Youthberry / Wild Orange Blossom Blend

Well I was a little disappointed with this one. I expected a little more flavor from the combo but it left me wanting more. It was decent don’t get me wrong, but the flavor was lacking. I’m used to using my Bodum steeper and I’ve noticed that my Breville one touch isn’t giving me as strong of a flavor. Maybe I should steep longer?

What can I say… this is the first Teavana tea I ever tasted.. I felt they oversweetened it at the store. Had a cup today and I still think it’s delicious. I tried the Youthberry on its own and it was ok but nothing special. I really like this juicy blend. Will have to try the Wild Orange on it’s own next.

I got this in a swap a while back. It smells very nice & fruity. It steeps to a nice pink/red colour.
I love the flavours of this tea, but often find it is a little too light in taste. It has become one of my fav teas to ice though.

This is probably my favorite tea as of right now. It’s so delicious and fruity.

Surprisingly delicious! I wasn’t expecting terribly much but it was a free sample with my order so what the hey.

The flavor is very nice, smooth, and fruity. Oddly enough, though, I can’t really taste some of the fruits in the ingredients list. Orange, definitely. A hint of pineapple, maybe. Mango, maybe if I really concentrate. Everything else? Not really.

Still, a nice tea and I am very much enjoying this. I think it would be great iced, too.

I enjoyed this one. I got to it mix with the white tea. I did like it mixed with it. Despite not caring for the white tea straight. I do like this on its own. This might be my last Teavana tea. I need to branch out.

I made this tea in my Teavana tumbler today, and was only able to get one brew out of it.

It wasn’t as good as I remember when I tried it in the store. I enjoy a sweet tea, but even without adding sugar/honey, it didn’t taste like tea as it did fruit.

I don’t really think this should be labeled as tea. Tastes more like sugar water with a splash of tropical kool-aid and has a bitter aftertaste. Teavana advertises this to help with skin and yet they proceeded to load it down with processed sugar and artificial flavorings- both make me break out instantly.. gross.

I have three of these sample packets from some old Teavana orders, so I figured I’d fire up the Zojirushi and give ’em a spin while I get some writing done.

One of the other tasting notes for this tea describes it as “warm fruit punch”, which is quite apt. I take sugar in my tea, but this wasn’t overly sweet even with the additional rock sugar added to the sample. Actually, it was very bitter (I’m guessing it’s because of the orange rinds in the mix).

The sample is aromatic though with strong notes of citrus and fruit. I know there’s tea in it, but you certainly don’t taste it. I can imagine it would taste great iced with sugar to taste. The sample alone was just OK for me.

Maybe that’s why they were giving it away.

Sweet but finishes with a bitter funk. Will not buy again.
