Sampled with CommuniTEA on 5/12/21: Berry herbals are historically not my cup of tea, but the addition of cream flavor made this less tart and more smooth than others. I added a bit of sugar and this turned into a very enjoyable cup. 3.5 stars rounded up to 4: I probably won't purchase this for myself, but wouldn't mind having it again. 8mins at 212F
I was so excited to try this tea, since it's been on my wishlist for a while. I knew exactly what it was upon opening the packet and smelling the berries and cream! This tea smells amazing hot, with an aroma that mimics blackberry cobbler perfectly. I couldn't wait to try it! However, like others have said, it IS very tart. Even with 1/2 tsp sugar, it had quite a potent punch of berries, with an aftertaste reminiscent of Smarties candy. The second steep was much more muted, but not really in a good way. I almost wish I could add whipped cream to this!
'Yummy, yummy, yummy, I've got berries and creme in my tummy and I've loving it so much!'

Do I love this tea! Yes, I do! I'm a member of Team Tart and this blend qualifies for membership! The berries and hibiscus make me pucker and the creme flavor mellows it out. It's like pie in a cup. For me, this is delicious drinking. Drink this and sing along with Homer! Happy Sipping!
This tea is little tart, but very fruity. Picking out individual flavors was difficult, but they blended together in a very pleasant way.
Drinking along with the CommuniTEA today: Lots of ripe red fruit scent from the dry ingredients and packet. Once steeped for 5 mins at 212°F, I noticed a pastry cream fragrance followed by strong cranberry-like hibiscus notes. When I take a sip, I detect cream flavor and pucker-worthy fruit punch hibiscus. After placing the flavorful apple pieces in my cup, I get an extra sweet hit of fruit by finishing off my sip with a bit of apple and finally a nice creamy vanilla finish.
A little bit sour a little bit sweet, but completely and totally full of berries. A nice cup of tea.
This is one of my favorite teas, I was making a blend similar for a few months and then found this one. it is sweet enough to not need sugar, but not to sweet like i find some of the berry ones, the black cream tea in it balances it nicely. It is amazing!!
This pretty blend brews up into a vibrant, crystal-clear, hot pink cup. The aroma is creamy and hints of the berries to be tasted. Hibiscus is the main base flavor lending it’s tasty tartness. All the berries are here too! The strongest of the bunch seems to be strawberry but they’re all clamoring for attention. The creme flavor starts with a very alluring aroma, and then fades away until the aftertaste it leaves. This is a very nice berry blend and I think it would be perfect iced.
A nice berry tea with a hint of vanilla and a slight tanginess. It's somewhat reminiscent of Cupid's Cup, but I prefer that tea instead.
A cup of berry creme compote,it is a tasty treat she wrote,just a sample,is not ample,five stars was her vote.
Very sweet delicious tea. I added rock sugar and probably did not need it. The crème was very strong and I wish a little less strong but still a very delicious tea.
Delicious berry vanilla blend! I enjoy it cold steeped and mixed with lemonade for a delightful refreshing treat.
Berry berry good tea! Although I love the berry tea, what makes this a great tea is the addition of the creme. You get the creme at the back end of the sip and it goes so well with the berries. I tried adding whipped cream to get the full creme effect and the addition of the cream mellowed out the tartness, provided some sweetness and turned this into a creamy berry pie in a cup!
I have always wanted to try this tea so I was happy to see it this morning! Very nice berry flavor. I added vanilla milk to bring out the cream flavor.
This tea is a beautiful color and tastes creamy. I added milk and sugar and it was like dessert.
This berry creme compote tea is delicious! Super tangy & sweet! Very beautiful color too.
Listen, it's great don't get me wrong. I do however wish that there was more creme to the taste. Cause i for sure thought it was berry gogurt tea. AND was very here for that.Some day i guess.
I waited too long to try this one, waffling back and forth about buying a sample because I’m not the biggest fan of herbals. But I’m loving this flavor! The hibiscus comes off tart at first, so the first brew can take a little more water than usual.
I cold brewed and tasted it after only an hour, and it was already strong. I’m going to buy a big bag and put it into my regular cold brew rotation, I like it that much.
This was like a fresh berry pie right out of the oven. The Creme and berry flavors blend so well together.
I continue to not be a fan of hibiscus, and I should really know better than to order teas with it by now. A really pretty tea to look at, and smells nice, but in the cup it's the same sickly sweet-tart flavor as everything else with hibiscus in it.
How berry nice 😃 good blend of creamy tartness and fresh fruitiness.
Good, although it is quite tart on its own. Touch of sweetener helps.
Really fruity and delicious. Worth it almost for the smell alone
I bought this one because of all the talk about it on the CommuniTEA chat. Not sure this one is for me though. There is an after taste that I can't identify, maybe the crème. I love all the ingredients except the crème part. Might try it again and play with temp, time and amount of tea to see if it will improve my opinion. I liked it better cold and feel it would be better blended with something else.
This was a try and see. Not disappointed. Wonderful aroma and flavor. Love this one at bedtime. The flavors are all so complimentary.
I love this tea with cream or without. It has a nice fruitiness and is wonderful when you don't want caffeine.
Amazing!! Love this so much. The love berry flavor.
Very fruity and and the creme comes through beautifully!
You definitely get all the fruit flavors - blueberry, raspberry, strawberry. But in the cups I made, I never got the creme flavor. You can smell it in the bag, but not really taste it. The hibiscus made it impossible for me to add milk to make it creamy. I'll stick to the Honeybush Wildberry for a truly creamy berry flavor. I tried this as a hot and iced tea, and preferred it iced.
I really wanted to like this tea but the creme flavor is unnatural, overpowering, and unpleasant to my nose. I tried it hot and cold and while it isn t totally objectionable, I won t make it again.
Has that berry mix smell the kind of like when you dump a berry mix into the blender for smoothies, and it also has a creamy smell kind of like your going to have berry's and fresh cream.
My kids enjoy this tea. They like it hot or cold. They drink it all day.
I tried to like this one, really I did. But it tastes like it can't decide between red or blackberries and just comes off muddled and sour. No cream was detected. Not for everyone.
I bought this tea since other communitea members had recommended it as being similar in taste to cupid's cup. I am glad I tried it and agree that it does have a very similar taste profile to that tea. I found this one to be a little on the tart side and when having it hot, it needed some sweetener ( i use maple syrup). I actually bought this to try as an iced tea since I found the cupid's cup was absolutely delicious when cold, and unfortunately the weather has not cooperated with me, so I have been enjoying it hot for now.
This tea is tart, fruity and goes down very easily, while being caffeine free. All the taste, no caffeine, perfect for later in the day.
Great tasting tea would purchase again. I highly recommend this tea for your enjoyment.
Berries and Creme,
Berries and Creme,
I'm a little lass that loves Berries and Cremeeeeeeee
This is super delicious and the aroma is fantastic. I wish I knew the nutritional value because I am sure on keto this is not friendly but I'll drink it anyway for a little sweetness when I need it. I purchased the sample pack and it'll last me a bit.
I love the mixture of berry flavor and cream that's in this one - for me, it's a lot better than berry by itself. It also smells exactly like the name makes it sound. When I'm scooping it out, I like to take a few deep inhales with my nose close to the bag's opening :D
I really enjoy this tea, both hot and cold. It has a vibrate color and tangy and tart taste that is balanced with a hint of sweet. I don't put in any sweeter, as I don't think it needs any. Its a lovely late night cup of tea or spring time cool drink.
This tea is so delicious! Lots of berry flavor! We prefer honey to sweeten, brings out the natural berry flavors in the tea.
A really great tea! I really enjoyed with dessert!
Comforting and fruity. For people who can't decide, have it all!
Nice berry flavor, refreshing and not overwhelming. Definitely a great tea to drink in the spring and summer!
My daughter introduced me to your teas. She gave me a pretty glass jar of the Berry Creme Compote along with the SimpliciTEA 'teapot.' I now have a new favorite hot tea-with a bit of cream! And, if there is any of the Compote left, I just place the little teapot right in the fridge and enjoy it cold the next afternoon. Anxious to search for another new favorite!
This is by FAR one of the best teas I've ever had!! The fruity and creamy flavors mix so well and the color after it's steeped is gorgeous!
Really enjoyed this one. I ordered a small sample just to try and was pleasantly surprised by the 'creaminess' of the flavor with the punch of the berry. The name fits the taste perfectly. I add a little stevia to sweeten it up and it's just like having a heavenly dessert without all the calories!
Fruity, jammy and delicious! Smells as good as it tastes!
I was surprised at how tart this was, even with sugar added. But the berries and cream flavor came through perfectly.
I love this tea. Tart berries with a creamy flavor. No caffeine so I can drink it whenever I want.
A really great tea with some nice berry flavors, and just the perfect bit of creme.
