Rooibos Tea
Rooibos is caffeine-free, low in tannins, and packed with antioxidants — making it one of the most breastfeeding-friendly teas around. It's a great coffee or black tea substitute and completely safe to enjoy throughout the day.
Unlike true teas (green, black, white), rooibos has no caffeine and very low tannin content, so it won't interfere with iron absorption. It's rich in antioxidants like aspalathin and quercetin. There are no known safety concerns with rooibos during breastfeeding. Enjoy it hot, iced, or as a latte — it's a stellar everyday choice.
