Ingredients & Lore

You've probably heard of vanilla beans, but did you know they're actually a fruit? The vanilla orchid grows as a vine on support trees, with vines growing, at least in the wild, as high as they can reach. In industrial settings, new growth is manually turned down to stay at human height. Flowers are then pollinated via pollinators like bees or hummingbirds or by hand-pollination, with one pod resulting from each flower. Rooibos, a bush-like plant from South Africa, isn't quite as hard to produce, with the leaves themselves being used to make tea after oxidization.
