Rooibos blend with vanilla and orange

Vitalplant’s organic night tea is the sweetest blend in our tea range. Fourteen ingredients, from rooibos to lavender to Bourbon vanilla, naturally caffeine-free.

The blend

Lemon balm leaves come first. Melissa officinalis is a member of the mint family with a distinct lemony note, and has been common in Central Europe as a garden plant since the Middle Ages.

Fenugreek seeds, fennel, and apple pieces follow, along with passionflower herb and lemongrass.

Red and green rooibos from South Africa. Both come from the same plant, Aspalathus linearis. Red rooibos is fermented after harvest, while green is not. That makes the difference in color and taste: red is sweet and rounded, green fresher and more grassy.

Bourbon vanilla flavor, orange oil, orange peel, lavender blossoms, tonka bean, and marigold blossoms complete the blend and give it its dessert-like character.

Preparation and flavor

Pour 3 g of tea over 200 ml of boiling water and let steep for 5 to 8 minutes. Rooibos does not turn bitter even with a long steeping time, unlike black or green tea. So you can safely leave it to steep.

The blend is ideal for the evening and tastes noticeably sweet even without sugar, thanks to the rooibos, vanilla, and tonka bean.

Organic night tea: origin and quality

100 g of loose tea yields around 30 servings. The ingredients come from certified organic cultivation, certified according to the EU Organic Regulation, inspection body number DE-ÖKO-039, origin EU and non-EU agriculture. No added sugar. Packed in a resealable stand-up pouch.

Behind Vitalplant is Christian Lazar, licensed pharmacist with over 35 years of professional experience at the Stern Pharmacy.

Rooibos grows in only one place

Aspalathus linearis occurs exclusively in the Cederberg mountains of South Africa's Western Cape province, on acidic, nutrient-poor sandy soils in the shrubland of the Fynbos. Attempts to cultivate the plant elsewhere have failed to this day.

Botanically, rooibos is a legume and therefore related to peas and clover. Like them, it lives in symbiosis with nodule bacteria on its roots, which bind nitrogen from the air. Only in this way can the shrub cope with soils that otherwise produce almost nothing. It is harvested by cutting the branches, which are then chopped up and crushed.

Fermented here does not mean brewed

With red rooibos, fermentation is mentioned, but no microorganisms are involved. What happens instead is enzymatic oxidation: the crushed material is moistened, piled up, and left in the sun, while the plant's own enzymes convert the colorless tannins into reddish-brown compounds.

The exact same process also distinguishes black tea from green tea. Green rooibos, on the other hand, is steamed and dried immediately after cutting, which switches off the enzymes. That is why it remains greenish, tastes more grassy, and contains different proportions of the same groups of substances.

The tonka bean and its coumarin

Tonka beans are the seeds of Dipteryx odorata, a mighty tree of the Amazon region that grows over forty meters tall. Their scent of vanilla, hay, almond, and caramel is overwhelmingly due to a single compound: coumarin.

It is the same coumarin that makes the difference between Ceylon cinnamon and cassia cinnamon and that is regularly reported on during the cinnamon star season. In the EU, it is considered a flavoring with set maximum levels in food. In the USA, the tonka bean has not been approved as a food ingredient since the 1950s.

Not every lavender belongs in the cup

The purple fields of Provence are mostly not made up of true lavender, but of lavandin, a hybrid with spike lavender. Lavandin yields far more oil per hectare and is therefore the plant of the fragrance industry.

It is of little use for food and tea because its oil contains significantly more camphor and therefore tastes soapy and pungent. Instead, Lavandula angustifolia, true lavender, is used, which grows higher in the mountains, blooms later, and has a much milder fragrance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Pour 200 ml of boiling water over 3 g of tea and let steep for 5 to 8 minutes, about a heaped teaspoon per cup. Here you can be generous: unlike black or green tea, rooibos does not become bitter even with a long steeping time.

Both come from the same plant, Aspalathus linearis from South Africa. The difference comes after harvest: red rooibos is fermented, green rooibos is not. That creates the difference in colour and flavour: red is sweet and rounded, green is fresher and more grassy. In this blend, both are side by side.

Fourteen: lemon balm leaves, fenugreek seeds, fennel, apple pieces, passionflower herb, lemongrass, natural bourbon vanilla flavoring, red and green rooibos, orange oil, lavender blossoms, orange peel, tonka bean, and calendula blossoms. Lemon balm comes first.

Noticeably sweet and dessert-like, even without any added sweetener. This is due to rooibos, Bourbon vanilla, and tonka bean, all three of which bring a natural sweetness. Lemon balm adds a lemony note, while orange oil and orange peel add a fruity one. It is the sweetest blend in our tea range.

Nein, von Natur aus nicht. Auch Rooibos ist koffeinfrei, obwohl er im Aufguss ähnlich dunkel wirkt wie Schwarztee; er stammt von einer ganz anderen Pflanze. Der Tee eignet sich damit auch für die späten Stunden.

No. The sweet note comes exclusively from the ingredients themselves. An infusion of 3 g of tea provides practically no calories; the nutrition table shows 9 kJ per 100 ml, which is 2 kcal.

100 g of loose tea makes about 30 servings at 3 g per cup, so enough for a month if you drink one cup a day. The tea is packed loose, so you need a strainer or tea filter. Certified organic according to the EU Organic Regulation, certification body number DE-ÖKO-039.

Store in a dry, dark place in an airtight container; the resealable stand-up pouch already takes care of that. With such an aromatic blend, this matters especially: vanilla, orange oil, and tonka bean quickly lose their aroma when exposed to air. Also keep it away from strongly scented foods.
