The smell of this made me sick because the lemongrass was so overpowering. That smell made me nervous to try the tea, but I was pleasantly surprised by the flavor – refreshing with a bit of a tropical flavor. I didn’t add any sweetener, and as usual, I drank it cold. Not on the top of my list, but definitely something I would buy again if I didn’t want a fruity tea.

The aroma was absolutely amazing! I’ve been drinking it cold after steeping a pitcher of it and I added just a little sweetener; so delicious! Not overly peppermint-y, not overly chocolatey…just wonderful!

I was excited to buy this to blend with other teas, as I have seen it on suggested blends. I bought it online, so when I opened the packet to get a waft of lemongrass and cardamom, I figured I was going to hate it. I don’t do hot tea, so I brewed it and put right in to the fridge to enjoy the next morning. With sweetener, I hated it- it brought out the cardamom and lemongrass so much that I could barely swallow it without gagging. But cold, with no sweetener…it’s somewhat decent. It’s a light refreshing tea with a taste of lemongrass that doesn’t hit you until the very end.

I was super excited to try this blend only to find that the Apple Lemon Pomegranate kind of ruined the experience. I added some of the rock sugar, which definitely made me dislike the tea when it was cold. I think that without sweetener, it would be a refreshing blend…but still not one of my favorites.

I’m not much of a creamy/nutty tea fan, as I usually prefer fruitier teas, but this was absolutely delicious! I put a little sweetener in and enjoyed it luke warm; I am excited to try it as a cold tea. It tastes a bit like mulling spice with a hint of coconut – sooooo delicious! Very good as cold tea with no sweetener!

I wasn’t a huge fan of the pomegranate cranberry crush on its own, but mixed with the fruta bomba it was great! Definitely a great iced tea with a little sweetener added to it. Followed the directions on the label for both and then combined them.

I got very little hint of pomegranate; after steeping this for 4.5 minutes I tasted much more raspberry than anything. I’m beginning to think of what I can blend this with, because this tea is not cutting it for me in its plain form..

I had such high hopes for this tea, because I love pineapple, but it ended up a bit weak. I suppose next time I could try to steep a bit more than the recommended amount. Additionally, this is a good blending tea…
