Rooibos is a shrub grown in South Africa, unrelated to tea, which is only associated with the method of infusion. However, it has become common to define rooibos infusion as "tea". Rooibos tea is made from the leaves of the shrub, which are cut into small pieces when dried. The infusion is straw-colored and its taste is distinguished by a hint of honey. The infusion is mild and lacks the bitter aftertaste typical of green or black teas, as it does not contain the tannins involved. It also does not contain caffeine, so it can be drunk without restrictions by children and at bedtime. It is also recommended for pregnant women because it is rich in iron and prevents nausea.
