Sweet Fruit Garden

Name:  Sweet Fruit Garden


Brand:  Teavana


Primary Type:  Herbal


Dry Scent:  There is a strong, sharp-sweet punch of berries at first sniff, rounded out by the juicy sweetness of pineapple and the citrus tang of hibiscus.  This smells like the best sort of tropical juice blend, and entirely mouthwatering.


Steeping Time: 6-7 min


Steeped Flavour:  Instantly sweet and tart at once, flooding the tongue with the flavour of just-underripe raspberries.  There's quite a lot of hibiscus flavour in this, but in this case it plays nicely with the other fruity flavours, and the lingering aftertaste here is one of sweet cherries and something that reminds me of eating ripe plums straight from the tree.


Food/Drink Pairings:  This is definitely one that does well being iced and taken on a picnic.  It's more of a "summer" tea and would go well with most summery foods.  As far as mixing with booze, any fruity vodkas, rums or schnapps would probably be very tasty indeed with this.


Rating out of Six Tails:
