I wanted to love this, but i found the cream a bit overpowering and at times artificial tasting. I liked it better when I mixed it with other teas i had on hand.
Blackberry, blueberry and strawberry flavors party playfully in your cup like a rich berry compote with a dollop of cream.

One of my favorites. Will be ordering this again soon.
Great alone at the end of the night, or add a bit of Yerba Mate and it makes for a relaxing drink to have all day while teaching a class full of preschool little ones...with a need for the relaxing part.
I found this tart for me. I don't normally add sugar. I had to with this tea. Aside from having to add sugar, this is a great tea both iced and hot. I'll only drink it in the Spring as I like to keep in touch with the season.
The cream effect is exceptional in this blend. Berry flavor is lightly present as well.
A new favorite! Fruity and tart for those who enjoy that! The blue cornflowers are a great accent Apple pieces are plentiful making it very refreshing, but the cream and depth of this tea also make it an indulgent evening treat.
Definitely will not need sugar for this incredibly fruity tea, though the little punch of tartness does help round it all out. Highly recommend for anyone who loves fruit teas.
Very good with cream and sugar. Sweet and cozy fruity on its own,
This tea is guaranteed to put a smile on your face! It's very tart on the initial sip, but a smooth cream flavor sneaks in after. Usually I'm not a huge fan of tart, but the tartness of this tea leaves pretty quick. No sugar or sweetening is needed here, that's for sure. Overall a wonderful experience that calls back to spring afternoons, with dessert (or tea) on the porch!
Made a yummy iced tea. I added a little lemon and it was very refreshing.
Love this! Very sweet and fruity. I recommend cold brewing over ice, it takes the tart out and really brings in that nice citrus crisp
The worst part about this tea was when it was gone!!! I keep craving it!
Well-balanced with both the berries and hibiscus coming through strongly
Deliciously indulgent, I enjoy it with honey and a splash of cream. Just wish it wasn't seasonal, the whole concept of limiting teas by theme irritates me. But the tea itself is delicious.
Very flavorful! The Blue Cornflowers are a great accent and the apple pieces are plentiful. It can be a bit heavy on the hibiscus in longer steep times, but that settles down in the warm/tepid range as you drink. Overall a new favorite!
I cannot stop drinking this one- so warm and flavorful.
It's a delicious creamy treat for a cold or hot day depending on how you brew it. I think it's really flavorful and delicious. The berry flavors are strong and tangy with delicate notes of creme/vanilla. Yummy!
This is lovely! Reminds me of the compote I'd make to top pancakes with. Very sweet and comforting.
Tart and juicy, I can't wait to try this one iced!
It was a pleasant surprise. Not too sweet or artificial tasting. I usually stay away from herbals but I enjoyed this one.
So fruity, and so delicious! A great dessert tea that has hints of sweetness but isn't too heavy, and the berry flavors really come through.
The fruity smell is wonderful. It is a sweet and tart tea. I could really taste the strawberry & blackberry. Very nice and mild cup of tea.
Tart and pleasant, I enjoyed this tea more than I thought I would! Lovely for a nice spring evening.
This tea is amazing! It is tart with sweet notes. Well balanced.
This tea smells and tastes amazing. Even my 12 year old loves it.
A flavorful berry dessert tea that taste like jam.
beautiful aroma and delicate taste. ended up making it iced and it's so refreshing!
It's everything I want a mixed-berry tea to be--bright, fruity, and just a little bit sour to keep it from being cloying.
A good close 2nd to Cupid's Cup... I tend to brew these fruit herbal teas on the strong side.
Absolutely delicious! Potent with fruity flavors and brews a burgundy liquor.
Really delicous!! Thinking about trying to make it iced tea!!
I would not drink this straight. Dilute this with some cream, or else it ll give you a bit of a headache. If you add sugar to this, you are truly unhinged.
This had a surprisingly nice berry flavor. It has a slight tart flavor with a nice vanilla like aftertaste. Yum!
I was really excited for this tea, but it fell short. When opening the bag, the tea has a very strong cough-drop like berry scent to it. Not unpleasant, but also not one I'd want to sniff more of. Flavour-wise, it is very tart and berry-forward. I don't really taste any cream/vanilla flavours in it, which is disappointing since I was hoping for it to be a dessert tea. Perhaps halving the amount of tea and adding the cream flavoured black tea would help. Beautiful colour though!
Very yummy! The berry and cream flavors are a wonderful blend and complement each other to be a great cup of tea.
This is a full-bodied and fruity tea. It's got a definite tartness to it that I appreciate; I think that could be balanced well by sugar. I'm not sure I note any sweet or creamy notes in this tea, which is okay, but makes me think more mixed berries than berry compote.
Berry Cream Compote has an intensely fruity aroma before steeping, and produces a tart, rose-colored tea from the hibiscus. Those who find hibiscus to be an overwhelming flavor would do well to add a bit of sugar to this tea, to soften its admittedly harsh presence. I love the challenge of a tart hibiscus though, and it is mellowed by the creme flavor and the other fruits that are present.
Tons of berry flavor, not very 'creme' forward. It's a little too tart for me, so I usually add sugar. Overall a pretty good tea, but I probably won't pick it up again.
I made this as an iced tea. Oh, my. So nice. It totally made my afternoon so much better when I needed it most. Will buy this again in the future.
I’m not usually a white tea fan, but I really enjoyed this one!
You have to really love hibiscus and rose hips to like this tea. Those are the two most prominent flavors, and they provide quite the tart punch. There is a hint of berry flavor hiding in the background, but I can’t identify any of the flavors individually and they are so faint that they almost aren’t there at all. I think I can tell there is a crème flavor, but it is more of the aroma of crème than actual flavor coming through in taste. Overall, I would have liked more of the berry and crème flavors and less of the hibiscus.
It taste like blueberry yogurt at first. Its very lovely just maybe don't add more then 1-2 teaspoons of sugar, as its pretty sweet by itself. If you add to much sugar it kinda starts to taste like medicine. Its very lovely if you have 1-2 cups. I made a 4 cup tea pot of it but by the end of the 3rd cup it tasted like medicine. which kinda was sad because I really enjoyed the first and second cup. I'm guessing there was more concentrated sugar at the bottom or something. Or it just became to strong near the end.
For some reason, the sample bag size that I had tried barely had any creme flavor and tasted more like Berry Blues to me. The larger bag however had a more prominent creme flavor that I enjoyed, but this tea definitely needs a touch of sweetener and to be steeped closer to 5 minutes for the creme to berry flavor to balance out.
This tea is fantastic. I was overwhelmed by a delicious cream scent upon opening the bag. The tea has a great tangy berry flavor and the cream comes through on the finish. I added a tsp of Splenda to cut through the tang. I prefer to sweeten my fruit teas. After I finished my cup I immediately brewed a second cup. When I finish my sample bag I will definitely be recording this!
The sweet cream helps balance the tangy fruit. Berry Creme Compote is great, served warm or cold.
SO good. One of my all time favorite herbal teas from them.
Unfortunately, all I can taste is hibiscus, which is good, but not what I was hoping for in this tea.
It smelled so vibrant, but the taste was a bit disappointing.
This tea brewed up to a delightful berry color which turned to a warm lavender color with almond milk! I could go for more cream flavor and more blueberries. I enjoyed eating the rehydrated apple pieces afterwards, they were soft and zingy.
this is literally one of the best teas i’ve ever had and that’s really something! perfect with a few teaspoons of honey and a splash of oat milk!
