A lovely herbal blend that smells and tastes great!
A blend of sweet passionfruit, luscious mango and a hint of tangy apricot will whisk you away to sunny shores.

A lovely herbal blend that smells and tastes great!
This one is fine, but the fruit flavors I was looking forward to are really weak even with the recommended steep time. So it's not my favorite.
I got this in the July CommuniTEA box. The apricot notes were nice, but ultimately, I found the blend to not have much taste at all. I think perhaps I just don't like green rooibus!
I really enjoyed this tea at first. As the tea continue to cool I could taste the apricot flavors more and I sadly am not a huge apricot fan. So if you don't like apricots this tea isn't for you.
While I did enjoy the green rooibos Bonita more than this Key West blend, this flavor profile was still delicious! Fruity, tropical, and also as mellow as a beach sunset. Definitely recommend for a good summer cuppa!
Green rooibos & tropical fruit. Smells fruity, tastes mostly of green rooibos. Too mild, needs way more fruit flavor. If you want a comforting but slightly boring cup of caffeine-free tea (after dinner?), this fits that need.
I sampled this tea as part of the July CommuniTEA. I would have normally never picked this because something about “Key West” threw me off. I really enjoy green rooibos, and I really enjoy the citrus notes in this. It makes for a great afternoon or evening sipper, as the citrus is bright yet calming and the rooibos won’t keep you up at night. The slight herbaceous notes of the green rooibos add a level of complexity that make this more fresh feeling that if it were a red rooibos.
This tea tastes much better than it smells. I’m not a roobios fan normally. This tea hasn’t converted me but it is pretty good. Enjoyable but not a keeper.
What a great fruity tea. I made it into an ice tea and I highly recommend serving it that way. You can taste the tropical fruits and the green roobios plays in the background
I did not think I would like this judging by the smell, but it tastes amazing. The top note is apricot. I could not really taste the mango or passion fruit. The rooibos is more of an aftertaste, making a refreshing punctuation to each sip. I think this would be great iced.
This tea is really good and fruity.
I really enjoyed this tea! I'm normally not a fan of fruity teas, but I was surprised by how good this one is! The strongest flavor was the apricot. Was good hot, but I'm sure would be fantastic iced. (5 min @212)
While I liked the flavor I could taste, this was just not strong enough for me: the flavor was too lite and almost non-existent
(July CommuniTEA box)
Even though I do not like green rooibos, this blend is not bad. It's mild and smells nice.
Nice, mild green tea. Smoother'mouth feel' than many green teas (or maybe I'm just getting better at following recommended steep times!) The 'key west' flavors were not as strong as I would have liked. Very subtle. Still, a good tea! Only tried hot, may be delicious iced.
A light, very pleasant tea when drunk warm and unsweetened. Flavors really pop when iced and lightly sweetened.
A bit lackluster in flavor for my liking. I added some honey and it brought out the flavor a bit but this is not a tea I would purchase for myself.
This is lovely. I steeped for 4 minutes but it could certainly use the recommended extra minute. I added a touch of the raw honey for rooibos.
What a wonderful blend of fruit for this rooibos. The Apricot lends a sweet element to this brew.
I'm not a fan of green rooibos tea. (Though I was surprised to read in a few other reviews that it bothered some who've tried it.) Green rooibos has almost no flavor to me. So any blend made with it as its base pretty much tastes like whatever's been added to it. I gave this one 3 stars because the flavor blend actually resulted in a good tasting tea. Not all of the fruits made me think of Key West (apricot?), but they combined well. If you are into green rooibos, I recommend it.
I do not usually care for rooibos tea but I must admit I like this one a lot...possibly due to the prevailing taste of apricot. I drank it hot, without any additions. Yum.
My FAVE over ice! I can usually get two steepings or so with this one. Great tropical flavor!
Really fresh and sweet with an interesting exotic twist.
This grew on me fast. Mild rooibos flavor with a vague fruitiness that's very pleasant.
This is a good tea and has really grown on me.
I like this tea - the flavors are great - but I find it a lot lighter than the Bonita. I.e., it's quite faint in comparison. I'll do more experiments to bring it out, but either way, it makes a good iced tea with lemon.
This is my favorite tea for an afternoon treat or an evening cup. It has tropical flavors that really hit the spot!
Strong Apricot aroma and I love the soft apricot finish at the end.
Yummy this was great! I really enjoyed it.
Definitely one of my favorite teas on this site! It's a unique blend, very light and well rounded. I use it for iced tea and it's perfect, not needing any sweetener or even milk. I love it so much I'll need to get a lot more soon.
I love this herbal tea! It’s like being on an island oasis with tropical breezes blowing and a tropical drink in my hand!
This tea was pretty neutral for me, not good or bad. I'm not a huge fan of the tropical fruits, so you might enjoy it more if you were.
This was very mildly citrusy. I wanted more of a punch of flavor- maybe it would be better brewed stronger and for iced tea.
This is a tea that works very well as a cold brewed iced tea! Just make sure you use an infuser with *very* small holes, as the green rooibos will slip right through otherwise.
Decent flavors, but too subtle and light. Would prefer a stronger taste.
This tea has a pretty fresh, mellow flavor. I do wish it was a tiny but stronger but overall very good.
I may not have steeped this one long enough because I was looking for a more robust flavor fruitwise. It was light and tasty, worth another try.
Nice smooth tea flavor, but I didn't get pickup any of the added fruit flavor, might be worth another brew to be certain.
This is our family’s favorite tea! It is fruity and fragrant and caffeine-free. Perfect for all ages.
One of my absolute favorites! Fruity and soothing but subtle, if that makes any sense!
This tea is kinda tropical and fruity. The green is still stronger then i hoped
A yummy, vibrant and balanced flavorful tea. Quite refreshing even warm.
Great tea to mix with white chai... we love it in the morning.
I can't decide between this and bonita for my favorite blend of green rooibos. How this manages to be both citrusy and calming is beyond me, but I adore it.
This was a good tea for something different. Not an all-time favorite.
This is a good non-caffeine alternative to Mango Mate tea. As much as I love Mango Mate. I'll consider buying again next summer.
Totally a favorite. I like to pair this tea with a mango fruit blend.
I love this tea. I usually tend to combine it with my Ceylon Sonata and it is an amazing combination!
This tea is very tropical, which was perfect for the summer months. I personally cold brewed it for a couple days in my fridge to get iced tea when it got really hot this summer (over 100 degrees!). It does best with some sweetener.
My first time ever trying a green rooibos tea and I'm hooked. This tea smells and tastes very interesting. Lightly tropical and refreshing.
