26 Tasting Notes
I picked this tea up on a whim, because it smelled good. What a good idea! I enjoy drinking it hot, with just a hint of sugar. It’s good iced as well. I taste cherries, cranberries, and citrus notes. I haven’t noticed the cough syrupy aftertaste that some people complain about. Would definitely buy again.
Preparation
This tea is absolutely fantastic!!! It’s my new favorite tea from Teavana. I love how the blackberries and the raspberries interact in this green tea, forming a nice light cup. And with just a hint of spearmint, it’s absolutely delicious! I love it hot or iced. If drinking it hot, it transforms into the perfect cup with honey (especially blackberry honey!). This tea reminds me of a Czech Blackberry Aloe Vera tea I drank awhile back. Will be buying more of this tea in bulk!
Preparation
Not my cup of tea. Not sure what it is…maybe the licorice root or the star anise? Normally I LOVE herbal teas and I love teas with cinnamon, but this tea isn’t doing it for me. I’ve tried it hot, I’ve had it iced, I’ve added sugar, I’ve tried it with various flavors of honey; still this tea does not live up to my expectations. Will not be buying this tea again.
