This years teaster cup
A smoky note penetrates
The peeps are on fire
I have been looking forward to trying this tea, and peeking in today's CT packet was an Easter morning delight, visually and aromatically, with it's cute sprinkles and very spring-like ingredients. Steeping to recommended times resulted in a beautiful golden tea with a creamy taste and a hint of apricot, apple, and vanilla.
I didn't think I liked green rooibos but with the flavoring this is not bad. I could mostly taste the vanilla creme with a hint of apple. I was worried that it would be too sweet but it wasn't. This will make a relaxing evening brew.
I must preface my review because it’s not the herbal blend, it’s me. Rooibos is not my favorite, with green being a better option for my taste buds than red. Unfortunately, this sweet, green rooibos isn’t my cup of tea. I have a huge bag of this from last year’s promo and I never reach for it. The sprinkles are festive, and cute. This herbal would be perfect for someone who enjoys sweeter rooibos blends. I’m going to try it cold brewed! Maybe that will be nice. Happy and Blessed Easter! Happy and Glorious Spring! Sip, sip away!
Such a fun and adorable tea! I loved finding all the little sprinkles in my CommuniTea sample. The flavor is wonderful as well, light apricot and cream play nicely with rooibos, and a little added sugar made this a fun morning treat.
I'm such a sucker for anything rooibos and this tea is no exception. I like the sprinkles that provide some sweetness and make the tea look fun too! 💐
All of the ingredients were in my CommuniTEA packet. It really is a cute mixture in the steeper with all of the special sprinkles. I was underwhelmed by the taste though. To me, it smelled great, but the flavor was just meh and bland. I guess this isn't a blend for me. 😞
I have been sipping on teaster marshmallow every evening since it arrived in my order. It is an EGG-cellent festive decaf night brew. I have become a fan of green rooibos blends! Teaster M. Is sweet on its own but I do prefer a little dash of added sugar to bring forward the fruity apricot flavor. I do not taste any marshmallow. The festive candy sprinkle shapes are a sweet addition to this festive blend.
Pleasant, light, and fun. The carrot shaped sprinkles made me smile.
I have to be in the mood to drink this tea, but the flavor is so good, it's naturally sweet and is a great treat, I like it hot and is really great coldbrewed as well! Happy Easter 🐣 💓
This is a fun tea for egg hunting season and a must if you have kiddos coming over for Easter. I like this tea cold or at room temp best and with a little bit of rooibos hunny. The taste is similar to a whipped egg filling (minus the chocolate). If you do serve warm some whipped cream and extra Easter sprinkles or pink sugar is a must at our house.
Surprisingly good for rooibos. It’s just sweet enough and it looks festively Easter.
It did kind of make me think of toasted marshmallows. I liked it.
Such a cute tea. I have a large sweet tooth so this was a perfect remedy for that when I wanted a sweet treat
This is an ideal tea for bedtime when you don't want the harshness of caffeine. It is mild yet makes you really feel like you're eating marshmallows or those "bunnies and chicks" Easter candies (my personal favorite). It tastes so authentic that it really doesn't need any sweetener.
This is a lovely, mellow tea. The green rooibos is milder than red rooibos, so it doesn't conflict with the other gentle flavors. There's also a very nice, subtle sweetness, likely from the sprinkles. This would also be really delicious iced. I liked this one a lot.
This was a creamy, vanilla flavor with an over the top sweetness, with nothing to balance it out. It wasn't bad, just not something I would want to drink a lot of. I think I would have liked it a little better if it had a little bit of tartness to cut all of that sweetness. (reviewed through CommuniTEA; 5 min @ 212F)
I am not a Rooibos fan so I was concerned if I would like this. I was pleasantly surprised. I added sugar and found it had a lucky charm marshmallow flavor, which I enjoyed.
Nice well rounded flavor! The rooibos didnt overpower the other flavors like it normally does!
The sprinkles in this tea lend a springtime vibe, and add a subtle sweetness. While I didn't taste marshmallow, I did enjoy the fruity flavor of this tea.
When you open the package, you are greeted by a comforting sweet fruity smell and adorable bright little sprinkles.
The first brew was delicious, it was sweet, smooth, and what I would call earthy like rooibos tends to be. The second was more of the tea flavors than sweet, but was still there. The third the sweetness was pretty much completely gone and the overall flavor was much softer and subtler.
All of the brews were fantastic just a little different each time. The rooibos flavor was the flavor that tied all the cups together and was a good cozy and comforting tea.
This was a good tea. I would suggest adding an extra teaspoon for steeping. This tea may be one that would be good cold brewed. I will try that next. I have had this tea three times in the last couple days trying to perfect the amount of tea to water to get the strongest taste possible. It was hard for me to taste with ice. The first time the vanilla flavor came through, but I tasted my ice more than the tea. The second time I steeped 2 teaspoons to 8 oz and I wasn't going to add ice. I let it cool on the counter and there was more flavor in this cooled version. Today I tried again and this time I added sugar, let cool and then poured over ice. This was the best way so far. The green rooibos is very light and I did taste a vanilla like flavoring. It was refreshing and in such a cute bag. I would order this to have on hand for Easter/Spring. I'm so glad to have two bags now that will last awhile. The next time I try this I am going to do a cold brew, add extra tea, light blue agave, and no ice. Overall it is a good light tea that is more flavorful cold. My kids loved this one so I'm giving it 5 stars!
I was expecting to hate this but it literally tastes like Lucky Charms. I did add a little sugar which may have been too much because i genuinely can't taste the tea at all, only the marshmallow cereal flavor.
Well, what you know? A rooibos that doesn't have that medicine-y ickiness!
This was a very good light tea and actually had marshmallows / sprinkles in the packet!
I'm not really getting any flavors besides herbal green rooibos and a slightly unpleasant, cloying vanilla-ish aftertaste. I usually like flavored teas and red rooibos, so I'm not sure what happened with this one!
I understand now why so many rave about this tea. What a wonderfully pleasant blend! The first steep had a springy sweetness, at once fruity and smooth. I can't say that it tasted like marshmallow, but it was definitely sweet. The second steep had less sweetness and was more distinctly fruity with apple and apricot flavors coming forward. The green rooibos provides a good base as it's more subtle than its red rooibos relative as it allows the flavors to shine more.
Love the fun, festive sprinkles! The tea is very mellow. I added a little sugar to bring out more flavor.
So happy I finally got to try this tea. Yeah Communitea! Nice light, sweet, enjoyable tea. Pretty to look at and nice to smell.
A very smooth tea with a rich caramel colour that matches the taste.
I don't know if anyone has ever tried the boiling a condensed milk can into Caramel trick but the flavour is very reminiscent of that.
A wonderful flavour for the holiday and I highly recommend.
I really expected to like this one—I really did! But with ever sip I was met with mediocrity The green rooibos is the main flavor, sure, but it's all I can taste besides the sprinkles. I get the feeling that the sprinkles obscure the more subtle flavors and it's really affecting my enjoyment of this blend.
I was very happy to see the green rooibos in this tea vs the red rooibos. I brewed this up at 200 degrees and let it steep for almost 5 minutes so my sprinkles could dissolve.
This tea is a very nice, light, easy drinking cup. I tasted mild fruitiness, apricot/ apple. There was also a creaminess to it which made it kind of desert like. Since I already have 2 other green rooibos teas that I prefer a little more than this one it will not have a permanent place in my collection, but this tea should most certainly be tried as it has wonderful drinkability.
Surprisingly marshmallowy! Sweet and subtle flavors with no hints of tinny roobios and a fruity edge. The smell is really intriguing as you sip.
A green tea. Oh my, sprinkles, vanilla, marshmallows and fruity flavors all waiting to be found, as I sipped my Easter cup. Today’s communiTea, Teaster marshmallow was a fun, egg-tremely smooth Easter bunny blend. A very smooth, creamy, forward vanilla flavoring with hints of fruit lingering perfectly in the background. I did re-read it’s ingredients twice tho, because it sure tasted like there were yummy peep marshmallows melting in my cup. No sweetener needed, just perfect alone.🐰🐰
Flavor is very mild and it's not as sweet or 'creamy' as you would expect from a tea with marshmallow in the name.
Sweet, faintly fruity, pretty to look at. Would probably be a hit with kids. I received a complimentary bag with an order in 2020 and easily finished it by hot brewing then drinking iced, but I wouldn’t go out of my way for it as I don’t sweeten my tea and this is already sweeter than I prefer.
This tea had a really sweet, marshmallowy smell to it when brewed, but I found the taste to be a little too light for me. I added a slight but of sugar to try to bring out the favors more, but I still wasn't wowed. It wasn't bad, just a bit unmemorable.
A nice tea. Had only a light rooibos-woody flavor. This green-rooibos would be a good introduction for people who think red rooibos is too strong. But other then that the flavor I tasted was a sweet vanilla (at least it didn't have an artificial marshmallow flavor). & the sprinkles were fun 😄
Steeped 212F 10min
Review based on CommuniTEA packet: This tea had a general sort of sweet taste that's difficult for me to really pin down - but I suppose the 'marshmallow' in its name is a fair way to describe it. I wouldn't have guessed there was apricot in this - and perhaps apricot was missing from my packet. All in all, the flavor was okay.
I have the 3oz packet of this on the way with an order that recently shipped, so I'm curious to give it another try with a larger, more-representative amount of the tea. My experience with the Irish Stout last month was that the 3oz bag and my CommuniTEA packet tasted a little different despite being the same blend, so that may be the case with teaster marshmallow as well.
This is the first rooibos tea I enjoyed and didn’t dump out! It is a great afternoon or evening tea that I enjoyed hot. The flavors were well balanced and complimented each other. I don’t like marshmallows so I was worried. However the vanilla flavoring and the sweetness of the tea gave a marshmallow vibe without being too sweet or strong, which I enjoyed.
This is a tough one to review because I'm limited to the ingredients that came in my communitea packet and I don't think it was a solid sample. I only had one marshmallow, one apple piece, and most of my roobois was dust, so I think I missed out on some flavor. The tea smelled delicious, but once brewed was quite weak even though, after reading reviews, I only used a small amount of water. I think this tea has a lot of potential and I wish I had a larger, more complete sample because I think I'd really like it.
The vanilla creme comes out strong, giving this tea a very soft, mallowy mouthfeel. Without sugar the flavor was a bit flat, I kept looking for something more in it and I couldn't taste the apricot that many other reviewers noted. I think because I am so used to having vanilla flavors in a sweetened form, having that much vanilla creme without a lot of sweetness seemed odd. With sugar (I used a substantial amount) the flavor really does remind you of a marshmallow! It's pretty neat how these few ingredients in the tea can make it taste just like another food.
I got a sample packet of this with the CommuniTEA and I also was able to snag a bag through the Easter egg hunt. It sounds amazing, but unfortunately it's just watery and tasteless to me. I tried both the packet and the bag, but they both have almost no flavor. And I used quite a lot of the mix, so I don't think it was that I used too much water or anything. Kind of disappointing! :(
Today’s tea was ok. Not my favorite but not bad. Not much flavor
Very smooth green rooibos tea. I did pick the sprinkles out before brewing, so may have missed the sweetness others have tasted. I really like the base herb though. Tasted a little apricot and a hint of vanilla. Nice bedtime tea.
I’ve been anticipating this tea for weeks now. Other members of the communiTEA have been hyping it up and I was really worried it couldn’t live up to it...but it did!! I really love that it’s a decaf tea, because it’s a perfect bedtime sip. It will definitely be finding it’s way into my cart...
It's good tasting. The tea leaves were cute to look at. This could encourage children to try the tea, but I don't get much of a marshmallow flavor which is fine. I don't like peeps. Drinking it straight is the best way to go if you are looking to cut sugar from your diet. Just don't add.
Great flavor of green rooibos. i honesly couldn't detect any apricot or apple flavors but maybe thats because I have just started drinking teas regularly and my pallet is not as refined ha The tea definitely has a sweetness from the marshmallows. Depending on your preference of sweetness this might be enough for you or you might need more. For me i always put honey in mine cause sugar gives it a sweet taste that I dont prefer in tea. so this tasted kinda like that. But the marshmallows added a cuteness to the tea so ill allow it:)
On opening the CommuniTEA packet I had a nice vanilla-apricot aroma. The Easter shapes were super cute and set the mood! I steeped at 212 F for 5 min and had a sweet cuppa tea. I am excited for my full bag to arrive!
I have to start with the fact that I'm not a red rooibos fan so I'm glad this has green, which I can handle. This is a fun, one and done type tea for me. I found it mildly sweet and woodsy. No additions are needed. Nice, no caffeine sweet treat.
Marshmallowy, fruity tea! The green roobios provides a nice base. The marshmallow is for sure the prominent flavor, and while it’s not one I enjoy often, it’s a nice treat here and there. Definitely a fun Easter tea!
