True Blueberry

This tastes… sweet and a little fruity to me. I can taste the blueberry, but especially as a fan of such things as blueberry soup, I can’t say that this is the best way to have my blueberry fix. It’s just a little too sweet and not blueberry-y enough.

This tea smells exactly like my favorite childhood cereal- Blueberry Morning by Post. So that definitely helps it.

Otherwise, I really do like the tea! In my opinion it definitely needs to be served quite hot or ice cold- it really can get pretty terrible in the middle of those temperatures- sort of dries out your throat and leaves a bad aftertaste.
I’d also recommend a short brew time.

Definitely full on blueberry but you can also pick up the floral notes.

I really loved this one. It smells absolutely lovely, like a warm blueberry cobbler. It tastes very much like you imagive a blueberry tea would, with a good balance of tartness and sweetness.

I was very excited to try this one. It was a gift, and usually I’m not very in to herbal teas. But this one was very good. There was a strong essence of fresh blueberries upon opening the box. A tiny bit of tartness, and a little sweetness make this cup very balanced. This is the best herbal tea I have had yet.

My friend Caitlin, my roommate Laura, and I had a makeshift tea party at dinner tonight. Caitlin and I had this tea. We had it hot and plain.

It was pretty good. It was a little sweeter than I am used to with just a hint of tart punch at the back of your throat. I normally don’t really like blueberries, but this was pretty good. I have a hunch that it would make an awesome summer iced tea.

I don’t know how I feel about this. It’s almost like drinking hot juice, the kind of taste that you have to be in the right mood for. The lack of caffeine certainly helps make that decision. ;-)

I think this makes a good ice tea (for being a bagged tea), in fact one time I put my mug on the floor by my chair and when I looked down my puppy was taking a few licks! She NEVER drinks from anything except her waterbowl, so she must of thought it was good as well =)

This one was purchased over the holidays for a mar"tea"ni recipe. For the mixologists among us, it makes an interesting “tasty beverage,” and maintains a fun blue-ish color when combined with vodka.

The tea itself is a bit astringent and my preference is to take it with sugar (or, the aforementioned vodka, when appropriate.) It might be a good candidate for iced tea, too.

I bought some Adagio’s Berry Blast for a large tea party this past weekend. Although I liked the flavor, I was afraid that others would find it too tart. I decided to blend it with Celestial Seasoning’s True Blue Berry & Tazo’s Wild Sweet Orange to soften the blow! It turned out so amazing! But I also love this tea all by itself, it’s my favorite right-off-the-grocery-store-shelf- fruit tea! M-m-m-m, Blueberry.

I’m rather fond of the tart teas, so I like to steep this one quite strong to get that slight hint of tart to it. I really love this tea.
