Love this tea a pantry staple for sure. Afternoon delight
I thought this was a fun tea! It felt like a standard berry tea made by Adagio, not spectacular, but still far better than anything found at the grocery store
I like this tea but wasn't one of my favorites. Still a good cup of tea, I'll be trying it as ice tea next time.
This tea is outstanding hot or cold and is excellent for the immune system!
Good. Subtlr flavor. Going to try it as an iced tea
I was a little nervous about this tea because I thought it would be overwhelming, but it is a really nice flavor, that definitely makes me think of wine. The flavor isn't overly subtle, and it's really soothing to the throat when made hot. I'll be keeping this flavor on hand for sure, especially if I'm craving wine before noon!
I expected a sweet kick to it after the first sip but it was a bit anticlimactic. But it still had a very smooth ad rich flavor
Not a fan. The flavor was bitter and tangy, but didn t taste like elderberry at all. It was like fermented sour tea.
This is pretty decent herbal blend hibiscus tea. Was looking for a hibiscus blend to supplement the pink lemonade hibiscus blend at capital teas. While that is still my favorite, this comes pretty close. And this is way better than the adagio blood orange blend.
Another of the herbals I like to use for iced tea. I make a different flavor every day. My list keeps growing!
Interesting, fun, keeps me out of the pantry at night when I'm snacky! I sip it out of a wine glass when around friends and they have no idea its tea! Saves me tons of calories! Will be ordering again!
Love the taste! I do a tea party with my 2 little girls and they liked it too!
I really was hopeful but sadly I was let down. After the amazing berry cream compote I thought this would be just as good but it falls short. The elderberry isn’t well pounced and there is an odd taste underneath.
Nice flavor and a great herbal tea. I recommend blending it with a plain white tea.
This tea is remarkably different than what I expected. I don't drink wine, but I do love this
Good tea - just not a fav for me. Wasn't sure what I was expecting but I have also never drunk Elderberry Wine so it could be spot on and I wouldn't know. Tried it hot and tried it iced. Not a bad tea, just not a 'go to' for me
Pretty good! The flavor is pretty subtle, so I generally use at least 2 tsp.
Overall, this is a decent tea. Not a much wine flavor as I was anticipating. I haven't had elderberry before, so that might be the flavor I can't pin point. I do get a good bit of lemongrass when it's hotter. As it cools, it the berry flavor starts to become more prominant. I probably wouldn't buy this again but I will drink what I have on hand.
I originally brewed for 5 minutes as recommended. Found a bit weak. 8 minutes was better. Might even creep up to 10 minutes.
I’m starting to realizes even cold I’m not much of a fruit tea drinker.
This was a gift for my good friends birthday and she loves it!
Another personal choice of not liking that fruity aftertaste.
Incredibly flavorful. Tastes like hot 'Juicey Juice'. It has a very deeply fruity flavor with just enough astringency to be tea instead of juice.
I like the tartness of this tea! Partner wishes it were more sweet.
it tastes like elderberry tea, i drink it taste good
this is so good! i wish it was avail year round!!!
This is a mild fruity tea. It smells wonderful and tastes good!
After a steeping, it smelled like Berry Crème Compote. It definitely did not taste like it. I added honey to mine. I don't hate it, but I'm not impressed with it either. UPDATE: I like to re-steep my tea leaves. The re-steep produced a brown color rather than the gorgeous red. It's better to steep only once.
Really tart which I was expecting but it may not be everyone's thing. Just okay.
The scent is not as intense as I expected, but I like the color and flavor.
It’s... fine. I thought I would like this way more than I do. It tastes very herbaceous to me which I don’t love. It is wine-y but it tastes like oregano or something to me. I have a feeling this one will sit in my pantry for a while before I work through it, and I won’t be buying again. But it will get used up.
I make a delicious ice tea with this adding fruit and ice.
It's not a bad tea at all, but it wasn't quite as strong as I was hoping from the smell of it. Didn't get the wine flavour other reviews mention, but it was still a tasty brew.
I made this tea as an iced tea. I brewed 5 tsp in about 2 cups of water for 10 minutes and then filled the rest of the pitcher with cold water, and poured it over ice. I added a tablespoon of honey to sweeten. It was a nice, light fruity flavor that was a nice break from just cold water. I will have to try it hot to decide whether i will buy it again.
The tea is a bit too tart and overall not my favorite. I wouldn't purchase again.
Mild & smooth for a fruity tea, good when i want mellow fruity
I found this tea to be too overly sweet for me - there wasn't a lot of nuance to the flavor.
Very hibiscus-y, so some of the subtler flavors get lost.
Amazing tea, really enjoyed this unique taste. Love these options
This tea tastes strangely of tomato, and that's the primary note I get from it. I need to drink it a few more times to get a really good idea of it, but it's almost impossible to taste anything other than tomato.
Still, the taste is not bad, if you enjoy tomato soup.
Wow, this was a sucker punch of awesome! I personally love a hot mulled wine, and I was very surprised how many of those notes this tea was able to hit. Instant favorite, right out of the gate. Sweet and full of a pleasant tangy pucker.
I combine this bold, berry-filled blend with a the green rooibos blueberry - delicious! Adds a cabernet-type richness to the tea.
It tastes like very old lemongrass. There was almost no discernible fruit flavor.
Very underwhelming. I wanted to like this very much and it's one of the only Adagio teas that I thought I would like and didn't. This tea isn't bad, I just didn't get much flavor from it. I experimented with more tea, more steeping time, and then finally iced. Not loving it personally.
I tried this as a medicinal tea- the Elderberry for antiviral activity and the Echinacea for the Immunity boosting properties-- wasn't prepared for the wonderful taste! I've brewed this as a hot and cold brew beverage- both are very good but I prefer the cold brew- has helped my seasonal allergies this year. Thank You.
I didn't find anything particularly special about this tea. It's not bad, it's just nothing special. I would have expected a stronger flavor profile.
This one exceeded my expectations. It was very tasty served over ice.
The berry flavor is a little too strong and tart.
Wow.. potent.. it's got a strong berry/bitter but good taste.
Not as sweet as expected, better hot than over ice
