What is Licorice Rooibos Tea?
Licorice Rooibos Tea is a premium herbal tea crafted using naturally sweet rooibos from South Africa, aromatic anise, and a vibrant blend of calendula, marigold, and sunflower petals. This blend is finished with natural flavoring to enhance its soothing sweetness without overpowering the earthy base.
Unlike traditional licorice root tea, which can have a very strong and distinct flavor, this rooibos blend is well-balanced and pleasantly mellow. It features light notes of natural sweetness that taste remarkably like licorice, thanks to the inclusion of anise and carefully selected botanicals.
Key Ingredients
Rooibos: A naturally caffeine-free herbal tea from South Africa, known for its smooth, earthy flavor and antioxidant properties.
Anise: Provides a mild licorice-like sweetness and aromatic quality.
Calendula, Marigold, and Sunflower Petals: Offer delicate floral notes and a vibrant golden hue.
Natural Flavor: Enhances the licorice-like character without added sugar or artificial ingredients.
Health Benefits of Licorice Rooibos Tea
Licorice Rooibos Tea isn’t just flavorful — it also offers a range of potential wellness benefits. Rooibos is rich in antioxidants, including aspalathin and quercetin, which are known to help combat oxidative stress and support heart health. Rooibos tea may also support digestive health and reduce inflammation.
Anise, traditionally used in herbal remedies, may aid digestion and help soothe symptoms like bloating and gas. The floral ingredients like calendula and marigold are commonly used in herbal medicine for their potential anti-inflammatory and skin-supporting properties.
Licorice Rooibos is an excellent option for those avoiding caffeine or looking for a naturally sweet beverage that doesn’t require sugar or artificial sweeteners.
Flavor Profile
This tea offers a well-rounded flavor that is smooth, naturally sweet, and slightly spicy. The rooibos base provides earthy undertones, while anise adds a gentle sweetness reminiscent of black licorice. The floral elements deliver a light finish that enhances the complexity of every sip.
Despite its name, Licorice Rooibos Tea does not contain actual licorice root, making it a suitable alternative for individuals sensitive to glycyrrhizin (a compound in licorice root known to affect blood pressure). The natural flavoring and anise provide the desired sweetness and aromatic qualities without the potential side effects of real licorice.
Perfect for Canadian and U.S. Tea Drinkers
As North American consumers become more conscious of ingredients, caffeine intake, and sugar consumption, caffeine-free herbal teas like rooibos are rising in popularity. According to Statista, the demand for decaffeinated and herbal teas in the U.S. has been steadily increasing, with rooibos blends being a top choice.
Licorice Rooibos Tea is a smart and healthful choice for tea lovers in cities like Vancouver, Toronto, New York, and Austin who want flavor without compromise. It can be enjoyed hot or cold, day or night, and makes a delightful addition to any wellness routine.
How to Brew Licorice Rooibos Tea
For the perfect cup, follow these simple brewing instructions:
Bring fresh, filtered water to a boil (approximately 95–100°C / 203–212°F).
Use 1 teaspoon of loose leaf tea (or 1 tea bag) per 8 oz of water.
Steep for 5–7 minutes, or longer for a stronger flavor.
Serve hot or chill for a refreshing iced tea. Optionally, add honey or lemon for extra flavor.
Rooibos is naturally low in tannins, meaning it won’t become bitter if steeped for longer periods. It’s the perfect bedtime companion or midday refreshment.
Caffeine-Free, Sugar-Free, and Guilt-Free
Our Licorice Rooibos Tea contains no caffeine, no added sugar, and no artificial ingredients, making it suitable for a wide range of dietary needs. Whether you follow a keto, vegan, or low-sugar diet, this tea fits seamlessly into your lifestyle.
Additionally, rooibos is known to be low in oxalates, making it a smart choice for individuals concerned about kidney stone formation. Studies have shown that rooibos may help protect the liver and reduce inflammation in animal models, indicating a wide range of promising health applications.

Doris Quinn –
Two things…I don’t like rooibos teas and I don’t like black licorice. However, I was the lucky winner of a golden ticket, which entitled me to a couple of deliveries of a few free little bags of tea from Vintage Fork. I got the first delivery at the beginning of June and it included licorice rooibos tea. I felt very lucky because I had won something, but I had a little frown on my face when I saw one of them was licorice rooibos. That kind of makes me sound ungrateful doesn’t it? Or maybe it does, but I could still be the perfect person to review it? I’m trying to think of the right words as I sit here sipping a cup of the licorice rooibos tea because you know what? It’s great. I might not buy a bigger bag of it, but I sure will enjoy this one. So if you love black licorice and you love rooibos, you’re going to love this tea. I bet if you love it, you will give it a 5 star rating.
