Honeybush is a South African herbal tea made from the Cyclopia plant. Just like rooibos or red bush tea, it grows only in South Africa. The name comes from the scent of Cyclopia yellow flowers, which smell similar to honey. However, the tea itself is made from leaves of the Cyclopia plant. Once oxidized and processed, they look very similar to rooibos tea. A cup of honeybush tea contains antioxidants, mostly mangiferin, isomangiferin, and hesperidin, minerals, and very low levels of tannins.
Tea drinkers describe the taste of honeybush as floral, lightly roasted, and similar to honey. Although it is often compared to rooibos tea, honeybush is usually sweeter and fuller-bodied. Some say that the taste is "less medicinal" than rooibos tea.
