Raspberry Patch Customer Reviews

In the bag: About half of my packet is apple pieces. A few large rose hips. Twenty or so dark red strands of hibiscus.

On the nose (pre-steep): Smells like candied raspberries. Plenty of sugar in the background with no tartness. Hint of rose.

On the nose (post-steep): Similar to the pre-steep scent. Less sweet with a hint of tartness. Accent of hibiscus.

On the tongue (pre-sweetener): A blend of raspberry and hibiscus. No more natural sweetness. A tart hint.

On the tongue (post-sweetener): No change.

Opinion: An okay tea, but not one that I will crave. I'm not a fan of tart herbals, so this one isn't in my wheelhouse. The smell was tasty - I just wish that sugar had made it through to my tongue.

Preparation: First steep 7 min, second steep 24 min. Both @ 212 ℉. ½ teaspoon monk fruit sweetener.

I was expecting this to be very tart based on the hibiscus and rose hips, and the smell from the packet contents. However, it was a rounded and jammy flavour. This is inconsequential, but I also love the stunning colour of this blend. Steeped 8 min @ 195º.

The hibiscus was really noticeable in my cup, and I liked that a lot.

It’s good hot, but possibly better cold. It has a raspberry, tart hibiscus flavor.

Generally the fruit tisanes are hit-or-miss with me. This one was quite pleasant hot with a bit of stevia. But it really was delightful over ice. I think I would be willing to drink this as an ice tea in the summer, without any complaint ;)

A very raspberry tasting tea! It’s lovely hot and iced. Brewed at 212• for 7 minutes.

I was expecting this to be too tart as a hot tea, but it turned out nice and jammy. Steeped 5 mins at 212. Not sure if I’m just getting more accustomed to hibiscus or if I had lots of apples in my sample pouch, but it was really good. I’m sure it’s tasty cold, too.

This is the first tea I've tried from Adagio and i am obsessed. So much flavor! You can identify every note in this. Definitely purchasing the full sized!

Drinking this feels like sitting in a raspberry patch sneaking some raspberries.

Absolutely delicious. It has the perfect amount of berry flavour without being too strong.

LOVE this one! The perfect amount of tartness without being overpowering. And didn’t require a double spoon of tea to make the flavor strong enough either. Not overloaded with apple pieces, really great balance.

Always a favorite in our home! I have so many options for blending it with other fruity herbals - blood orange, berry blast, sour apple. I make it up double strength and chill it for a refreshing “juice”

Nice raspberry flair without being too tart. Smells great when you open the bag. Would recommend for a nice morning or afternoon tea

Just a little tart, overall impression is smooth. Glad to find an herbal without rooibus, which disagrees with me.

I bought the tea bags and made this as an iced tea so my review is based on that. I really don't like raspberry but figured I would try Adagio's since they use natural flavors. I'm glad I did because this is pretty good. It's jammy and juicy, not tart and not sweet. If you like sweet you'll have to add sugar

This smells exactly like a raspberry patch. I steeped for about 8 mins at 212 and the flavor was a little underwhelming compared to the smell- but still delcious! Next, I'll be trying this cold brewed in hopes that'll help draw out more flavor.

Love this tea blend. I am an iced tea drinker and I use this in my iced tea maker. This comes out so flavorful with a nice red color. Highly recommend!

Lovvveeee this. It's super fruity and delicate and is one of the best herbal blends.

Nice tart very strong raspberry flavor, love it! Drink it by itself or I also use it to add more raspberry flavor to the raspberry black tea.

One of my favorites from Adagio! I think I love it cold brewed best but hot is great as well!!

Very tasty tea, a good blend of sweet and tart, but neither is overwhelming. Does not resteep well.

8 min steep · 212°F

The flavor is so fruity and sweet smelling on a cold winter night. Great to have with a slice of toast, and only needs sweetener. Recommend the smallest amount of honey, and it is perfect.

Very tasty raspberry forward herbal tisane. The raspberry is pretty strong and delicious!

This tea brewed up to a dark rich red. The flavor was subtle and with hints of sweetness. I would try this again.

Very tasty. Not overly fruity. Incredibly soothing and delicious as an iced tea. Love using fruit herbal teas for my weekly iced tea. Friend of mine highly recommended you guys, finally got around to trying teas and so far I'm impressed.

Only thing I can ask for separately is bump up the 15 bags to 16 because I usually use 4 bags per 2 qts. 15 is a very odd number, tried it with 3 bags, wasn't flavorful enough.

not my favorite. tastes very strong like medicine.

Normally I don't drink hibiscus tea, and I bought this mainly for my daughter. But ... I don't hate it.

love the raspberry flavor, I had to order more not just a sample

I made my Raspberry Patch iced with some extra hibiscus and fruit tisanes honey. This tea does bite! In a good way. Mainly because of the raspberries. The honey does cut through the tartness of the raspberries a bit, which is nice. But raspberry is the overwhelmingly dominant flavor. You can't even taste the hibiscus. I love this tea and would definitely recommend it!

Oh I love this herbal. After the berry creme compote, this is my go to herbal. I LOVE adding a little of this to the raspberry black tea to bring out more raspberry flavors. Also is great iced. Highly highly highly recommend this one. It is amazing.

This is mostly sour. I brewed this to be an iced tea, which means that I put practically the entire sample into a tea ball and filled the pitcher w/ hot water for 10 mins. I tasted it hot and meh, and then I tasted it cold and it was sour, but not in a refreshing way. Maybe it needs to be brewed with another blend, I don't know.

After Berry Creme Compote, this is my favorite summer iced tea. I brew it strong and pour it over ice. I do add a bit of sugar free sweetener. I'll also make a 'raspberries and creme' drink by adding some sugar free vanilla syrup and a splash of cream. Occasionally, I'll mix in some wild strawberry tea when brewing, and it's an excellent combination.

Packs a punch of fruitiness without the caffeine!

Great Raspberry flavor. Great summertime treat. Especially Iced.

I was pleasantly surprised by the raspberry patch tea. It is a wonderfully fruity tea to start a day with.

This herbal tea is comforting and fruity. Another herbal tea that my husband loves. He has to watch his blood pressure and this tea doesn't have any licorice root In it. So it is safe for him to drink.

Very strong tart flavor. It is better to have cold in my opinion and is a wonderful summer time drink. First brew hot though, then cool it down. Might need to add some sweetness.

A delicious tea for the summer moths using a variety of berries.

Heavenly aroma, but super subtle flavor. I really wish it were bolder. Maybe next time I will try doubling the amount of tea leaves. I mixed this with Berry Blues and really enjoyed it prepared that way (iced and lightly sweetened with stevia).

This is such a refreshing iced tea for the warmer weather❤️. It’s also good warm with a little honey and lemon. It is a sweet tea without adding sugar. I just ordered two more bags.

Really good. Sweetened cold brew is like eating a raspberry candy.

I liked this cold brewed. Has a slight raspberry taste.

Good herbal tea, my husband’s favorite, a little mellower than some with sharper notes like mango or cherry.

I cannot get enough of this. It's so yummy and it makes a delicious iced tea to go with lemonade for the most amazing half and half.

Great tea! I was scared of trying raspberry tea as it was my first time but I really liked it and would definitely buy again.

oh my gosh!!! This tea is so amazing! I added a little honey to this tea! I will be ordering more of this soon.

This is excellent as iced tea. I make by the pitcher for the heat of the summer.

Very good, very good with mint added a nice zingy tea

Amazing! Iced, hot or even as a flavoring to my soda water, this hearbal tea is the best. Incredible fresh raspberry flavor.

7 min steep · 212°F

Oh Raspberry Patch, the feelings I have for you! Amazing hot or iced. I also like to add a tbsp to other teas to give it a distinct flavor. Pair this with Toxic Blossom and you can thank me later!
