From DAVIDsTEA

It’s your ch-ch-ch-cherry bomb! Indulge in a wild and playful wave of juicy red cherry & floral hibiscus. Once the fruity punch subsides, feel-good moringa leaf and green tea take over to remind you that wellness can also taste amazing.

What makes it great:

Moringa leaf is jam-packed with vitamins and minerals, making it one of our fave green additions to our fruity teas.

This in-your-face flavour profile was created to taste just as good hot as it does iced! Try it chilled for a serious melted cherry freezie vibe.

Very Cherry’s green tea base is kind of new for us. This blend is serving you flavour AND energy rather than the caffeine-free moringa teas we usually develop.

How it tastes:
A juicy cherry punch with hibiscus & green tea.

Ingredients
Apple (apple, citric acid), Hibiscus, Green tea, Moringa leaf, Natural cherry flavouring, Lemongrass, Tomato, Sour cherry, Pomegranate petal, Stevia extract.

Instructions
1-2 Perfect Spoonfuls of tea
475 ml (16 oz) of 85℃/185℉ water for hot tea or 295 ml (10 oz) for iced
Steep for 3-4 minutes
Sip hot or top with ice for iced tea

(DavidsTea 2022: 28)

Was a bit worried about this one after seeing some reviews mentioning cherry cough drops/medicinal flavours, but it seemed to be ok. Mildly cherry with some vague fruitiness, unremarkable green base. It’s fine, but nothing particularly interesting or appealing.

New tea!!

This is one of two new teas from what is essentially this year’s Feel Good collection. There are also a handful of returning teas as well including a renamed Reishi Recharge (now Reishi Relax) as well as an update to Happy Kombucha so that the tea is now naturally instead of artificially flavoured.

This, however, is my favourite of the collection. I feel like at this point it’s safe to say that in general I tend to really love DT’s cherry flavoured teas – Cherry Lucuma is one of my all time favourite DT blends and I also enjoy both Hibiscus Splash and Cherry Berry Punch quite a lot too. However, as the name kind of implies, I find this to be the cherriest of the cherry teas! It’s intense, y’all!

I find the flavour quite punchy and vibrant but also sort of sour! During the summers spent at my grandmother’s house as a child, we used to love getting cherry slushies from the local icecream shop. We would always add a pump or two of the ‘shocker’ – which was essentially a malic acid syrup that made your slushy more sour. That’s what the taste of this tea kind of reminds me of – especially when I drink it iced or cold brewed. About a half year ago I took home a little over 50g of this to drink while I waited for it to launch and I’m down to about a cup or two left (I’ll be restocking though) now. I went through a ton of it in the summer months, in particular. Probably for the aforementioned association.

But taste aside I also find the ingredient list is kind of interesting. It’s on a green tea base (though you don’t taste the base at all) which means you get the benefit of it having some caffeine – which I appreciate since currently the only ‘core’ cherry tea is the caffeine free Hibiscus Punch. It’s also the first time DT has released a caffeinated blend that has moringa in it. I don’t really talk about wellness benefits because it’s not my primary reason for drinking tea, but people who do drink moringa tea for it’s purported health benefits will know that it does not taste pleasant. So what I love about this tea is that the really saturated and punchy cherry flavour completely covers up and off taste from the moringa itself. The other weird and interesting ingredient… tomato!?

Look, I know some people find tomato in tea kind of strange. However, I actually own several teas with tomato in them – it’s a cool ingredient because tomato actually has more of a tangy sweetness than I think a lot of people like to acknowledge them for. I mean, there are technically a berry after all! So, the tomato is mostly adding a nice natural supporting fruity sweetness that helps build up and layer that rich cherry flavour.

I’m really excited to see what people think of this blend – it’s such a vibrant and intense cherry tea that I think is really deserving of the name Very Cherry. One for the cherry lovers, for sure!

Friendly reminder that I do not numerically rate DAVIDsTEA blends as I’m currently employed there and it would be an obvious conflict of interest. Any blends you see with numerical ratings were rated prior to my employment there. These reviews are a reflection of my personal thoughts and feelings regarding the teas, and not the company’s.

I don’t think I’ve ever had tomato in a tea that wasn’t one of those soupy/brothy savory teas but I can kind of see it working. I’ve had some dried tomatoes and tomato sauces that were pretty sweet.

Roswell Strange

One of my favourite blends with tomato is actually a tisane that also has cucumber and orange in it. It’s quite naturally sweet and juicy with a refreshing vegetal note from the cucumber.

I totally love cherry things and this sounds like it’d be my cuppa.
