I honestly didnt like this tea at all! It honestly tasted perfumey... I tried drinking it multiple times because I honestly hate wasting any tea...but after the 3rd time I couldnt even drink it so I just tossed it all out
The bright flavors of strawberry mingle with the roundness of basil make a perfect combo brewed both hot or iced.

Tastes more like basil than strawberry, rather nice overall
I think there is a good blend of flavors in this tea. I added a bit a sugar to bring out the strawberry.
Delicious and light, and the strawberry is very pronounced, as I'd hoped it would be! I ordered and drank this in the winter, though it would be an amazing iced summertime tea as well.
This was my first shot at a white tea, so I won't go too harshly but overall it does have an extremely mild flavor, the smell when you open the bag and while the tea is steeping is WONDERFUL though!
I won't be buying it again but I bet it's lovely if you're into white tea!
What a great flavor. It's delicious hot or cold. Very refreshing- the combination of strawberry and basil is perfect combo.
This is a mild fruity tea but I wouldn’t say it tastes especially like strawberry and I don’t taste any basil at all.
I think I need to try this iced, but my first taste was hot, and it was light and tasty, with a nice blend of strawberry and basil that work well together. It was pretty good hot, but I think it might be even better iced!
Not one of my traditional favorites but good for an after dinner tea.
Light and quite good. Enjoyed this very much. Definitely can taste the basil.
This would be a wonderful tea for spring or summertime. I enjoyed it hot, but it was much better cold, as a refreshing iced tea.
I loved this tea more hot with no sugar. than I did iced. Iced it would need a touch of sugar so keep that in mind when steeping how you want the result. The basil is a very nice savory touch.
This is a very light tea with a wonderful aroma of strawberries.
My husband loves it. We ordered it again in larger quality. Great combination of flavors.
Did not like the taste at all. Didn't taste the strawberry and the basil must not have been regular basil.
Sweet meets savory in this balanced blend with little caffeine. Try it iced!
delightful smell and very subtle tasting tea. This would be amazing as an iced tea.
This one wasn't my cup of tea. Get it? It's not really a bad one, just a bit odd for my liking. Maybe better iced, will need to try it again with some honey over some ice.
This white tea is actually what you would expect from the name. The strawberry is light but still very much there and the basil balances out the white tea and strawberry flavors. It's pretty good and I really enjoy it. This tea doesn't get bitter either.
It's ok. The berry is slightly tart, almost like a hibiscus tea, but I don't really like that flavor. It's a little bland for my tastes.
Love this one iced! Not to sweet and super light tasting.
This one smells fantastic, and reminds me of red gummy bears, bit brewing up a cup it s really very weak. I used half of my sample pack and can barely taste the tea. I m giving it 3 stars because I think it has potential, you just have to use a lot of it.
I was drawn in by the unorthodox flavor of basil and I was not disappointed. Not quite sweet but not quite savory. I enjoy is at the very least.
Not really my cup of tea (fnar fnar), though I imagine it would be nicer as an iced tea. The strawberry is strong in this one, though I don't taste much basil.
White Strawberry is my favorite white tea at Adagio and this blend with basil does not disappoint! A great addition to an already great flavor. I get an aftertaste that reminds me of strawberry jam.
This tea was delicious. It seems and odd combination of flavors; but, they work well together. Whether you are drinking this cold or hot, it tastes great.
The strawberry flavor is good. It could be bit stronger. The basil flavor just compliments the strawberry. You can't really taste basil outright in the tea.
Listen, I know you re thinking, what the heck? Basil? With strawberry?
But it works.
One of my favorite ciders is lemon basil.
LOVE this one iced. Got a sample and knew immediately that I would be ordering a full sized package once I was through. Personally, I don't love it hot but the friends I have shared it with all enjoyed it that way. The flavors are subtle and not sickly sweet or cloying. Nice and light- I drink this in the afternoon at work when I want to stay hydrated but I want something 'fancier' than water.
I adored this tea. I'm really getting behind the herbal and fruity pairings Adagio has been doing. I especially liked it iced. I never buy giant bags of tea, but for this one I did.
This tea would make an excellent iced tea. It's tangy and has an herby flavor to it. The white tea is pleasing with these flavors!
Excellent as an iced tea. It was not as satisfying hot.
Love this tea. Just buy it! You will no be disappointed.
I do like this one - it's subtle with just a hint of sweetness. I would not recommend making it iced - the flavors didn't transfer over that well which I found surprising!
Very balanced tea that is easy to drink. Great when you want something a bit different.
The aroma is amazing and the strawberry really stands our. When brewed the aroma lingers for a long time and the strawberry taste comes through. It is good hot or cold and pairs well with the lemon meringue tea.
this was too interesting a blend to not try for myself, after receiving two requests or it No caffine, so that is a plus
so good. i give this to people when they want tea but dont know what they want and it never ceases to please. everyone loves this. so do i. it smells so good. and tastes even better.
Excellent, sure in summer can be a nice iced tea, I will take it warm also in winter
I figured the basil would be interesting at least, but it cuts the sort of syrupy sweetness of the strawberry in a very pleasant way.
I wasn t so sure about basil in tea but this was a pleasant surprise!
Really great, bursting with flavor - the basil really sings through.
Delicious and tastes exactly as it smells! Pretty rare it seems to find a tea that tastes like is smells.
This is so delicious! The strawberry and basil can just be tasted, and the tea has a delicate aroma that is refreshing and satisfying. Yum!
The White Strawberry is the best strawberry tea I've ever had, but the White Strawberry Basil is a decent alternative to switch things up.
Excellent tea! The basil and strawberry go extremely well together
Reminds me of cough syrup. The first steep is a bright pink and nice to look at, but the taste is herbaceous, menthol, and fruity. The combination tastes exactly like Robitussin to me.
Super refreshing tea!! This would make a great base for a strawberry basil mojito
I tasted the strawberry and the basil but it's very mild.
I am thoroughly shocked by this tea! Normally I despise teas that have fruit flavors but in this case it worked out beautifully. The lightness in the white tea provides a nice stage for the strawberry and the basil to come through in a wonderful, rejuvenating taste!
