great opportunity to explain why iced Rooibos Rocks is the No1 healthiest way to keep your kids hydrated this summer.

Summer officially started on June 1 st and Rooibos Rocks like a good ‘un when the heat is on. Roll over regular iced tea and make way for this recipe from the Rainbow Nation of South Africa! Rooibos is sweet enough as it is, despite being sugar free, but if you want to kick it up a notch just add just a little peach juice and a drizzle of honey to get your taste buds rollin’ and tumblin’!

Ever wondered what genius invented the tea bag?  Credit goes to Thomas Sullivan, a New York tea merchant.  But he stumbled across the idea completely by accident and was only persuaded it was a good idea by his slightly confused customers. 

You need to keep the kids hydrated.  But you don’t want them glugging sodas and other drinks loaded with sugar, caffeine and other chemical nasties.  It’s a big dilemma for busy moms!

Does it drive you crazy that it’s so hard to find drinks for your kids that aren’t loaded with sugar and nasty stuff like caffeine and artificial sweeteners? … and that they will actually enjoy drinking?
