LCurator note · Teapigs
The caffeine-free way to have a caramel dessert tea, which is its real selling point. Where the Dilmah and Lipton caramel blends are black tea and will keep you awake, this is ninety-five percent South African rooibos, so it is the one you can drink last thing without a second thought. The caramel is rich and toffee-sweet with a warm vanilla-sugar aroma, and the rooibos underneath does the job a black base would: its naturally earthy, faintly woody character anchors the sweetness so it does not float off into sickliness. Rooibos has its own honeyed-woody signature that not everyone takes to, so if you have disliked redbush before this will not convert you. But if you want a sweet, dessert style evening cup with no caffeine, this one is better judged than most. A splash of milk turns it into a proper liquid-dessert latte. Think of it as pudding in a mug, only one you can have at bedtime.

Curator’s notes

Read the full write-up
Teapigs Rooibos Creme Caramel is a dessert style tea you can have instead of a high calorie pudding. Plain herbal blends can taste thin or grassy, but this cup gets its fullness from ninety five percent pure South African rooibos and four percent real caramel pieces. Teapigs tea temples bring the easy, approachable feel of top shelf teas and turn it into a bold, whole leaf format for a satisfying evening cup. Comforting in the British manner, this rooibos dessert tea takes well to a splash of milk, or turns up as a smooth, refreshing cold brew latte. This Creme Caramel blend suits a quiet night in or a hectic day, and Teapigs quality carries on into 2026.

Side by side

How does it compare

vs Twinings Caramel RooibosTeapigs uses a heftier whole leaf and real caramel chunks, whereas Twinings uses a finer dust.
vs Clipper RooibosClipper sticks to pure rooibos, while teapigs goes further into dessert territory with its caramel infusion.
vs Tetley Digestive Biscuit TeaWhile Tetley captures the malty biscuit note, teapigs offers a richer, dessert heavy profile with clear toffee undertones.
Brewing

Brewing the perfect cup

Water temperature100°C is fine here: unlike true tea, rooibos stands a rolling boil and stays free of bitterness.
MeasureUse one bag for 250ml of freshly boiled water, which is a little more than true tea gets because rooibos leaves are less concentrated.
Steep5 to 7 minutes; rooibos will not over brew, so longer simply means stronger.
ServiceBlack gives the cleanest flavour; for a South African farmhouse cup in the traditional style, add half a teaspoon of brown sugar plus a small splash of milk.
Iced versionMake it strong with 3 bags, let it cool, add cold water to dilute, and finish with a slice of orange.
Caffeine noteRooibos Creme Caramel is naturally caffeine free, so any time of day suits it, and so does any age.
Best withRusks (the South African dunking biscuit), milk tart, dark chocolate digestives, or after dinner as a cosy end to the day.
