Rooibos Tea - It Could Should Be Your Next Cup of Tea

The Story
You might think that coffee was the leading hot drink around the world. Actually, next to water, tea is the most widely-consumed beverage in the world. In 1994, Americans alone drank about 2.25 billion gallons of it - hot, iced, spiced, flavored, with sugar and without sugar, with honey and without honey, tea with this and without that. While it is better for you than coffee, but there are still some negative side effects of tea... that is, SOME tea. There is a tea called Rooibos Tea (aka Red Bush Tea), which not only is void of any negative side effects, it has healing medical properties that can take care of insomnia, colic, stress, and more!
