Simply put, this tea really perks me up after a long day at work. I did find that it does taste better when you add a bit of sugar and ice the tea down. Brewing it with Watermelon Cooler actually makes a nice combo.
A celebration of the apple! Sweetness like a candied apple, fresh tart-floral notes of crispy crab apples.

Another winning fruit beverage. The apple taste is there, along with other fruit flavors that give a strong, naturally fruit-intense beverages -- with no calories. Great to warm me up at night in the winter.
This was a nice Autumn tea and a taste I didn't even know I wanted.
I just recently tried this flavor. I was surprised by how much I like it. It does not taste sour as the name implies but is rather quite tasty.
I get that it's supposed to be sour, but I don't get that it tastes nothing like apple and more like vinegar.
Really enjoyed this one! We could tell that, even in the bag, the tea had quite a bite. Loved it once we brewed it. Definitely a repurchase.
Tangy and sweet is the best combination after salty and sweet. I wonder if it is possible to make the second combo out of tea?
Has a nice tarty flavor, crispness to it like eating a Granny Smith Apple. Yummy.
i enjoyed this flavor a lot. it was really nice smell
This tastes like warm, melted jolly ranchers candies. And if that's your thing, by all means, try this tea. But it's not my thing. I suppose it might make a pleasant iced tea, and I'll try that at a later date. As a hot tea, though, sour apple doesn't translate very well for me.
Adagio's sour apple tea is very sweet with just a hint of twang. I personally love it hot or cold, sweetened or not.
When I first smelled the tea I was pretty worried, because the floral smell is overpowering. But once it's brewed it tastes nice. You get the apple taste for sure and it isn't too sour.
This is my go-to for when I don't want any caffeine. It's great just as it is, hot or cold, and you can eat the little apple bits out of it when you're done. Just be careful not to add to much to your pot, or it sometimes gets a bit metallic tasting.
Yummy tea with just a hint of pucker! Went amazing with a porkchop dinner!
While this has a great smell, the taste is just good. I do like that it is more of a sour note than sweet.
Taste is good, but needs added sweetness. Good iced.
After trying a number of teas for autumn, this has emerged as my favorite. I had disregarded it previously because it said 'sour.' I think a better word would have been tart. Drink it most days now!
I found the smell to be a little off putting but once brewed it tasted a bit like hot apple cider. I am going to play around a bit with mixing this tea.
A sweet and delicious tea! Very relaxing and enjoyable.
Pungent flavor but its not particularly good. I've been enjoying paired with a Teavana black tea.
This is my favorite I drink 3 cups every morning 1 tsp sour apple mixed with 1 tsp green. Gets me off to a good day. This tea is great over ice, very flavorful
Interesting bit of tea here... makes for a nice tart cup... mixed it with a bit of cinnamon sugar and it was almost an apple pie in a cup... good stuff for fall and winter.
This is a slightly spicy but ultimately sweet tea that does well with no sweetener or a little touch of honey. Be careful not to over-sweeten it as that can happen easily. It has a lovely dark red color from the hibiscus and a fruity flavor. This makes an excellent iced tea.
Did not taste as sour as it smelled, but the flavor was great and apple-y.
A good herbal tea to mix with others. Tart, really good iced and lightly sweetened.
A perfect blend of sweet and tart. The flavor is surprisingly light and not too overpowering. Great both hot and cold.
My son doesn't usually like sour things but this is one of his favorite fruit teas so far.
This definitely has an apple taste and is rather tart, which is quite refreshing without any added sugars.
What a surprise this tea was! It packs a great apple flavor with a sour kick. From Nicki at our local location, mixing this with the raspberry patch actually makes a tea that tastes very much like a sour patch kid. Very nice!
Didn't like the small of rotten fruit but it taste very good.
I didn't love this one. It does live up to it's name of sour apple
This one was a surprise. If you are looking to try something new or different, this is a good choice.
This is perfect for Fall. Really good with pumpkin pie.
I personally can't get enough of this tea. Generous amounts of apple and hibiscus dominate this tisane, and the other ingredients make it a more nuanced tea. It's sweet and tart without being overwhelming, and I personally don't need to add anything extra to enjoy it.
It was nice, not exactly for me, I love all things tart, so on that front it covers. Just can't put my finger on why I did love it, my sister was pretty into it though.
Very tasty, really enjoyed and makes a good after dinner tea.
Smells strong from the bag, but when brewed this tea isn't that strong. I think it would make a better ice tea then a hot tea. It isn't bad. it's definitely good, but I think its definitely a summer tea.
A wonderful fruit tea. Just a hint of sourness. Almost tastes like a apple jolly rancher.
I love sour apples and have never been able to find a tea that gives the same twang until now i have already placed a 2nd order and am loving it.
I actually forgot about my tea not only did I over steep it but I let it get cold. I still found the tea delicious with a fantastic apple taste.
Om nom nom tasty apple drink you up, in my tummy, down you go.
We love this tea and it is one of our favorites. Such a great flavor.
I made this as an iced tea, and it tasted almost exactly like a Jolly Rancher candy. It was okay, but I prefer the Raspberry Patch and Dewy Cherry a lot more.
I love the sour version of just about anything. Tasted just like sour apple and smell just like it too.
Very yummy. I really like this one because it's not too sweet (a lot of fruity teas tend to be overwhelmingly sweet to me).
Delicious! Perfect with a little sugar served cold. Strong sour taste, but just my speed. Great on a sunny summer day tea.
The aroma resembles a sour apple candy. Once brewed, it actually makes a good hot apple cider tea. It's tart, sweet, and sensationally loaded with apple flavor.
Okay, when I first opened the bag the intense sour apple smell nearly knocked me over and I was worried, but once brewed this is a lovely fall time herbal tea.
Exactly what it says...sour! A very nice addition to other unflavored teas.
I was really excited about this tea, but it wasn't as true to it's name as I'd hoped. I'm planning on steeping it longer with hotter water next time to see if it enhances the flavor.
This was a really unusual tea, but I really enjoyed the balance of tart and apple flavor. It was a perfect mid September tea!
