GUAYUSA (gwhy-you-sa) is a rare herbal tea produced from the leaves of a holly tree ( ilex guayusa ) native to the Amazon Rainforest of Ecuador. Guayusa is naturally caffeinated and has an awakening effect similar to coffee and yerba mate. In this signature blend, Rooibos is blended with smooth Guayusa for a slightly sweet and fruity herbal tea.
