The coolest new pack you’ve seen around town is… ahahha, no, not vitaminwater! Eeucck! It’s BOS. A new locally produced range of iced rooibos teas. Simple, bright and bold, and yes, they all taste pretty good. Actually, not true, I didn’t really enjoy the Apple one. Couldn’t put my finger on it, but it fell short of how delicious the others tasted. The lemon one was the best. Even the bloody Slim one tasted good, which slightly repulses me, being a diet-oriented product. I had to go and eat a double-cheeseburger afterwards to make up for it. But you can’t knock what they’ve done here. Iced rooibos tea with natural flavourants. And a quirky design – which reminds me a lot of Afro-coffee, no? Flavours are Peach, Lemon, Apple, Slim and Energy. I drank all five in one sitting and felt remarkably good after. I’ve also picked up a few around town, and another good thing is they’re not expensive (under R10).
People have tried the rooibos iced tea thing before but nothing has really caught on. I hope BOS does. And not just cos they sent me a bright yellow cooler bag. Though it helps, of course. And the packaging, done by The President. Who else? That design agency is freaking everywhere at the moment.
