Love this tea. We use it to make iced tea throughout the spring and summer with just a tiny bit of sugar. It is fruity and sweet with a hint of lingering tartness. Very refreshing.
A delicious blend of natural fruits and spices. Bold and slightly tart flavor, with a juicy clean finish.

Such a beautiful color in my cup, with an equally beautiful smell the minute you open the bag. Couldn't have asked for a better tea!
Super berry flavors, just right for a cold morning.
Perhaps it was a failure of my taste buds or brewing technique, but I couldn't enjoy a cup of this tea. It was just faintly tart and I couldn't distinguish between the flavors. Odd to say considering what the ingredients consist of, but there it is. This tea was so dull and boring I might as well of been drinking a warm glass of plain water. Perhaps this tea would be better mixed into other teas to add a hint of tartness, but as a stand alone cup of tea? In my opinion, it's not worth it.
Wooo. This one is overpowering berry! Hence the name I guess. It's good. Especially with some sweetener. Without it can be a tad too sour. Properly done it reminds me of a berry punch.
I can definitely say by now that tartness/acidity is not a flavor I like in my tea, but besides that it's quite a nice blend. It's a lot better than wild strawberry (not as tart, that one was pure tartness, yuck), so I mixed it with Earl Grey and other teas and it gives them a nice, sweet aroma. I'd recommend getting a sampler and see if you like it, first.
A little too much blueberry for my taste, and not quite tart enough, but if you like blueberry tea, I would definitely recommend this. It's quite delicious.
good tart/sweet balance, nice color, i give it two thumbs up
This isn't better than berry blues, but it's still good. It's a lighter tasting tea, and has almost a citrus like undertone.
I liked this one. It's very bright and just a tad sharp. If you really like that just a bit tart raspberry/strawberry kind of flavor, you'll enjoy this tea. I'm more partially to 'Berry Blues', which is a bit more mellow and jammy than this one.
Very much its name: a blast of berry goodness. It turns a deep pink and tastes of delicious juicy berries. If you want something sweet and fresh, this is it.
What a great tea! I tend to use this one as a basis for multiple blends - it goes well with just about anything. Very highly recommended.
I have only had a sample size of this tea, but I would have to say it's my favorite fruit tea so far. The flavor is strong so I tend to mix it with other teas.
Not a big fan of this tea. The smell is weird but the flavor isn't terrible. Only thing that saves it is the lemony after taste.
way better than I expected. definitely a tea I could drink regularly, though probably mostly in the afternoons. refreshing berry flavor that's especially delicious with a bit of sugar to even out the initial tanginess.
The smell is definitely of berries. When I had my brother smell it, he thought it was solely raspberries. I was a bit surprised by the tea's colour once brewed, but the taste didn't disappoint. It is definitely a very sweet, fruity tea with a little tang.
This was ok. I prefer the wild strawberry, but this is a nice substitute when I don't have that on hand.
to me this is missing a little something but my friend just let me know she adds fresh berries to it and its to die for. going to have to try this
This tea is very good brewed hot. I haven't tried it iced yet, but I am going to guess it will be very good that way as well.
I got this one for my sister, who is new to teas and tisanes, and she loved it!
I like this one, it is not as good as the strawberry, but it is tasty.
A bit on the fruity side - but makes for a decent iced tea.
I really love making a cold-brew with some berry blast and hibiscus. Once steeped, mix with some sparkling water for a refreshing summer treat!
Works well when you mix it with pretty much anything.
I love berries, but the combo of berries in this tea tastes a bit odd. It was OK, but I didn't reorder. I'm going to try Wild Strawberry and Raspberry Patch next. I like to keep a cold pitcher of herbal berry tea in the fridge.
This is good iced or as a popsicle. Very flavorful but still kind of mellow and relaxing. Would definitely recommend.
Tea of choice all day long at work. Hard to oversteep (at least to my palate), it's great for an environment where you aren't watching the clock for that 'perfect brew.' It's pretty sweet, so you have to like that in a tea, but it's not cloying--a perfect mixture.
Delicious tea that even my 6 year old likes! Little does he know its good for him too!
What I love the best about this tea is the smell. It's very distinctive and pleasant! It's slightly tart, but not overly so, and it leaves a nice berry aftertaste.
It is VERY tart and strong! I could drink it mixed with Irish Breakfast, milk and sugar, but I don't think I'll finish my sample bag. Just a pinch in the pot of Irish Breakfast was more than enough.
Love the berry flavor. Very mild after suggested steeping time. Let steep a few minutes longer and added a little sugar, which made it perfect.
One of the only teas I've ever tried that I honestly like better cold. Warm, its not bad. Its very fresh and sharp tasting, but if its hot (like I prefer tea) it just makes me think of drinking hot fruit juice. Cold though, its awesome. It also turns a lovely color, which ended up staining the inside of my thermos a bit.
I put down 10 minutes for my time, but that's probably at the very low end. I like my teas very strong, especially with solid herbal/fruit teas like this, so I've let it go for much, much longer than that to no ill effect.
Berries! I love poking around in the post-steeping remnants to find tasty bits of reconstituted fruit. Makes a nice ice tea as well.
Really sweet tea. Very strong fruit flavor. Would be excellent iced as well.
Three words: Color. Changing. Tea. Seriously, brew this in a clear cup or one with white insides. When the water hits it, it turns blue. That blue gradually changes over to a pleasant purple as it brews. Tastes sort of like lightly sweetened Kool Aid. Bright, brisk,and berry!
I love this herbal tea! I shared it with my mom and it is almost time to do a reorder already!
This tea had a great flavor and I look forward to having more of it in the future.
Berry Blast has a pleasant, berry taste and smells great, but there's not a lot of depth to the flavor. Maybe it's because I am not a big fan of herbal teas and much prefer black, but I was not a big fan. I plan on brewing it as an iced tea soon - that might be a better way to drink this.
All the berries add flavor to any tea - and enjoyable by itself also as hot or cold tea.
I havent tried this hot yet, but I tried it iced and it was delicious! Very fruity and tart until I added sugar.
Sometimes, I think I'm a tea dilettante because my first temptation when opening my tea cabinet is to go for the herbal tisanes. This delicious blend did not help me with that insecurity!
Very tasty alone and mixed, though I think it is best iced. It will replace juice for those people who love the taste but hate how much sugar there is in each cup!!
I made this the way the site recommends making iced tea: letting it steep at room temperature for a night. It worked really well, and was a beautiful color. I'm not the best taster in the world, so it was lovely to try it like this. A very raspberry taste overall: sour and sweet.
first sip Yummy... sweet no bitterness reminds of berry v8 almost but way better
already finished my first sampler bag. mixes great with honey bush orange and other orange based teas.
A plus highly recommended
this one is a winner...
One of my favorites iced or hot. Also mixed a little peppermint for added change.
This is a nice tea, but too tart to drink as a hot tea. I make a lot of this tea at a time and put it in a carafe in the fridge to have berry blast iced tea at all times! It tastes even better if you add sugar to the tea while its hot. This is also a great tea to blend with other teas to boost their flavor with berries.
Berry blast is quite tart but has a smooth finish and a kind of... sumptuousness to it. (Maybe it's a hint of spice? The package doesn't list spice as an ingredient, but the description calls it faintly spicy). At any rate, the fruit flavors have a certain fullishness to them, and the overall impression is of a multiple-member berry choir, rather than a thin, reedy berry soloist. It's not a light, simplistic taste.
I brewed a cup apiece of Berry Blast, Blood Orange, Dewy Cherry, Mango Melange, Sour Apple and Wild Strawberry, all at the same time, to run a comparison between them. This might be my favorite tisane of the bunch. I think it unlikely that I will be brewing and drinking Berry Blast straight-up, but it stands up well to other flavors in blends, and it strongly appeals to me as a blend ingredient.
Very intense fruity taste with a bit of a sour bite to it. It's actually too intense for me, so I blend it with other teas to mellow it out. My mother who loves fruity teas adores it.
I love this tea. It's a little too sour , but tastes great with some sugar added. The aroma is amazing.
I did not enjoy this tea, not hot anyway. I won't be trying it again.
