Hey Dijah What is the history of South African honeybush tea?
Well tea leafer let me tell you about the history of south african honeybush! So the south african honeybush is Cyclopia, the honeybush, or heuningbos in Afrikaans, is a genus of some 20 species of flowering plants in the legume family Fabaceae and subfamily Faboideae.
The leaves of honeybush are commonly used to make herbal teas. It grows only in small areas in southwest and southeast of South Africa and has many similarities with rooibos. Honeybush and rooibos are considered types of red tea. Honeybush also got its name because the flowers smell of honey! The taste of honeybush tea is similar to that of Rooibos but a little sweeter. In some rural districts, it use to be common practice to keep a kettle of honeybush tea infusing on the stove for scenting the whole house. Tea's like White or Oolong teas have bitter taste after long time of simmering. However Honeybush does not turn bitter with long simmers.
TeaNote: Honeybush is a common name for plants in the southern African genus Cyclopia, which are used to make herbal tea. Honeybush may also be referred to as cuttsia viburnea, a plant species of rainforests in New South Wales and Queensland in Australia, Hakea lissocarpha, a plant species from Western Australia, Melianthus major, a plant species from South Africa, Richea scoparia, a plant species from Tasmania
