## Summary

How to brew Loyd Pure Rooibos: a full rolling boil for a deep, naturally sweet caffeine-free cup.

## Description

Pure rooibos is the easy everyday caffeine-free cup, and the one thing worth knowing is that it likes a full rolling boil. Most leaf teas you would take off the boil, but rooibos is the opposite: it only gives up its deep red colour and natural sweetness at a proper 100C.

It is sweet enough to drink as it is, but a slice of lemon sharpens it, or a dash of cold milk rounds it out the way it is often taken in South Africa.
