Bear Trap

Oh my goodness I could not find a way to enjoy this for myself without adding buckets of sugar to it. Did not enjoy. I’m sorry, Bear Trap, I tried to love you.

I looooOOOOooooove Bear Trap.
Firstly, due to the cute bear on David’s Tea Website. Won’t lie, that was part of my reason for purchasing.
Secondly, it is so refreshing and crisp. I steep it for ages (or what feels like ages) and add a tiny drop of honey. And I haven’t even tried it iced. Yum. Perfect bedtime tea. I imagine a bear would love this tea as much as I do.

Slightly sweet, with strong blackberry flavours. Definitely a very berry-flavoured tea, but I’m not entirely sure whether I like it enough to buy again (but luckily since I bought 20g, I have a few cups to go!) Further notes to come.

Yum yum yum!! I’ve been drinking WAY too much of this lately. Its so flavourful, and I can actually bear (hehe) the tartness without any sugar. I’ve also been doubling up the tea because I like it strong.. about 6 tsps of tea per 10 oz or so, then I’ve been running it over ice. It’s maybe a little over the top. Nothing bad happens if you oversteep this one, too :-) which is a HUGE plus for me, as I tend to be incredibly careless with steep time.
All I can say is, it’s super satisfying after a long day, with a meal, by itself, or just when thirsty :-)
Just so much bear-y!
All that being said, I haven’t tried it hot. Oops.

This tea is fruity and delicious. I’m not a huge fan of fruit teas, but I’ll drink this again.

Got my new order from David’s today. So excited. I didn’t realize I ordered so many herbals. So this one was the first one I decided to try. And I am not dissapointed. I have left the tea in my steeping mug and it has gone from a really sweet tea to a nice bit of a sour taste as it has continued to steep and cool off some. I can see this one becoming a favourite.
Can’t wait to try it iced.

Got a sample of this tea when I went into the store the other day, and it didn’t blow me away. Seemed to be sour and bitter, perhaps it was oversteeped? Maybe I’ll get a cuppa one day to give it another try when I’m in more control over steep time.

To anybody wanting to try this tea. Make sure you DO NOT over-steep it. Although this tea is amazingly fruitful, if you give it too much time this becomes a sour juice.

Good thought however, this is great in the summer time if you give it 4 minutes in hot water and then throw in ice to cool it. Makes for great fruity chilled drink on a hot day.

Nice, but not my thing. Gave it to my dad, who loves herbals.

Ive tried liking this tea and I just can’t. It tastes almost.. thick. And oily. Ive tried this hot, cold, lukewarm, brewing it 2, 3, 4, or 5 minutes but I cant stand it. I even tried mixing it with green tea and It ruined the whole cup. Im glad I only bought 25g of this.

I got Bear Trap after reading about it online from DAVIDs. I enjoyed it the first few sips but after it seemed to fade. I question on whether adding something would have brought it up but that’s for another try.

I did enjoy the berries but it has a bit of a bitter aftertaste after a while. I’ll definitely keep a small amount in my cupboard for days when I feel like getting a good dose of health.

A little too fruity.

Not a fan, at all. I only tried it hot (not a big fan of iced tea), and I wouldn’t recommend it unless you’re a hardcore fruit tea lover. Wayyy to fruity and almost acidic tasting.

Delicious berry tea!

very tart, needs a lot of sweet to balance it. mixes well with others to make a good ice tea

Too fruity, didnt like this one. Smells amazing though!

As we all know if it’s a fruit tea I’ve got to try it.This tea just smells amazing but yet again there’s that heavy hibiscus smell that I’m not crazy about when it’s steeped.

It’s a very yummy tea,The jam of tea.Rich and syrupy with a sweet and tart berry taste.Really warming and a lovely mid-day treat.

This is my favourite tea from DAVIDsTEA. It is wildly fruity, aromatic and sweet. It is the perfect blend of berries and tea. I have had it both hot and iced, and loved it both ways! I do not add additional sweeteners to this tea, as the fruits are sweet and tart enough, however, I have also had this tea mixed with a splenda and a splash of lemonade and it was delightful! I will definitely be stocking up on this tea.

Not a fan of the lemon verbena base.

I am so sorry to having to give this review. I really don’t like this tea hot at all. I thought it was wayy too tart for my liking. I have a feeling that this tea is best cold and sweetened. Definitely not made to be a hot tea.
