Berry Kiwi Colada

I really enjoyed this tea when I tasted it in the store, it was very fruity and had a lot of flavor. I bought 4 oz. of it because its a heavy tea and 2 doesn’t really get you much. Anyway when I brewed it at home I noticed a slight veggie smell that came with it, and as the tea cooled and so did the leaves the smell died down too. As I was looking through the tea to eat the little fruit bits like the tea lady told me too, I found the source of the veggie smell! There are carrots in this tea! Impostor! This is supposed to be a berry kiwi tea, not fruits and carrots. Jeez. When I drink this hot I really do taste the carrots, but when it’s cold it tastes pretty decent. Not my favorite not bad either.

This tea smells like it should taste like pineapple and kiwi, light, fruity and summery. That’s what I thought when I brought it home- but upon trying it, it tastes very tart and there are only hints of the subtle undertones that the scent led me to believe would be there. It’s an okay tea, but I won’t be buying any more of it, and I’m disappointed.

While living on an island without a Teavana present, this tea looked enjoyable on the website so I decided to risk it and make an order.
I was not disappointed in the least.
While I personally find the tea when served hot to be a tad overwhelmingly sour, when iced with agave I find this tea to be reminiscent of the laffy taffy rainbow belts, and is up in the ranks of legendary iced teas in my cupboard.

I did try this tea hot before, and didn’t care for it. Today I tried it iced, and while I really want to like it, I just don’t :(
It smells sweet, fruity, and tropical like a certain candy. The taste is…. I’m not really sure what to say lol. Fruity, and I like fruity tea! This one though, hmm. I tried it hot (with and without sugar) iced (with and without sugar) and I just can’t seem to enjoy it. Bummer, because it really does smell great.

Another great smelling Teavana tea. Luckily, it’s also a tasty tea! Nice crisp fruit flavor. When I read about some people eating the little bits after brewing and I thought they were nuts. However, I couldn’t help but nibble and oh, my goodness, it’s fantastic. The surprise ingredient is… wait for it…. carrot slices! You don’t really taste them but it is a surprise to see them in your tea. The tea is good hot and iced with a little rock sugar.

This smelled amazing, as tea always does in the store, and it was new so of course I was curious.

I love pina coladas, so I thought I would love this tea. I was wrong. The heat brings out the taste of coconut which I found to be to insulting on my senses. I thought it might taste better cold, and it was a little better. The coconut was more in the background and the fruit came out.

I don’t think I like coconut teas.
