Comments about Teavana Sour Cherry Serenade Black Tea<br />:

I tried this tea as an alternative to the disappointingly-discontinued cranberry black tea, and I am so happy with the recommendation! This tea is wonderful! I love the sweet and sour from the cherries and lemons, and it gives a lot of flavor dimension. I make it kinda strong: 2 teaspoons of tea + 1 tsp cane sugar to my 16oz Perfect Tea Maker.

Comments about Teavana Sour Cherry Serenade Black Tea<br />:

This has been my favorite tea over ice for the summer. But it's a great hot tea too. My family adds sugar and say it's a yummy sweet and sour fruity tea. I don't think it even needs sugar. This is my favorite Teavana selection. It's a beautiful black tea.

Comments about Teavana Sour Cherry Serenade Black Tea<br />:

I love this tea, and the only thing that I could possibly say against it is that it tends to get bitter if you steep it too long.

Comments about Teavana Sour Cherry Serenade Black Tea<br />:

I've recently purchased a lot of teas and I'm impressed with this one in particular. It may be a little sour, but I don't mind it. It's light and fresh and once I add some sugar to this I'm sure it'll taste like cherry pie. I'm really looking forward to that.

Comments about Teavana Sour Cherry Serenade Black Tea<br />:

I love the sour cherry flavor, but yes, I do add a packet of Sweet N Low. I always drank tea as weak as possible until I discovered Teavana and this particular tea. Now, I steep it for 4-5 minutes and love it. In fact, after tasting it I was going out of town and I bought 2 pounds to take with me. A lot of tea, but we all love it and didn't want to be without it.

Comments about Teavana Sour Cherry Serenade Black Tea<br />:

I think this product is worth buying to mix with black tea. You can tell that it's a high quality tea from just opening the bag- the ingredients are beautiful to look at and smell. However, for me, it just didn't have enough tea taste- it tasted more like an herbal tea, something I didn't expect since it contains both green and black tea. I'm going to try mixing it with more black tea, as another reviewer recommended.

I just received this tea today. Once I opened the bag I was in love. The smell is very pleasing, if you love cherries you will love this. The flavor is a little mild but you still receive the cherry flavor you expect.

Comments about Teavana Sour Cherry Serenade Black Tea<br />:

My, oh, my! This was the first tea I tasted with Teavana and I must say, it has changed my perception and taste for tea forever. Sour Cherry Serenade has such a beautiful light red color, FRESH cherry scent and crisp/clean taste that it truly defies what some people may have previously thought about tea! I have always used tea bags in the past but I will never go back! I gave this particular tea to my parents and they were amazed! If you like a sweet and high quality fruit flavor, then this tea will knock you off your socks!

Comments about Teavana Sour Cherry Serenade Black Tea<br />:

If the cherry is too much for your palette, try mixing a little in with a regular black such as english breakfast. My favorite mix is to use english breakfast with a little sweet cranberry black, it makes a great refreshing tea.

Comments about Teavana Sour Cherry Serenade Black Tea<br />:

I really like sour cherry juice, so I did like this tea and found it very good hot. It would probably be a great summer iced tea. If you associate cherry flavor with cough drops, you might not go for it. Sometimes the cherry was a little strong, but I still liked it a lot.

My husband and I are long-time Teavana fans and we couldn't get enough of this tea. Brews bright and fruity, no need to add any sugar. Able to re-brew the tea with continued good flavor. Great anytime tea, and can even stand in as a dessert.

Comments about Teavana Sour Cherry Serenade Black Tea<br />:

I got this one because I like cherry. I had a couple cups of it and had a thought that it would taste great with cinnamon. I mixed it with the White Ayurvedic Chai Tea. Oh my gosh... it was wonderful. I did about 1 1/2 scoops of the Cherry to 1 scoop of the Chai for a 16oz cup. I would highly recommend it!

I really love this tea. I am a cherry-lover anyway, but so many teas have an imitation cherry taste. This is a wonderful REAL cherry flavor that comes from the full cherries in the tea. Wonderful. Good anytime of the day.

Comments about Teavana Sour Cherry Serenade Black Tea<br />:

This tea is one of the only black tea I will drink. I basically a green tea drinker. I find black teas too strong and malty for me.
But I thought I would this a try, and to my surprise I liked it. The tea has a fruity taste makes a great ice tea.

I generally don't prefer flavored black teas but this tea is one of my exceptions. Its tart, sweet, and uniquely flavorful. Its a particularly lovely tea on a cold winter night. I'll be giving this tea as a gift to friends this holiday season.

Comments about Teavana Sour Cherry Serenade Black Tea<br />:

This one I was really looking forward to, but was disappointed. I love the other Cherry teas from Teavana, the Snow Geisha is my very favorite tea, but this is too sour. I know, I should have known from the name, but thought I'd try it out. I was excited because I am really appreciating more black teas and wanted to add to my vast Teavana collection, but I traded this one with a coworker for Fruit Bomba Green. We were both happy however, he loves the Sour Cherry!
