The story

Almond bakery notes, kettle required

Red rooibos from South Africa already brews mellow and naturally sweet. Add star anise, chamomile and calendula petals with a touch of natural flavouring and you get something that smells like a continental patisserie just opened its doors. The marzipan note is unmistakable: warm, nutty, gently sweet, without tipping into cloying.

The cup itself is a rich amber with a rounded body and no bitterness at all. You can drink it plain and enjoy the full almond-bakery effect, or add a splash of milk to soften it further. Either way it stays smooth from first sip to last dregs.

This is a brew for dark evenings, slow Sunday mornings, or that gap between dinner and bed when you fancy something comforting but caffeine is off the menu. Think of it as pudding without the washing up.

Rooibos gives a decent second brew, a bit lighter but still sweet.

Shop tip: If you are adding milk, let it steep an extra minute first so the almond flavour stays bold.

Good questions

Things people ask us in the shop

Does Marzipan Rooibos contain nuts?

The ingredients list rooibos, star anise, calendula and chamomile petals, and natural flavouring. It does not list almond pieces, but if you have a severe nut allergy please check the full details or contact us before ordering.

Is it actually caffeine-free?

Yes. Rooibos is naturally caffeine-free, so you can drink this any time of day or night.

How many cups will I get from a pouch?

Using roughly one teaspoon (2.5g) per cup: 50g makes about 20 cups, 100g around 40, and 250g roughly 100.

Can I add milk?

You can. A splash of milk gives it a creamier, almost latte-like texture. Works well without milk too, personal preference.

How should I store it?

Keep it sealed in a cool, dry place away from heat, sunlight and strong aromas. An airtight container or resealable pouch is ideal.
