One of my favorites for winter and fall. Fruity, but rich with spices. This is perfect hot, but also tastes lovely cold.
This herbal blend is a lovely duet of classic holiday flavors (cranberry and orange) with the added sparkle of cinnamon spice.

If you don’t end up liking this tea, it would make fabulous potpourri!!! Honestly though, this is a delicious holiday tea and I can see it being wonderful with a whiskey I just happen to not drink alcohol. A cup of this hot holiday drink would put anyone in the spirit of giving… and maybe receiving (if I’m receiving more teas that is). Great spice, a little citrusy with berry notes on the finish. Give it a try if you’ve not already
Greatly enjoyed this tea. A wonderful, surprising, enjoyable flavor. Sad it's sesonal.
This has become a huge favourite with friends and family, the balance of the spices with fruit is just perfect!
This needs to be a regular on the site, one of the best teas I’ve had, period!
An excellent winter tea! This is nice and strong! Love it
Love this! Surprised I was able to get it because it’s usually seasonal, but I can see myself drinking this all year round. It’s like drinking a Christmas all year round.
It's a very nice cinnamon sort of taste. Smelling it reminds me of Juicy Fruit for weird reasons, but it's a very pleasant tea to enjoy in the colder seasons.
This tea is good, doesn't work quite as well with added whiskey as I was hoping over the holidays, but overall it was nice.
This tea has a complex flavor. It's sweet and tart, tangy and juicy. There are hints of cinnamon and ginger to add a little spice but not enough to overpowering the more delicate fruit flavor. The combination is reminiscent of a warm fruity brandy. Delicious!
Not my cup of tea, but my daughter enjoyed very much.
It was sweet and spicy and tastes like a mug full of Christmas. I personally liked to mix it with a little bit of the chestnut tea.
It doesn t taste like bubblegum to me, as others mentioned! It just tastes like fruit and spice. I tend to prefer less fruity tastes, so it s not my absolute favorite, but it s definitely festive. @adagioteas
Very seasonal tasting tea to me, with lots of different flavors competing for attention. The just feels like a tea you should sip while sitting by the fire with a good book on a cold winter night while snow falls softly outside your windows. Anything that brings that kind of picture to my mind has to be good!
Great tea for a cold day. I Loved the cinnamon flavor
Christmas in a cup. Well liked by the whole family
We bought this for my MIL, who loves it and has recently declared it her favorite tea. Fruity and delicious.
very good, sweet and slightly spicy, like wassail without the wine. my kid loves it.
This might be one of my favorite seasonal teas! I enjoy the mix of fruit and spice in a hot cup on a cold night.
Love this tea. The blend sounded interesting to me and it certainly didn't disappoint! It is by far one of my favorites.
This is a great holiday tisane begging for a little honey before bed!
This tea smells divine and overall is not bad. It is very rich with ginger and has a little bite to it. I think it would be great mixed in with the Roobis Vanilla Chai or another cinnamon based tea.
Reminds me of Christmas and warm campfires combined
I did not care for this one. I think im just not a big fan of the herbals. They are always a bit too tart for me.
Smooth anytime tea. Great tea on a cold day. Has a natural taste
A nice fruity taste, with spices that compliment them. Perfect for the Christmas season, and the cold months. I see why so many people love it, but I personally was not a fan.
Too bland, not one my favorites, should be more flavorful.
Best. Tea. Ever. It’s an explosion of flavor and very pungent.
A great festive tea to have any time when it’s cold - reminds me of sitting around the fire at Christmas.
Add a little honey, lemon and bourbon ... one of my all time favorites! Especially if I m feeling a little under the weather. @adagioteas
Bought this one on a bit of a whim, but ended up really liking it. The cranberry pairs nicely with the warmer cinnamon, orange and ginger notes
deliciously spiced and fruity! when hot, its the perfect winter cup of tea and it warms you right up! @adagioteas
Wonderful fragrance and taste like Christmas. I used a little local raw honey. Would also be nice with a little Kraken.
I personally didn't like this one. I've found that any ginger teas are too strong for my tastes and I don't buy them anymore because of it. Very strong ginger taste.
This is a great orange, cranberry spicy cinnamon blend. It feels like winter in a cup. It is good iced too.
This is great for a cold winters night- caffeine free so it’s fine for people with sleep issues!
You just can’t put rose hips in anything without it being the prevailing flavor. But then I’m not a huge fan of the secondary cinnamon flavor. Doctor it up and actually make the toddy that it suggests maybe? Just as tea I’m not impressed.
Very reminiscent of a well-spiced apple cider! The fruitiness can be a bit much if you don't go sparingly on the sweetener of your choice though!
Good but not what I was expecting. It had more berry and less spice.
Do yourself a favor, and let this tea steep for a full ten minutes. It's the perfect tea to end a day full of wrapping presents and hanging ornaments. I don't drink alcohol anymore, but this tea would be amazing as an actual toddy - go ahead and add a dash of bourbon or rum, along with some honey! Treat yourself!
More fruity than festive. Not sure what I was expecting, but when I hear yuletide I think of more spice (and it's listed as a flavor in this tea). I didn't pick up much spice at all. Still quite good - just not quite as spiced seasonal as I expected.
Absolutely amazing, especially as a base for actual toddy ;) @adagioteas
Great herbal tea. Very sweet and fruity flavors. Good hot or iced @adagioteas
This was good. It was a bit over-powering toward the end of my cup. Next time, I’ll try brewing a bit less time.
I got this in a sample pack, will be buying more! A great fruity tea, no need for sweetener! I enjoy it hot and iced.
This was the perfect companion to the Christmas season. I really enjoyed the mix of fruit flavors with a hint of spice.
This is a perfect bedtime tea. I love the sweet fruit paired with spices. I drink this one all year long!
Delivers the flavors of the season in a very sippable cup.
This complex herbal tea blends the ideal Yule flavors to create a warm, lovely , caffeine free cozy winter evening.
I mixed a mug of brewed Yuletide Toddy with warmed cider for a delicious holiday toddy. This spice and fruit laden tisane kicked up the apple flavor for a pleasant cozy cup much enjoyed by the fireside on Christmas eve.
My CT packet had 3 g/ 1 ¾ tsp of all ingredients. Brewed a concentrate of 6 oz. at 212*F for 6 min. The red liquor had an interesting scent, somewhat like bubblegum. The taste was much like the scent. I sweetened the tea with agave and although sippable, I decided the ginger and cinnamon spices in the blend along with vibrant fruits orange, cranberry and cherry would complement apple cider well. The tart flavors of rose hips and hibiscus blended nicely with the sweet taste of apple. I look forward to brewing more and mixing it with other things for a variety of toddys with a spicy and fruity kick. Happy holidays!
An interesting blend of fruitiness and spices, almost a spiced punch flavor. The cinnamon stood out which I enjoyed.
