Unfortunately, all I can taste is hibiscus, which is good, but not what I was hoping for in this tea.
Blackberry, blueberry and strawberry flavors party playfully in your cup like a rich berry compote with a dollop of cream.

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!
I love the creamy aspect with the berries. The cup brews up as a dark red purple, and the berries sing with the cream background. I love hibiscus, so the tartness was welcomed. It's hard to distinguish the berries from one another, but I enjoyed the blend.
Tart and fruity with a sweet cream aftertaste. I like it. I want to try it with sugar next time I brew it! Makes a good iced tea, as well.
Berry creme compote and so much more! Tart wonderfulness of multiple fruits of blackberry, blueberry, strawberry and yet smooth richness with the creme. Balanced so perfectly and just a real treat. No bitterness or unwelcome aftertaste. No caffeine so drink up any time!
I was really looking forward to trying this tea, but my initial cup has left me disappointed. I wasn't getting any of the 'creme' flavor, it just tasted like a regular herbal berry tea. Will try it again on ice next.
Update: Possibly tastes worse iced. Still no creme flavor, almost tastes like cough syrup.
Amazing nodes of wonderful fruits !!!
Just the aroma when you open the package and brew this tea You are whisked away to a tropical paradise
This tea was kind of a disappointment as it’s heavy on the hibiscus through out the entire flavor profile while the blueberry only appears mildly in the end . It’s not a horrible blend just doesn’t match how it’s described and doesn’t taste different from any other fruit tea . Too often hibiscus is the primary ingredient and it really over powers. I’ll still enjoy this bag I have though , probably won’t purchase again . However as gift I’ll gladly accept.
I generally hate any tea that has hibiscus in it. For me it dominates any other flavor. I didn t love this tea, but I also didn t hate it.
Refreshing. I especially love making it into an iced tea.
Really enjoyed the natural sweetness and slight tartness of this berry blend. Lovely color, awesome flavor.
This tea is great! A bit too tart for my liking but enjoyable none the less. The smell is heavenly. Super happy I finally tried it out after years of buying from Adagio!
A pleasant assorted berry tea. Enjoyed the tartness.
Clean, fresh mouthfeel with a rich, concentrated finish. Add a splash of creamers for a delightful taste.
I read on a different review to drink this cool, and wow it’s so much better as a chilled tea, it’s good hot, but you don’t really get the cream flavor until it’s room temperature.
A nice, balanced berry flavor, with just a touch of cream. I enjoyed this one and would likely order it again.
Pretty simple but solid berry tea, the light cream taste adds a little distinction to it. not bad at all!
Very nice! Reminds me a bit of raspberry patch but tastes more creamy and less tart. I like both! Glad I was finally able to try this elusive tea, worth the wait.
This tea, quite simply, tastes like medicine. I threw it away.
omg so good- i wanted to make so much more - i finished the cup in a split second lol.
i love this creamy, fruity tea. It's sweet and not too tart, and I love enhancing the sweet flavor by adding in cream or vanilla black tea. Also excellent iced.
Berry Creme Compote is possibly my new favorite fruit tissane next to Cupid's Cup. This stuff is Berry City! The berry flavors and aromas are strong and delicious. The creme flavor rounds out the tartness and adds a gentle creaminess. It really does remind me of Springtime. A must-try for my fellow berry lovers!
I was really excited for this tea based on the description, especially for iced tea. It smelled like cherry cough syrup, which it didn't taste like, thank God; however, the flavor was extremely weak. I *much* prefer the Honeybush Wild Berry.
Shockingly delicious! One of my fav teas, maybe ever! Warning: Not safe during pregnancy b/c of the hibiscus and rosehips.
I've been eagerly waiting for this springtime blend to come back in stock. It's bright, tart, and I just can't help but feel a little cheered up when I'm drinking it.
this is so good, it smells amazing and tastes good when you brew it.
Just had this tea again last night. I drink mine 'plain', but it would be excellent with milk and/or sugar. Update: I think this is one of my favorite herbal teas. Next time I will be getting the 'big bag'.
This tea reminds me of a lip gloss you would find at a dollar store. It is very perfume-y. It is yummy, creamy, and sweet. The 'cream' is delicious and makes the tea feel luxurious in one's mouth. I will definitely buy this again.
Our very favorite for iced tea. The color is perfect and the creaminess added to the berries is a real treat!
I love to blend this one with the dewy cherry herbal tea. It s also pretty good on its own.
A nice fruity (obviously) tea for an evening or afternoon tea.
The acidity in many berry teas is softened by the cream flavor. Someone else described it as an 'aftertaste of whipped cream' - which sounds accurate. It makes a really nice dessert tea or blend with flavored black teas (cream, vanilla). Great hot or iced.
My absolute favorite tea, whatever temperature, as it gets colder, it turns into more of a dessert!
This is a really great combination of bold berry tartness with a softening creaminess. I love this in combination with green rooibos blueberry (1:1 blend). (This is a seasonal tea; so make sure to buy enough in the Spring to last you, as you won't be able to get it off season.)
This tea is my favorite herbal tea ever!!! It is sooo delicious. It is tart but then has a smooth creamy finish. I love drinking this tea at any time of day during any season. You won't regret buying this tea, especially if you love a good fruity herbal tea. By far the best herbal tea I've purchased from Adagio.
I had been eyeing this blend for a while and so glad I finally got to try it! I love the slight creamy note with the berries~ I personally like it both hot and cold; the sharp taste of the berries is a perfect pick me up when I m feeling tired
Interesting berry flavor, but can be a little medicinal.
Very nice tea, sweet and sharp blends well with green teas and oolong teas
I got this tea to make ice tea and it was a great choice! Very fruity.
This is a good berry flavored tea with a hint of cream that makes it different but good.
A bit more sour than I usually like my teas but otherwise 'berry' delicious
Very rich color and very flavorful. Though if you accidentally oversteep, it can be a bit much by the bottom of the cup.
This is such a great combination: creme and berries. I love making Iced tea with this
This was really good, but I was not a fan of the aftertaste personally. My nephew loved it and drank the whole thing though, so maybe it was just a me thing. It has a nice upfront berry and tang taste, but the aftertaste is a bit too oddly floral/berry mix for me.
Great little fruity tea. Perfect for sipping on the deck during an afternoon rainstorm
Got this in a sample size, and on its own, it s little more fruity than what I normally like in a tea. I liked mixing this with other decaf black teas, though!
More berry than cream - a bit more tart than expected.
Absolutely delicious and brings a smile to my mouth and to my senses...;)
