★★★★★

When I opened up the package, I was concerned at the overpowering sweet smell. The flavor, however, is just the right mix of fruity and sweet. Mixes well with vanilla or ceylon sonata.

★★☆☆☆

Not nearly as strong as I was hoping for. I recommend a very long steeping time, although even that doesn't give much flavor. Disappointing.

★★★★★

I have yet to try one of adagio's herbal fruit teas that I didn't like. This tea is really nice - the hibiscus lends it a lovely, sort of purple hue, as well a floral note and hint of tartness. The blueberry flavor comes through great in this, and the tea is lovely steeped strong with ice and some sugar on a hot day.

One of my favorites alone or with other blends such as the cherry which can be a little tart on its own.

Solidly enjoyable - though I prefer it in blends to on its own. It's both less tart and a little less oddly sophisticated than the Berry Blast, so the two tisanes suit different occasions and moods, and I like them both.

I am coming to wish that Adagio would do some herbal fruit teas without hibiscus petals, however, as the hibiscus can be strong enough to completely overwhelm the fruit flavors, if you happen to get a scoop of tea with enough hibiscus in it.

I love this blend of herbal tea. It was the first tea that I tried in the store and I absolutely had to purchase a bag. The experience is like drinking a freshly baked pie. The tea offers the perfect balance of blueberry flavoring, which is not overpowering. I was expecting the tea to be extremely tart, but I was pleasantly surprised with it.

★★★★★

When I opened this package the smell immediately reminded me of blueberry muffins, which I absolutely love. It brewed up very nicely and tastes even better than it smells. No sweetener needed! First few sips I really tasted the blueberry but after that the apple bits and flower pieces really mellowed it out in a great way! Definitely one of my favorite teas!

Fruity, purple, blueberry-heavy tea. I'm glad they have it, rather than just a black tea with blueberry flavor. I like this caffeine-free concoction, it's like a more mellow, sweet cousin to another juicy favorite, blood orange.

This is my favorite tea so far. I love it both hot and iced. The berry flavor is amazing and so enjoyable. Yummy!!!

★★★★★

The herbal blends at Adagio are second to none. The berry ones are all fantastic over ice, but they're so good I almost want to take a bath in them. Berry Blues is no exception to this!

A wonderfully fruity tea, full of flavor. I really enjoyed this tea and will buy again when I run out.

This tea has an excellent aroma, as soon as you open the bag. The only drawback is, if left unsweetened, it leaves an acidic feel on the back of my throat.

This is a really beautifully fruity tea, with a lovely color. I can't wait to try it iced!

The apple juice like after taste kills it for me. but if it was without the apple, this would be a wonderful tea!

★★☆☆☆

This herbal seems only very weakly like blueberries, and of real blueberries there are very little in the blend. It's mostly the flavored apple pieces. Otherwise it tastes like generic hibiscus tisane.

Gorgeous color. Smells and tastes faintly of the flavor of a blueberry Pop Tart which I LOVE. I'm trying to break up with processed food, so if I can find a tea that helps me get over Pop Tarts, then I'm all for it. I have yet to try it hot, but it's spectacular cold with just a little sugar.

I loved this tea. Light and refreshing and the perfect level of flavor--neither too much nor too little berry taste, where I've been underwhelmed by some of the teas that include blueberry but this one was perfect!

Probably gonna be one of my go-to herbals for blending fruity flavors into a tea. Full of yummy fruits. Almost looks like something I could eat as a snack!

This is a very good, sweet tea. I'm still working on how much to steep to make it strong enough when iced, but it's excellent hot. Would recommend.

I LOVE THIS TEA. It's so good by itself. It's very fruity and just a touch of sweetness. SOOOOO good! Smells great too!

I definitely want to try this iced sometime. Have to be careful not to brew too long though.

Berry blues is terrific! Sweet and fruity without being too much so, the kids will love it. Plus, no caffeine!

I fear 'flowery' scented teas as a result of my fondness of grassy, earthier tones, and as a result, I wasn't expecting much when I poured my first cup. Wow, was I surprised! The first quality I noticed of this tea was its wonderful colour, which I would say was perhaps a burgundy in tone? I took my first sips, and was delighted. I never thought that I would enjoy a 'fruity' tea. Anyway, I believe that the apple chunks mixed with the leaves helped to give it a signature taste.

I would suggest this to anyone with an adventurous mindset and an interest in perhaps challenging your bias against fruity herbal teas.

The only complaint I have with this tea is that it doesn't 'multi-steep' with the same effect as other teas. I want to drain as much as I can from these leaves!

★★★★☆

Very good for an herbal tea! It has a bit of a 'wang' to it, though... I can't put my finger on it. Perhaps it is the dried apple pieces. Anywho, it is a good nighttime tea.

★★★★☆

I liked this one. But bought it on mistake. I thought i had a little left of it at home but i had berry blast, which is what i was looking for. It is still a great tea though, a lot of hibiscus which i love, and it an overall good tea.

★★★★☆

It goes deliciously with any berry mix you're trying, and it goes equally well with black, green, or white tea, though I prefer it with black.

★★★★★

Possibly one of my favorite teas, it has the perfect combination of teas. I could see this also mixing well with a base tea to add a fruit accent.

★★★☆☆

A bit better than berry blast. I can totally taste the blueberry and it's calming as I drink it.

★★★★☆

This is a very good tea. Quite bitter and tastes better iced. But still very enjoyable!

★★★★★

This is a perfect cup of tea! Vibrant, fruity, fun! I love it hot and adore it cold! If you make bubble teas with tapioca pearls then give this tea a shot. I like to use a little more of the blend than recommended and let it steep until the tea reaches room temperature, then I strain and chill. I normally do this the night before since I take bubble teas with me to work. Then I add some tapioca pearls in sugar syrup and off I go! It's delicious even in the dead of winter, so I know it will be amazing for the summer. :)

★★★★★

I love the tangy flavor of this tea! Very bright and pretty in the cup. The lovely smell fills the house.

★★★★★

This is a GRE T berry tisane tea. lot of strong and rich flavor to it.

★★★★☆

Pretty good... fruity and refreshing. Would probably be better cold than hot!

★★★★★

Tart and sweet and a delicious treat! No sugar necessary, although I did add a bit of cream which made it very smooth and brought out the blueberry flavors. Also spectacular iced!

★★★★★

This is my favorite out of the ones I've tried so far. It's great!

★★★★★

I love this tea! It smells fantastic and tastes delicious!

★★★★★

Excited about this tea for summer - it's great iced! And it's not one of those fruit teas that tastes like kool-aid.

This is a fantastic caffeine free tea with a full taste of berry. I could definitely taste the blueberries in there. It is sweet enough to not need any honey or sugar, which is nice as well because it makes it travel friendly. I am quite picky about my sweeteners so having to bring my own sweetener with me when I am going places is annoying. If you are looking for a great caffeine free tea with a lot of flavor, try this one.

This tea is really good. I love how each of the berries adds to the credibility of the others. There isn't one that's particularly overwhelming to me, and that makes a good cup of tea. Really love it iced and over brewed.

★★★★★

This tea is really sweet and yummy. efinitely has to brew for a long time.

I really enjoyed this herbal. It brews up into a lovely, almost pomegranate color and the initial aroma is very satisfying. I explained to my reluctant brother that it's just a 'cup of hot berry water', which, as silly as it sounds, is actually pretty spot on. This tea is sweet on first taste, but the blueberries shine through towards the end of each sip and leave a nice tangy flavor on your tongue. I didn't expect this tea to be quite so complex and it's now a top ten tea for me. Give this one a shot.

★★★☆☆

First off, this tea smell M ZING. If I could turn the bag of it into perfume, I would wear the heck out of it. It is also a lovely shade of pink when brewed. Sadly, this tea just wasn't to my taste. It was one of the best fruity teas I've ever had, though, I'm just not a fruity tea person. It would probably taste great iced, or added into a fruit smoothie!

This tea has a nice tart flavor I enjoy. tasty herbal blend!

★★★★☆

This has a good rich berry flavor, with the requisite tartness of all Adagio's fruit blends. The blueberries will work well with black tea blends looking for a shot of blueberry flavor.

★★★★★

This is my new favorite fruit tea from Adagio, and I love their fruit teas. It tastes great with honey or by itself. It isn't super sweet, and it is a bit tart without a sweetener.

A great dessert tea.sweet,no need to add sweetner here.

★★★★★

My favorite tea so far. Beautiful blueberries that tickle the tongue and make me giggle.
