The smell of this straight out of the bag almost knocks me over with how floral/sour it is. It brews up beautifully though, and I love blending it with all kinds of teas.
A celebration of the apple! Sweetness like a candied apple, fresh tart-floral notes of crispy crab apples.

What's bad about sour apple love to add a teaspoon to my Leo tea.
Literally my favorite herbal tea in the world. The smell alone gives that insane sour feeling where your jaw clenches, but the taste packs a sweet and sour punch & is just wonderful. Perfect pick-me-up tea, especially while working from home during the quarantine!
I has a lovely appley taste without being overly sweet!
Love this one -- has an almost sour orange flavor. Delicious and. full bodied -- would make a great iced tea too!
Love the tangy-ness of this one. I like it on its own, and it's a favorite of mine to mix vodka with for a nice mixed drink lol
Very sour, so I cut it with a couple of different mixes. It tasted almost too sour some days.
Do not be deterred by the apple cider vinegar scent when you first open the Sour Apple bag! This tea has the bright sweetness of fresh apple. Plus, there isn't any cinnamon or spice to overpower the natural fruit flavor. It's also delicious as as ice tea.
I love this tea. Don't let the name fool you, it is not sour, a little tart but that is what makes it delicious. Great tasting, refreshing hot tea.
You would think that for a blend having a name like 'Sour Apple' you would expect me to be less surprised when the tea pulled through on its premise.
This tea has a tartness that doesn't diminish with more sugar, when sweetened, the flavor is a bit more balanced, but is still mostly tart. The sugar made it sweet upfront, but the aftertaste was sour.
I'm glad that this tea was as the title described, but personally, it's not for me. I'm glad I tried it, but I wouldn't get it again. If you think this might be a tea for you, I'd encourage trying it.
Big fan of this one. I've had it during both my wake-up and wind-down routines, and it works well for either.
Not a sour flavor, a little bland, hints of apple but not too much
This tea wasn't bad, but it has a very strong aroma, and a bit too much of an odd aftertaste that didn't seem to fit with the apple flavor.
Makes a really good iced tea! Tastes good mixed with other flavors
I really like sour apple. The sourness of it is fun and different.
omg it is sooooooo good. like drinking candy and i did not even add sugar
Not one of my favorites. I mixed this tea with the raspberry patch and extra sweetener and no lemon. I like tart tea but this tea is sour not tart.
Very tart apple and hibiscus tea. Not a lot to say about it. It brews up a vibrant red and is definitely sour. Add sweetener to this one. Would be great iced.
My husband purchased this tea for himself but after one taste, I stole the rest. The tea is just like eating a tart, sour apple.
Love this one nice tangy blend . It isnt apple but more tangy hibiscus taste to me
Tart and juicy. Great hot without sweetener. Equally good sweetened and over ice. Added some cinnamon pieces, sugar, and cream to make an apple pie tea!
I honestly didn't think I would like this one but I was pleasantly surprised! Not to fruity and yet very flavorful. It's my sons favorite!
Extremely good when boiled in carbonated water and with sugar and honey.
This is my second favorite tea. Love the taste . So fresh.
Didn't think we would like this tea as much as we did. They apple taste is super yummy. Would be good over ice in addition to hot.
Really tasty herbal tea! Fruity and very apple tasting! Kinda like a green apple jolly rancher!
My kiddos love this blend and it's great as a cold tea as well.
I really like this tea, but I wish it had more apple and less hibiscus since the hibiscus is so strong.
The sour taste isn t overpowering, it s just a hint of tartness right at the end. It s tasty!
One of my new favorites! I love sour/tart flavors and this was up my alley! Just a little bit of sweetner and it's heaven!
I didn't care for this one. It has an almost vinegar-y flavor to it.
This taste lives up to the name of the tea. Although, it's more of a sour apple candy flavor as opposed to the actual fruit. I think this one would appeal to kids more than adults.
This is so delicious and tart! Really refreshing tea and highly recommend.
Green apple Jolly rancher vibes!! I love adding this to caramel teas for make a caramel apple or add it to the rooibos cinnamon apple to amp up the apple flavor!
It's like drinking a jolly rancher candy. Absolutely delightful. Like candy in a cup.
Good anytime of the yr but especially in the Fall
The name is perfectly fitting, it's definitely a sour apple taste. If you're looking for a sharper sour taste, you'll love it.
Love to add this to my fave iced tea mix to make it a bit more tart
I bought it out of curiosity. It has a nice taste!
This is really good on these crisp fall nights, the smell alone will make you smile!
This smells just like candy! As soon as you open the package, you can smell the wonderful sour apple smell, even from far away. When brewed, it keeps the sour apple taste and makes for a great afternoon sweet treat.
Found out this isn’t the flavor profile I enjoy in my tea.
I really didn't think I would like this tea but it is in my top 10 favorite teas. Tart but sweet and the smell is AMAZING.
It's actually sour but I think it mostly tastes like Jolly Ranchers or something.
Honestly one of the best apple teas I have had. Most of them apple teas give me a dry mouth, but this one is nice and juicy, if a little tart
this tea blend tastes like a warm apple now and later candy. seriously well blended. i have encountered many teas from adagio that mimic candies / desserts well. another tea on point. sweetened and steeped 5 min at200 degrees
Love the aroma of this blend, definitely like it stronger than recommended steeping instructions. Great down here in the hot Texas afternoons over ice.
Very good, Very tasty, you can tell this is made with real fruit.
First brew was a bit heavy on the hibiscus for me. Wouldn't drink as-is, but it makes a FANTASTIC base for an apple-hibiscus lemonade! The second steep was more what I was expecting--apple at the forefront with floral notes--and great hot or cold. Both sugar and honey work well with the tea, though it's great on its own. Was able to get 4-5 decent steeps!
Over all a very nice tea. Tasted almost like expected.
