Description: A lush and indulgent blend of rooibos, Tahitian vanilla, cinnamon, apples and peaches.

The rooibos in TAZO® VANILLA ROOIBOS begins life as an unassuming bush on the South African plain. From there, things get considerably more exciting. United with the tartness of apples, the sweet notes of peach and Tahitian vanilla, the creamy rooibos becomes a cup of tea as indulgent and grand as its beginnings are humble. We should all be so lucky.
