A hit with both peanuts! No. 2 more than no. 1, but both said they’d drink it again. No. 2 is the strawberry fan in the house, and as the strawberry is very much the main event here, I’m not surprised.
Delighted to see that this is still for sale at The NecessiTeas site in case we find ourselves needing more!
This is exactly as you expect it to be from the title. It’s fruit pieces with flavoring, and it does its job rather effectively. It tastes like strawberries and kiwis. I had high hopes for this blend because I love the combination. Always did ever since having a strawberry kiwi frozen yogurt. It more or less lives up to that, but it’s a lot more subtle than I thought it would be. Odd for me to say this, but I think it needed more hibiscus or something. More tartness. But that’s just me. Other than that, quite good.

Purchased this sample to help find a tea to fill my nightly no caffeine niche.
Where are you hiding my kiwi? I can’t find it. And I am not sure why there are rosehips in there, and not sure I could find them, but I wonder if there would be less weird ‘other’ in this tea without them.
I was happy to drink the whole pot, but it was straightforward strawberry so not interesting enough for me to purchase more of.
Post-Steep Additives: none
