A pouch of Seeking Representation! tea

The tea

A cup full of autumn, with no caffeine in it.

South African rooibos with cinnamon, orange peel and apple. Naturally sweet enough that most people skip the sugar, and caffeine-free, so it works at breakfast and equally well at ten at night.

Rooibos is forgiving in a way other teas are not. You cannot really over-steep it, so leave it in as long as you like.

You'll like it if
you want something warm and sweet-spiced that will not keep you awake
Maybe not if
you want caffeine or don't prefer cinnamon and fruit flavors in your tea

Getting it right

How we'd steep Seeking Representation!'s.

If it tastes good, it is good. These are guidelines, not gospel — start here and move whichever way your cup wants to go.

Water
212°F
Time
5–10 minutes
Leaf
2.5g per 12oz

One sachet per 12 oz mug. No measuring, same numbers otherwise.

  • We'd start here

    Hot, in a mug

    Full boil, and give it the full ten minutes if you have them. Roots and bark need longer than leaves do, and rooibos does not turn bitter when you leave it in longer.

  • Over ice

    Double the leaf, ten minutes, then over a full glass of ice. Tastes like cold cider and is a genuinely good option for anyone avoiding caffeine in the afternoon.

  • Cold brew overnight

    Two heaping teaspoons in a pint of cold water in the fridge overnight, then strain. Softer and rounder than the hot version.

If it's not right

Too weak
Add leaf before you add time. Past five minutes black tea gets bitter, not stronger.
Too bitter
Pull it a minute earlier, or use slightly less leaf. Water temperature isn't the culprit with black tea — it wants the full boil.
