Review:
I love this tea! This is the tea that got me addicted the instant it hit my taste buds.
This is a tea that everyone and their brother would like.
I sampled this as a cold tea in the store. I've not had it hot before and I have no intention of trying that way.
The recommended process is 3 tsp with 32 ounces of water steeping at 208ยบ F for 5-6 minutes.
This is my recommended process: 3-4 tsp with 32 ounces of water. Place into refrigerator overnight and enjoy the delicious tea on the commute to work the next day.

This is mother nature's version of red cool-aid. It is sweet and refreshing.
There must be some non-listed magical element in this tea. It contains zero caffeine and somehow gets me going like it's loaded with it.
It is light to the pallet at introduction with traces of peach and kiwi. It then ramps up to a nice strawberry with a hint of apple after taste. It is the kind of flavor that on reflex you immediately lift you cup for another taste. This is the kind of tea that leaves you making multiple attempts to have more after you've finished it. Many times I can be caught with my head tipped all the way back, my cup completely vertical, and I'll be tapping on the bottom of the cup to have every last molecule.
When this tea is ready it will be a rich red color with the fruit pieces and rooibos on the bottom and the safflowers open and floating at the top.
