Only available seasonally, so get it while we have some in stock! It's NEW and it's fabulous. | Something you might be needing on January 1st, 2017?Try our rooibos blend with nettles, fennel, ginger and dandelion. High in minerals, alkaline, liver support, nourishing and delicious. A great coffee replacement in the morning. This tea was originally called Multivitamin Tea but over time, friends nicknamed this delicious blend for obvious reasons.... "Hangover Cure". |
