Peach Rooibos Fizz

Master tea blender and founder of Tay Tea, Nini Ordoubadi, makes this thirst quenching “mocktail” with one of my favorite of her many exquisite blended teas, Kaapstad. Named after the Africaans name for Capetown, it is made with vanilla rooibos, ginger, almond and marigold petals.

 

As the warm weather finally appears, the peach and mint make this an extra refreshing non-alcoholic drink. No-one’s stopping you from adding a splash of gin though, to give it an extra kick.
