This was okay, it smells very strongly of Luden’s cough drops and tastes slightly of them too. It’s fruity and doesn’t get bitter, but it tastes rather artificial to me. I don’t think I’d have this one again.
212* for 5 minutes
Oh my goodness! From the first sniff out of the CT packet, I was in love with this blend! The first sip confirmed those feelings. This blend is pleasantly sweet and inviting. It doesn't really need sweetener but I added just a touch of honey. Utter perfection! I can't wait to try this iced this summer.
The cranberry is fruity and a touch tart, the cream adds a nice softness and a surprise tap of peppercorn keeps it interesting. This was a fun, tasty blend that I enjoyed both hot and chilled.
This is a nice sweet and tart herbal. The cranberries and cinnamon were more forward. And the cream toned down the tartness a little. This was delicious iced.
CommuniTEA sample: 5 min @ 212 F. The smell is very holiday appropriate. Smells fruity and like cinnamon, definitely seems fitting for Thanksgiving and Christmas time. I love the color of the liquor, I love watching the purplish hues of the hibiscus steep out like smoke, and I love watching it turn into that almost Peach color of green rooibos! Lots of fun colors, lots of fun smells, and it tastes very nice too! Sweet and mild, definitely fruity, definitely get the cinnamon, and you get some hints of the sweetness of cream. The texture is definitely creamy, I do think I wish the cranberries would come out a tiny bit more in flavor!
I found lots to like here. Opening the packet made the scent made me think of those cherry crisp desserts with oatmeal crusts only cranberry instead. Steeping the tea smelled amazing and I picked up more of the cinnamon and cream. Tasting this reminds me of more like a cranberry sweet bread loaf. Heavier on the cream side with pinch of cinnamon and sweet cranberry not tart. This does not taste like the cranberry tartness that so many amazing juice mixtures have. If they wanted that flavor they should have dialed up the hibiscus and they could have nailed it, but as it is the flower was at most a wallflower. I added sweetener to final half of mug just to experiment and while it made it more dessert like I think I liked it better less sweet and more tame. 212°5min
I like this a lot. Cranberry is not too tart or strong. Get a nice dose of cream to mellow out. I like how it is not spiced to feel like a holiday drink too.
I get no cranberry from this. This tea is more cinnamon forward (to me) than any other flavor. The other flavors are there, it's just that the cinnamon is the first thing I taste. My CommuniTEA packet might not have the proper blend of ingredients, so I will try it again and see if I like it better.
This is a great herbal blend. I love the green rooibos base that's rich, smooth and sweet. The tart cranberry is warmed up with cinnamon and a tiny touch of pepper. And it's all smoothed together with creme flavor. A wonderful combination of tastes.
This tea was ok, but it was tart in a hibiscus way more than a cranberry way. Honey and some milk improved it.
A nice refreshing cup of tea. I enjoyed the flavors.
I love a good dessert tea, and this tastes like a lovely cranberry custard tarte. Lovely.
This herbal offering from Adagio intrigued me, so I was glad to see it in the CommuniTEA rotation. Though I enjoyed my single serving portion, it will not become a favorite. On the mild green rooibos base, all the flavor components of this blend shine. The fruity apple-cranberry notes play with wll with the warm cinnamon notes and the creme flavoring adds a soft smoothness to the already smooth herbal base. In fact, it might add a little too much. I can’t say for certain if I just find the creme flavoring overpowering on the mild green rooibos or if I don’t care for the combination of cranberry with cream. Regardless, I enjoyed the flavors but didn’t care for the interplay between them. I’m glad I had the chance to try Cranberry Cream, but it won’t be finding a place in my tea stash.

It smells and tastes of cookies, and is a great dessert tea.
Tasted just like a cherry throat lozenge to me, all artificial cherry candy flavor and no cranberry! :(
Love this tea. Very smooth and fruity, not bitter at all. Will order again.
This tea has become a household favorite. We love everything cranberry and this tea did not disappoint. The creaminess is the perfect combination. A little local honey adds just the right amount of sweetness.
This tea is so delicious. Very smooth and creamy. Not tart at all. I love this tea with a little honey and milk.
The favorite tea in my office! Great for later in the afternoon when a second pot of black tea would keep you up. A great herbal!
So good. The cranberry was nicely balanced with other flavors but still very present. I thoroughly enjoyed this one and have already re-ordered it. Fantastic stuff.
Great tea smells and tastes lovely. I’ll re order this one
Green Rooibus is my new evening go-to, which has a distinctly different profile than the red (the latter which I do not prefer). This Cranberry Cream is smooth, light, and satisfying - sweetened or unsweetened - when you crave that cuppa after dinner but don't want the caffeine. I'll be ordering again!
This really tastes like cranberries and cream. It has a nice juicy creaminess. I didn't add any sweetener and it was lovely. Its even very nice cold.
There is a creamy flavor to this tea. I add unsweetened coconut milk to it and some honey. It has a pretty creamy red color to it.
This is one of my many favs. I love everything cranberry and I absolutely love this tea. Excellent with a bit of honey. So delish!
A very nice blend. I like how the cream smooths out the flavor of the cranberry but doesn't overpower it.
This is so good, sweet. I add a tablespoon of honey and 3 lemon wedges and it so delish. I would buy this again.
This has a nice soft sweet taste. Flavor is nice and not tart.
I got a sample of this in the monthly surprise box a few months ago, and when that ran out I just had to get a full pouch. I'm not always big on sour hibiscus-y fruit blends, but it works really well in this one because the hibiscus works to enhance the cranberry tartness and actually bring out the flavor profile that's supposed to be here. The cream cuts the sour really well and gives the whole thing a deeper, more layered flavor. Definitely a win.
Very Christmas-y taste, I added a little brown sugar, made it perfect
The loose tea smells 100% like cherry medicine. The taste is not that thankfully. Although it does taste more cherry than cranberry.
This smells fantastic! I could just smell this all day. Anyway, this seems to be a lighter flavored fruity herbal blend. Very nice!
I lived this so much. I bought the sample size and then bought the big bag because it was a hit
This was good. Just not a heavy cranberry flavor which I was looking for. But I did enjoy it. There is a light cream flavor.
Delicious! Simple flavor. I liked it on it's own, as well as paired with a treat to eat. A little cream mixed in also made it a treat by itself.
Overall not bad. I love cranberry in teas, it just adds a nice flavor with the right amount of tartness
i didn’t love this. it tasted artificial and medicinal. definitely not my cup of tea, but maybe some would like it
This caffiene free blend is wonderful to drink all winter long. The fruitiness of the cranberry pairs well with cream. It's a smooth cup and love that I can drink it in the evenings.
Very nice herbal. The cranberry and cream flavors are both present. Perfect tea for the end of the day.
This is a nice tea - I actually ended up infusing it in some tequila for cocktails which was fun. It's flavorful
As a caffeine sensitive soul, I'm always in search of a new decaf blend. I tried this blend last year in the Frosty's Faves sampler and was excited to see it join the permanent Adagio lineup. The creaminess of the green roobios is a wonderful match for the spice of cinnamon and the tang of cranberries. The creme flavoring helps meld all the flavors together in a favorable way. Add some sweetener and you have a sweet, sour and spicy treat. Happy Sipping!
My second time purchasing, and even in a bigger bag it tastes great
Delicious! I love this tea. It has a very nice flavor, I l9ve it.
I love this! It's just like I imagined based on the name. An herbal blend with notes of berry and cream that's dessert-like. Good with or without creamer.
Adagio really knows how to do cranberry teas. I love the sweet, tart and mild spiciness of this blend. Caffeine free too... perfect for a nightly cup
I was able to taste this around Thanksgiving and I recall thinking how nice it was. I love cranberries. I did not steep long as I prefer a less tangy fruit tea. Sipped room temperature was my preferred method for drinking this blend. I will have to try it again using the cold steeping overnight. I'm sure I'll prefer it that way.
Current household fave! A great tea for the holiday season, wonderful cranberry flavor.
I like this tea but I definitely don't love it. (My daughter loves it, though, so I passed it on to her.) It smells fantastic but tastes OK -- a little heavy on the rooibos.
I lean toward black teas and this one is a great addition to steep along with any of them! It adds the perfect blend for a nice cup with the cranberry notes and smooth cream.
