mmmmmm, strawberry. very strong strawberry flavor and tastes great as an iced tea
This is a nice berry taste especially if you really like strawberry. It does need steeped for awhile to get it to the full flavor and it doesn’t take well to second steeps but the flavor it great
Bright, tangy, and makes an excellent iced tea. You can definitely taste the hibiscus, IMO, so make sure you like that before getting this. I love it.
The strawberries in this tea, despite being dried and clearly not fresh off the vine, are super juicy and flavorful and, yes, FRESH, once rehydrated! My favorite way to enjoy this tea is just plonked in a bucket of water and left to cold brew for an ambiguous amount of time, but usually at least 20 minutes or so. Throw in some ice and you’ve got a super refreshing, mildly sweet, and very plump-tasting beverage to cool down with. You can go buck wild, if you want, and add a slice or two of fresh lemon for a strawberry lemonade feel, but I dig the sort of homemade strawberry jam taste all on its own. Seriously, this has become one of those essential brews in my house and I absolutely adore it.
Never tried it hot, but I can imagine it in my taste-mind and it already sounds pretty cozy.
Extremely good ! I usually drink this iced, and mix it with other flavors, but its very nice on its own as well
Way too sour for my liking, even with sugar. i will brew for less time and see if it makes a difference.
This was fine. I like hibiscus, so that doesn't automatically ruin it for me, but it would be nice to taste the other flavors that are promised. I did get a little something, it just wasn't strawberry. Which was disappointing. I think a shorter steep would have helped, but I accidentally let it steep for over 10 min and that might have killed the strawberry flavor. (reviewed through CommuniTEA; too long @ 212F... I would shoot for 5 min next time)
I’ve drank this many many times, mostly after cold brewing it for twelve hours at minimum. Although it I do steep it, then I prefer to steep it seven minutes with some rock sugar.
I do enjoy this tea but note this is sour/tart if steeped and sipped hot, in which case I do find myself adding more sweetener than normal.
It's tart and flavorful. I usually associate wild strawberries as being sweeter, but this is still good. Would make a great iced tea.
Yum yum yum!!! What a delicious tea, I coldbrewed and had it cold it was extremely refreshing and juicy if that makes sense! A tasty summer treat!
I really enjoyed this tea, it’s great hot or iced. It has a bit of a tartness that goes well with the fruity sweetness, making it a very refreshing cup of tea. I would definitely have this tea again.
A tart and sunny tea that is great when chilled and mixed with a lemonade.
Summery deliciousness all the way!! The beautiful strawberry and rhubarb in this tea you up in the sweetest way possible. I love it!!
I really like this tea, especially iced. The strawberry flavor is a bit subtle and not artificial tasting. It's a tad tart but a little sweetener takes care of that. It's not my favorite tisane but it's up there.
I made this primarily as iced tea. Very delicious! Juicy
Opening the pouch, I smelt something akin to a strawberry fruit roll-up. Brewed, it was slightly more mellowed on the sweetness end, but still just as a strong a strawberry smell. I added some of the rock sugar on advice from the chat, and that really brought home the strawberry taste. This might be one of my favorites of the fruit tisanes.
I really enjoyed this tea. I drank it hot and warm, mostly, and I loved it a lot, but I also think it would be really fantastic iced, too (though I would brew it hot and then pour it over ice). Do keep in mind that I really like hibiscus and it's sour/tart flavor. I also think the strawberry came through really well. Overall, for me this was a really enjoyable tea.
I brewed at 212F for about 8 minutes or so.
This tea was very enjoyable with an extra boost of strawberry flavor. My CT packet today had all the tart flavored ingredients with some apple pieces and two tiny slivers of strawberry. I knew the small amount of strawberry would need an extra boost to balance the flavor of team tart. I added a big piece of freeze dried strawberry to the loose tea. The 3 g/ 2 ½ tsp. of packet tea + a strawberry slice allowed for a 12 oz. brew.
I brewed at 212*F for 5:30 minutes and a rosy red liquor appeared. The initial sip was tart but a honey add tamed the sharp taste nicely while allowing the wonderful strawberry flavor to bloom. After sweetening, the tea seemed beautifully balanced with a pleasant mix of tart and sweet berry flavor. I chilled a portion to try cold and it was delicious with a light, sweet berry flavor and a much subdued tart taste. A resteep with another strawberry flavored tea was also enjoyable. I liked this blend enough to add extra strawberries when needed. It's a good one too, to blend with other teas. Torn between rating it 4 or 5 stars, I'll give it a 5 star one because it’s good enough to purchase.
A nice herbal, would work well in blends. Best with a sweetener
I cold brewed today's Communitea sample. The result was a slightly tart tea with a lovely strawberry flavor.
Refreshingly tart and fruity. I used 10 oz of water at 200° For 12 minutes and then added 1tsp of Adagio honey for fruit tisane. I enjoyed it hot and if I’d had more I would’ve tried it cold too.
Another great fruit blend! When cold steeped, this one taste of tart hibiscus, with a taste of sweet berry. A bit of sweetener (or a generous splash of lemonade) brings out the berry flavor to the front. “Berry” tasty!
Didn't have the opportunity to try this CommuniTea sample until late in the day which is perfect for an herbal. Some may find the hibiscus too tart but I thought it played well with the strawberry. Wanted to try this iced but it was so good it was gone before I had a chance to chill.
Very flavorful sweet strawberry tea. Perfect for an afternoon break.
A little sour from the hibiscus and rose hips, but largely pleasant when iced.
Enjoyed this much more than I thought I would. I was concerned about bad artificial tastes and that was not an issue. While warm there was a nice jam like aroma that brings back memories of making jam with my mom. Not too tart or sweet. My cup was just right after adding a bit of honey. I cooled the last half of my cup and then added lemonade. What a great strawberry lemonade. Made a nice cocktail with a couple frozen strawberries and a little vodka.
Steeped at 212° for 7 mins. Just wish you could steep twice. Enjoy!
Very nice! Without sweetener, it's overly tangy, but with sweetener this is a lovely strawberry tea.
The dry blend had a very nice strawberry aroma. Once brewed, it had very little strawberry flavor though. It make a cheery, rosy red cup that's a little tart, and a little sweet. Was hoping for a bit more strawberry though. Perhaps it's best cold-brewed and enjoyed iced.
Tasted this with the CommuniTEA as a cold brew. It makes a delicious iced afternoon treat for a warm day.
Great strawberry flavor! I brewed it for an iced tea and the flavor is crisp and refreshing!
A lot of strawberry fragrance and taste. Had it hot 10 mins, @ 212 with a little sweetener. Included in my next shipment so that I can try it iced. Delish
I read some other reviews before trying, and listened to how they brewed it to decrease the tartness. Simply delicious
18 Aug 2020 review: Even though I added 1/2 teaspoon of sugar, my first tastes were very sour when hot. Fearing that I had steeped this one too long at 7 minutes, I gave it a chance and let it cool down to warm before continuing my review. When warm, pleasant and tasty strawberry flavors came forward, but the sourness from the rose hips & hibiscus remained. I’m afraid that what I did by steeping too long made this a middle of the road tasting sip. Now I know why I usually go for lower steep times when rose hips and hibiscus are involved. I truly believe that a steep of 4 mins @ 212F would have made this a better drink by far! (7 mins @ 212F, 1/2 tsp sugar)
This is very lovely as a cold brew. STRONG fruit, not quite the punch in the face that the Fruit Medley tea is, but close.
I was worried that this would be too tart, but I think it is actually very well balanced. There is a strong, sweet, ripe strawberry taste and a tartness as well, both complimenting each other. The brew is a glorious pink! Warning though--this got more tart as it cooled.
I wish that this wasn't so tart and hibiscus-y, but I don't know if the strawberry flavor would be able to come forward without it. This is super tasty and smells like a true to life strawberry. This would make excellent jamaica.
I am usually not an herbal tea fan, however I did enjoy this iced. The strawberry flavor is wonderful, didn't even have to sweeten it.
UPDATE: I really like to cold brew this tea! The hibiscus is mild compared to some other herbal blends.
A solid fruity tea with no caffeine. The fruit flavors all blended together and I didn’t outright taste strawberry, more of a general fruit flavor.
Strawberry lovers can definitely enjoy this regardless of how tart or sweet preferences are. I used sugar to bring out the flavor. Gorgeous red color will not be present for a re-steeping which is a shame.
CommuniTEA Sample: An excellent Strawberry Herbal tea that is good hot or iced. It doesn't taste artificial or medicinal at all, but tastes a bit like some strawberry jam. It reminds me of eating some of my grandma's fresh jam on some toast. Very good!
Nope, nope, and nope. Another heavy, potpourri tea that just doesn't work for me.
I love the ruby red elixir that is Wild Strawberry tea! I use it in blends when I want to add a sweet strawberry flavor. I can see how it would remind people of Kool-Aid, but strawberry was always my favorite flavor of it, so I really don't mind!
I love the smell of this tea. I cold brewed it over night and enjoyed it for breakfast. It was a bit too tart for my liking. I am sure this would be great if sweetener was added, it just isn't my preference. If I were to try this again, I would add some fresh berries.
A delicious herbal tea with a nice strawberry flavor!
This tea is tart and refreshing, and smells like a strawberry patch! It is great hot or iced. It can stand on its own, or be blended with other teas. It brews up to a very pretty pink color.
I tried this tea iced and it was quite lovely. My only real complaint is the overabundance of hibiscus in the tea, it really gives it an overpowering hibiscus flavour that most would not find enjoyable when they are expecting a mainly strawberry flavoured tea. Worry not though, theres still plenty of strawberry flavor to go around.
I cold brewed overnight for about 8 hours and very lightly sweetened.
A tart strawberry
That's picked early off the vine
Not the sweet treat kind
Will make you pucker
Still you'll reach for another
Thinking that's just fine!
(Haiku review)
This tea is sour tasting to me even with a few sugar packets added to it. It is a lovely pink color though. Might taste better iced than it does hot.
Definitely a tea that is meant to be iced with a touch of sweetener.
