“ This Rooibos Vanilla Chai tea garners appreciation for its warm, spicy aroma and blend of ginger, cloves, cardamom, and cinnamon, offering a flavorful experience that warms both heart and soul. While the vanilla notes are sometimes described as mild, they can be enhanced by sweeteners and dairy additions, turning the tea into a delightful chai latte. Most reviewers enjoy the decaffeinated base of rooibos, despite some finding its medicinal taste being masked effectively by the chai spices. The blend's adaptability to personal taste preferences, like steeping time and additions, make it a versatile choice for an enjoyable, caffeine-free tea experience. ”
“ Holiday spices united once again to make this delicious Rooibos chai tea. The star players ginger, cinnamon, cloves, and cardamom made a strong fragrant presence upon opening my CommuniTEA packet today. A generous portion of golden spiced nuggets tumbled out which I steeped at 200F for 7 minutes. A beautiful tawny-colored tea resulted, nose fragrant with a full-on spicy taste to follow. When hot this was a zippy sip and as it cooled the orange and vanilla flavors come out of hiding a bit. I added honey but didn't add milk which is always a great option for chai. I chose instead for a no-frills slightly sweetened sipping experience.
For chai lovers, this Rooibos tea base provides mellow bedding for all the spices to blend and shine without any background astringency. This chai flavor is a favorite alongside Golden Turmeric Chai. Both are decaf and full of flavor. ”
“ Update: This a nice spiced blend. I brewed this for 15 minutes and that seemed to help along with the spices, to cover up the normal medicinal taste of the red rooibos. Today's communiTEA sample was heavy on the cloves. I added sweetener and cream to tone it down. I'm still not a fan of rooibos. ”
“ The rooibos adds a rich sweetness to this fragrant chai and since it's caffeine free I can enjoy this anytime. I definitely recommend this as a n Autumn and Winter go-to staple. ”
“ It's a nice vanilla chia without the caffeine for when I want to have a late night tea that isn't herbal. Sweet, smooth, with notable vanilla flavor. ”

You've probably heard of vanilla beans, but did you know they're actually a fruit? The vanilla orchid grows as a vine on support trees, with vines growing, at least in the wild, as high as they can reach. In industrial settings, new growth is manually turned down to stay at human height. Flowers are then pollinated via pollinators like bees or hummingbirds or by hand-pollination, with one pod resulting from each flower. Rooibos, a bush-like plant from South Africa, isn't quite as hard to produce, with the leaves themselves being used to make tea after oxidization.

I've noticed the majority of bags state to use less per cup than what the webpage will say. The rooibos vanilla chai bag says 1 tsp/cup while the tea timer says 2 heaping tsp/cup. Which is it?
