Aloha Obama – A Tea Blend You Can Believe In

I was tuning in earlier today to the Barack Obama Pre-Inauguration broadcast and thought what better way of celebrating this historic and monumental occasion in American history  than releasing an Obama inspired tea blend?  Now the question was not only what base to begin with, but also what would Obama himself enjoy?

I kicked around a few ideas- maybe a nice Oolong? Or how about a Green tea? ‘Nah’ I thought, ‘It’s gotta be Rooibos‘  So with that as a canvas I tinkered around and came up with a wonderful African Red Bush (rooibos) tea base deeply rooted  with Hawaiian pineapple, coconut and a hint of dry rum.

Hurry on over to our Herbal Infusions Store and pick up your limited edition Aloha Obama loose leaf tea before its gone!

Thanks for the tip. I haven’t tried Rooibos with pineapple and rum. I adore standard Rooibos, so this might be my new revelation ;-)
