I really like this tea. Very fruity and light. Great to drink all day! I mixed in a touch of the Sakura Allure and it complimented it well. I dont really care for the Sakura Allure by itself but added a nice flavor to the Weight to go

The name makes me laugh with that terrible pun, but actually I quite like it.

Has a nice subtle fruit note and makes a great iced tea.

Delicious tea, BUT for the so claimed benefits, I can´t see no weigh loss :-(
However this particular one, is really lovely…. I drink it in the mornings during work hours and it is very refreshing, love that is very minty, and fresh, very fruity as well.
I dont like oolong taste a lot, and in this particular one I dont taste it wich is good for me!
needs to be steeped for 4 to 5 min even if teavana recommend 3 otherwise it is weak… if you leve it longer it won´t get bitter, it would be perfect if it really made you loose weight……

This is seriously good with a subtle background flavor that goes hmmm…

I love this tea- a mild mint flavor (that is not as powerful as typical peppermint black tea) w/subtle background of strawberries to add some sweetness….

I love this tea! I had been experimenting with making iced teas and my wife and I stumbled into TeaVana shop at our mall. I went only to get sugar and like always we left with a sample of this stuff. I took a chance and brewed the iced tea like Zack@adagio.com suggested and I have found my new go to tea when I want iced tea.

Picked this up today with a few other items. Brewed it as iced tea and sweetened with one packet of stevia. Really enjoyed the strawberry mint iced tea flavor. I’ll make again and try hot next time. :)

Eh. It’s interesting to see everyone else’s take on this blend. I don’t especially care for fruity teas, and this is no exception. It’s not bad but I only bought this because of the black tea element and those flavors are totally absent in the flavor profile of the resultant beverage. I don’t taste any mint either, just a mild fruitiness. It’s not unpleasant, it’s just not what I was hoping for. I’m going to have to try it iced, because I think that would be very refreshing, but this isn’t at all what I expected.

I’m not usually a fan of berry flavoured teas, however, the mixture of strawberry, apple and spearmint wasn’t that bad. I prefer this tea iced instead of hot though.

I enjoyed this tea, i usually avoid tea with flavouring and Pu-erh but this one has made my exception list.

It’s a good tea. It’s pretty. :) Not my all time fave. A little too sweetsy for my taste. What I’ve done is blend it with oolong tea (Monkey-Picked Oolong) or a green tea. The combo adds a nice fruity twist.

My steep time and temp are dependent on the tea I blend with, so I didn’t make an adjustment to that end.

This has easily become one of my favorites. I enjoy the strong strawberry flavor with the hint of mint freshness. Its wonderful cold or hot, and one of the first teas I’ve actually finished and bought more of.

I think the other comments say it best when they say it reminds them of fruity gum. I like pu-erh tea, and I like fruity tea. This tea is a bad combination of both, coming across as artificial fruit flavor (and aroma) that would make the makers of Bubble Yum envious.

This is such an odd tea. The mint flavor sticks out the most to me, layered on top of fruits (that’s as specific as I can get – I can just taste general fruitiness). I don’t know how well it works weight-wise, but it does make me feel a little bit better about all that Thai food I ate, so that counts for something I guess!

It’s a very yummy tea with a unique flavor profile. I can feel its effects on my tummy after a meal, as far a weight loss, I’m not a believer per say, but it does make me feel better if I’ve eaten too much!

I make iced tea out of this & it’s really refreshing! It’s nice hot also. Don’t know all that much about help in the weight loss department though. I’m driniking it for the taste.

I generally am not fond of fruity tea blends, but something about the sample I had… and my daughter really liked it, so I thought I would get it to use as a way to pull her into the wonderful world of tea that I have loved for most of my life. I found myself making this blend more and more often. It sneaks up on you. It is very light and refreshing and fruity. A singular flavor that I find myself craving. Yum!

I’m not too sure on this one. It does have a nice strawberry flavor. However, I haven’t decided exactly what it is that I’m not too particular about. It has a nice sweetness that you really do not need a sweetener for. Wondering if there is another tea to blend this with to better suit my liking.
