Blood Orange Customer Reviews

This is a really great orange tea that manages to have an orange flavor while not being too sweet or artificial tasting. I do recommend doubling the suggested amount to two teaspoons however as I find the tea tends to come out sort of weak otherwise. I don't recommend steeping it longer in an attempt to get a stronger flavor as, while most herbal teas do not get bitter if you do this, I found that the orange rind in this blend could make it bitter if left too long. Overall a really great blend.

This tea is very delicious hot. Sweet and a little tangy, this tea is excellent for those cold winter nights. Maybe with a little spiced rum added as a treat!

Good herbal choice for ice tea, experiment with how much rock sugar to include. Prefer this as an ice tea.

This is really good on it's own but I loved it when i added it to the green citron tea.

This tea is very tart and strong, but I like it blended with the rooibos vanilla. It does not produce a creamscicle flavor (if only!), but it tones the tartness down which results in a tasty orange tea.

It is tasty on its own, but loses intensity against strong black teas. I like to use my herbals to blend.

This tea is fruity, fragrant and slightly spicy - in my opinion, it is a perfect year-round tea. I find icing teas rather sacrilegious however, I could see where some would enjoy this cold in the warmer months of the year. In the cooler months, as we are coming into now, it is warm, soothing, and reminiscent of all of the wonderful spicy scents and tastes of the Autumnal and Winter seasons.

So delioious. Great mixed with dewy cherry or reasberry patch!

Astringent but tasty. Rosehips and hibiscus, I think, add to the over-all taste.

Love this tea! It's pretty amazing mixed half

a bold and beautiful flavor rich with its orange flavor. it packs a zesty punch and I love it and will definitely be getting more!

I love the aroma when it was steeping. The orange smell is amazing. I have never tasted blood orange yet but I instantly fell in love with this. I didn't even have to sweeten this one which is what I am looking for.

This is a pretty sour tea but is perfect for orange lovers like me! Steeped it longer than any tea I've had before but it was well worth it. This was great with dinner as it's flavourful but still light, with just a tsp of sugar. I have also been adding this tea to other flavours - it's amazing mixed with 'fruit medley' and iced!

This is one of my favorite non-caffeinated herbal blends. I first tasted it as 'Zombie Blood Orange' from the ThinkGeek tea sampler and fell in love. I've been savoring my small stash for months.

This tea is delicious. I received it as a free sample in my ingenuiTEA maker and I can't stop drinking it. It smells so awesome when you open the pouch and when steeping creates a spectacular orangy-citrus spice smell in the room. Also has a beautiful red color when made. I have ordered three more pouches!

Absolutely loved it. The description is exactly what the tea tastes like. I will definitely order it again.

One of my favorite, tart evening teas. It's as well rounded in flavor as some desserts :)

I love blood oranges and really wanted to like this, but hibiscus flowers strike again! They add a tartness that I find cloying. I suspect this blend would have tasted fine without adding that extra kick in the pants.

Another surprising tea for me. The orange flavor comes though the strongest but it's a very soothing complex flavor. No bitterness. Very enjoyable.

A very strong flavor even with just a little bit in there but very delicious. Perfect for those stuffy head days.

Blood Orange is a bit finicky for me. The taste reminds me of a bittersweet orange syrup I tried to make once and...low and behold, I tend to enjoy this tea with a weaker brew. It works in blends with other teas, but I don't think I've yet found the right way to make it alone. This tea is still worth a shot, but the flavor seems to be more of a cooked or treated orange/orange rind than that of 'fruity orange'.

This is one of my favorite herbal teas. Not only is it one of my favorite teas from Adagio, but one of my favorite herbal teas in general. It has a great citrus taste and just makes you feel great inside. It also mixes well with almost any other herbal tea. ENJOY!

I'm not usually a fan of fruity herbals, but this one is great. You can really taste the orange, and it's not too sweet like I've found the others to be.

This tea is great. Very fruity and the hibiscus comes through nicely as well. Next time will have to try this iced!

This tea was okay. The orange was almost overwhelming, although I understand, considering it is 'blood orange' tea. There was also a slight bitter taste, possibly from the abundance of orange peels in the tea. It wasn't a bad tea by any means, but wasn't fantastic.

Great to use for iced tea. It is a bit tangier hot, but works nicely when blended with cream or vanilla.

A potent but tasty orange flavor. A good tart flavor and very good for mixing.

Light and refreshing, but surprisingly low on acidity. Good with berry-flavored honey.

Unlike some of the other berry teas, this one does not taste mike cough medicine and the zesty/spicy taste of it is great for cold days.

I got this as a free sample and can honestly say this is a tea that as moved up into my favorites. It's DELICIOUS. The hibiscus undertones aren't overwhelming and lend to the overall wonderful flavor of this tea.

Creates a bright cup, lovely iced with just a touch of honey added

First of all I would like to say, that this really is a good tea. However, it wasn't quite what I was expecting. I was expecting a strong flavor that would stand true to the title of Blood Orange. The flavor was by no means weak, but compared to a real Blood Orange it just wasn't on par. On the other hand they did a great job blending the ingredients together to give a wonderful orange flavor with just the right bit of tang.

I don't know what it is about this tea, but I was expecting it to be very good based on all of the positive reviews, and it was the worst tea I've tried from Adagio, which is a bummer. Like all the other fruity herbals, I can't make it taste like anything other than bland, no matter what temp or steep time I use. I think I'm just not a fan of fruity herbals, so I'm glad I went with sample packs to test them out. Blood orange smells wonderful, but it had a bad aftertaste. It might be better if I mixed it with the Orange black tea, but once my sample's gone I won't be replacing it.

This is a very good tisane. The astringency is amazing as you drink the cup. With this tea, I would let the liquid sit in my mouth and just take in all the flavors. The after taste is delightful also.

I'm usually not a huge fan of fruity tea, but Blood Orange is tasty! It has a somewhat strong Orange-y scent, but not an overpowering flavor.

I got a sample of the tea and really wasn't expecting all the orange bits and favor. I'm not a strong tea person, but steep this one for five minutes or longer...EXCELLENT

Love the taste! I like to drink this one before I go to bed.

Taste is all blood orange. I've tried it both hot and iced and its just not something I care for.

I was expecting something a bit more citrusy, but it's honestly a tad bit tart. I don't hate it by any means, but I also don't think I would order it again.

really sour and orangey, but the sourness can be relieved with sugar, which I use copious amounts of anyway. very good tea, and it smells amazing!

I love the smell when you open the bag to this tea. The flavor is good...just not strong enough for me

I have not always been a big fan of fruity teas, but this one is good. I haven't tried it iced yet but I think I'll enjoy it that way as well.

Very strong, yet light orange flavor. Mixes well with other fruity or herbal teas, and generally lightens up the bitterness of other teas when mixed.

I wanted to love this tea - and I do love the smell and the gorgeous color, but I've had a hard time getting good flavor. Makes a very refreshing iced tea!

This is a tart but delicious tea. I made iced tea with it and it was fantastic. Very refreshing.

This tea easily made its way up to one of my favourite teas. Easy to blend with some of the other herbals with great results! It has an amazing scent and an even better flavour I definitely recommend it!

A bit musky, but otherwise a well put together tea.

This is a lovely herbal tea! No sweetener is ever needed. It's perfect for winding down before bed.

A very tasty, fruity, incredibly aromatic treat. I think it's best with some honey added to bring out the flavors, or with a bit of fresh squeezed OJ in it to bring out the great flavors even more.

I've been drinking this as an 'iced tea'. It is refreshing, full of flavor and the colour is wonderful. After working in the garden, this tea really hits the spot. I am very much a fan of this tea, especially iced.
