The island is a Never-Never land of craggy peaks crystal blue waters perfect white sand luscious tropical fruit and beautiful inhabitants. And also like Never-Never land once you visit the island you'll never want to leave.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJust ask the American GIs who were stationed there during WWII. After the bombing of Pearl Harbor Bora Bora was chosen by US forces to become a strategic supply base owing to its position in the South Pacific. Subsequently nearly 5000 GIs took up residence on the island. Over the course of the war many of these young Americans fell so head over heels in love with the island and its people (namely its women) that they refused to leave at war's end. Back home military commanders under pressure from the families of the love-struck GIs decided they would have to forcibly relocate the heartbroken GIs back to the US.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWell as a testament to this wonderful island and as a measure of thanks to the veterans who served on and ultimately had to leave their beloved island we present this tea. We've used a top grade Rooibos (Latin: Aspalathus linearis) from the Cederberg region of South Africa and flavored it with the fragrant taste of one of Bora Bora's best loved tropical fruits - mango. Rooibos itself is regarded as one of the world's foremost herbal teas. The pine shaped red needles contain many essential minerals and is generally regarded to have a positive influence on the digestive system. Like the island itself one sip of Bora Bora mango rooibos and you'll never want to give it up - full bodied tempered with sweet mango character - it's a true taste of the South Pacific!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli id=\"tab2\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTea Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rooibos\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry:\u003c\/strong\u003e South Africa\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cederberg\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrade:\u003c\/strong\u003e Choice Grade #1\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAltitude:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1500-2500 ft above sea level\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fermentation\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIngredients:\u003c\/strong\u003e Luxury rooibos Natural dried mango Blackberry leaves Calendula petals Natural flavors\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCup Characteristics:\u003c\/strong\u003e Delicious fruit highlights transport one to tropical climes\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInfusion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bright highlighted with mango pieces and Calendula flowers\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli id=\"tab3\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrewing Hot\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBring cold water to a boil.
