Product Review: Celestial Seasonings Black Cherry Berry Caffeine Free Herbal Tea

This tea was purchased as part of a Celestial Seasonings variety pack, with five different types of fruit teas. I bought it mainly for this flavor — again with the cherry.

I very much regretted my purchase as soon as I tasted the tea. Even with sugar in it, it has a sour flavor which tastes nothing like cherries, nor, for that matter, like berries. It does seem vaguely fruity, in an artificial, almost chemical sort of way, but it is not pleasant to drink.

The only nice things I can say about it are that it was not so bad that I couldn’t force myself to finish the cup, and that when I’d finished drinking it, it stayed down.

One quarter of a star out of five, for not actually being poison.

Avoid this tea at all costs. (Please bear in mind that this tea is not representative of Celestial Seasonings’ products. They have other flavors that I quite enjoy, this particular one just happens to be disgusting.)
