I have heard of people using Rooibos, and then actually using the
result as if it were espresso for cappaccinos.

Yes the Rooibos is called a RED cappacino and with a bit of milk and
honey is delicious. it is very popular in SouthAfrica, actually this
is what gave me the idea to try it with green tea and found it to be
quite nice . As mentioned about the chenical content , I wonder what
happens under pressued 100 C steam .
