Red Espresso is a tea espresso, specially refined for use in an
espresso machine characterized by its rich, full-bodied, warm and
delicious taste with none of the bitterness often associated with
coffee. It contains no colorants, preservatives, additives or caffeine
and has four times more anti-oxidants than a traditional cup of Rooibos
tea. The product is extremely versatile in cafe-style drinks that can be
enjoyed as an espresso shot, and also forms the heart range or
cafe-style "red drinks" including red cappuccinos, red lattes
and red frappes.
