I love watermelon. This is the first time I'm drinking it hot. Unfortunately, I prefer it iced. Please refer to my review for the iced tea version. I have a big bag of those iced tea bags at home and buy whenever I am low.
Sweet, juicy and refreshing, our Watermelon Cooler when iced makes a perfect poolside treat. Add a pinch of mint or a twist of lime to create a tasty watermelon mocktail.

I wish the mint was stronger in this. It mildly reminds me of Teavanas watermelon cooler, but that was minter and had green tea. This is okay by itself but I feel like a smokey green tea like sleeping dragon mixed with more mint could make this amazing hot or cold instead of just good cold
This has the scent of artificial watermelon (think Jolly Ranchers), but fortunately doesn't taste that way. The watermelon flavor is natural, but weak, in my opinion. This is not a tea for me!
This tea has a fruity flavor but not necessarily watermelon taste in my opinion. It’s not a bad tea, just not what I expected from the name.
The watermelon flavor makes this a great blend to make iced tea. It’s sweet and refreshing, perfect for summer. Happy sipping!
Delicious watermelon flavor! I had it hot, but want to try it cold.
Light, bright, and quite soft
Gentle watermelon taste
Like a soft, cool breeze
Not all in your face
But more chill and hanging out
Mellow melon blend

CommuniTEA Sample: I was very surprised with the first sip of this tea. I enjoyed it far more than I thought I would. Yes, it is a bit more watermelon flavor than actual watermelon, but is still surprisingly good. A very strong liquid Watermelon Jolly Rancher vibe going on. That said, it's not sweet, so I actually enjoy it far more than the candy. This is a good blend that did surprise me in a good way.
I can honestly say that this tea surprised me in ways I wasn't expecting. When I had initially opened my communitea pouch, I was assailed with the scents of apple and roses, but not much watermelon, which is what had left me nervous to try this tea. But upon brewing, there was a light and delicate aroma of apples, rose, and hibiscus, but the watermelon appeared to be lacking from the nose as well. Which is understandable, as watermelon is a hard fruit to translate into tea.
Where this tea really shined was in its tasting profile. The initial frontal notes of the apple were strong and brought an almost tart yet sweet note to the tea. Following the apple, you get light notes of the rose and hibiscus, creating that astringent floral nature that most like in their herbal teas, but the finish... my goodness. The finish really brings in the watermelon notes full blast. It was like I was sitting on a veranda on a hot summers day sipping a cool glass of watermelon juice. The ending notes really brought the entire tea home and makes it a very well balanced tea to drink in the summer. Highly recommended to anyone who is a fan of fruity herbal teas, or watermelon in general.
Brewed at 212*F for 10 minutes and lightly sweetened.
While steeping this tea a distinct watermelon fragrance emanated from the cup. The flavor was lighter and very much like watermelon. A nice refreshing cup of tea. Looking forward to having some iced as well.
We're on an iced tea roll with the CommuniTea this month so far. Delicious.
Great tea!
I enjoyed this one a lot! Put fruit tisanes honey in it to sweeten and it was pretty yummy.
watermelon jollyranchers anyone? this teas good iced only
Made this iced. I really enjoyed the watermelon flavor.
This is a bit too light in flavor for my personal preference but I still think it is a good herbal. It definitely tastes like watermelon with a hint of cranberry/hibiscus tang on the back of the sip. What a nice, light vibe for summertime! I bet this would be great iced poolside. Happy Sipping!
This one was just ok, a little water downed tasting.
I made it as an ice tea and it just was not very strong. Are used a bunch of leaves though so I’m not sure why it was so weak.
This is my new favorite. If you like watermelon you have to give this one a try. The soft, soothing watermelon flavor is subtle but noticeable. I make it hot and let it cool for an hour before adding a little ice.
I love watermelon and love this tea tea. It is so so good. I will purchase more. To me, this is a perfect Summer time tea, or anytime.
This is one of my favorites. I paired with strawberry simple syrup. Totally mind blowing!! I also like it without sugar. Fantastic Iced Tea...
I loved this refreshing tea cold a lot. It was not over powering and such a wonderful cool taste.
I would have liked it more if the rose wasn't so prevalent in it.
This just wasn't for me. I felt like the flavor was pretty weak, and I couldn't seem to do anything to fix it.
This is my go-to iced tea for the summer. It’s so refreshing, and I have it in my fridge at all times to drink during the day. It doesn’t really taste like watermelon, if that’s what you are looking for. Highly recommend!
My son’s favorite, as well as one of mine. We drink it hot but I think it would be great cold as well.
Refreshing taste and perfect sweetness level. It's a perfect summer tea.
Super, super yummy. Really flavorful and refreshing. I liked this better than the iced cause I was able to make it more concentrated.
cold brewed overnight in the fridge. Makes a _very_ lightly flavored tisane. Pleasant taste but weak, probably works better brewed hot.
I m pleasantly surprised by how much I love this tea. I tried it hot but I m sure it will be wonderful iced as well. It reminds me of watermelon bubble gum. For my taste it was perfect as is and I didn t need to add any sugar.
refreshing but not as strong as I wanted it to be.
This blend takes me back to middle school me tossing back some Wrigley s Extra Sweet Watermelon bubble gum during class and getting bugged by my classmate for a stick. Which i am so down for. Sure, i wish it didn t taste as artificial as the other reviews said but boi is it good at what it was trying to go for.
It could probably take a longer steep, but you can taste the watermelon in this one! Great hot or iced.
I use this in the cold-brew Tea Pitcher, and its flavor is a little faint. It could use more flavor for sure.
Yes watermelon tea. Very nice tasting tea. Add cream an magic.
I have been looking for this for a while, I am not dissapointed. Such a taste, in both hot and iced formats it does not disapont.
I added some ice after I brewed this. It was very refreshing!
This is really good and refreshing. I like adding it to white or green tea.
I've only had a chance to try this once so far, but am about to reach six months since I bought this tea (out of season, on sale!) -- a.k.a. the review deadline! I'll update my review once I have a chance to experiment a little bit, and try it cold brewed and try drinking it warm. So far, I tried hot brewing and chilling it to drink iced. That was a nice first go (on the mild side, but with true, natural watermelon flavor!), but I got the feeling that I didn't steep a representative scoop of tea. I've had this tea in blends, and enjoyed it, especially the Mabel blend, which has wild strawberry and mint, too. Delicious and refreshing iced!
This one was okay, a little too green for me but I ve been told that its better as an iced tea so I m going to try it that way and see how it goes.
This makes for an excellent iced tea. An interesting balance of fruit flavors.
Very good, but I feel like the addition of mint is downright necessary.
Too weak and very little flavor, not what I was expecting at all.
A new favorite herbal. I plan to buy more soon. Fruity and wonderful.
I liked the flavor of this one but it was alittle weak. I tried it hot and cold. Even tried cold brewing. Nice flavor but was just weak for me personally.
I was so excited about this tea thinking there was no possible way I would not love it. However, whether the tea itself or me, I could just not get the brew right to make this five star favorite I thought it would be. I adjusted amount of product I brewed, temperature, steep time, but never could get this tea to not taste on the weak side to me. I would compare the taste to a very lightly fruit infused water vs a true tea taste.
It's ok ... not as robust in watermelon flavor as i anticipated it's actually quite mild. probably wont order again with my money. The fruit blends unfortunately ALL always seem to have the same main ingredients of apple pieces and hibiscus. It's almost like the entire menu is just flavored apple/hibiscus tea.
I make this into ice tea, delicious! Also good when hot!
I didn't find this to have a strong watermelon flavor. Need to brew longer.
This is a really nice herbal that’s perfect for summertime.
