From The Republic of Tea

Apple pie is proof that apples and vanilla make an enticing duo. We’ve blended apples with the tangy berry and bright citrus qualities of exotic hibiscus along with lively rosehips to create this aromatic, uplifting herbal tea.

Steeping Instructions
Steeping herbal tea is easy. Simply heat fresh, filtered water to a rolling boil. Then pour water over tea and steep for 5-7 minutes if using a tea bag or full-leaf. For iced tea, double the amount of tea used. Cool and serve over ice.

Ingredients: Hibiscus (flower), rosehips (fruit), apple bits (fruit), stevia (leaf). Other Ingredients: Natural vanilla and apple flavors

This doesn’t smell like much coming out of the container, maybe just a little tart, but once the water hits the leaves it has a wonderful autumnal apple cider fragrance. The color is a deep berry red, which I expected from the hibiscus. It does taste very tart and a little artificial. I’m sure that’s coming from the stevia. I added a little honey and this tea really comes alive. The apple flavor really comes through and I can definitely taste something like cider.

I love apples. They’ve always been my favorite fruit. Unfortunately, my favorite fruit more often that not gets presented badly in tea. Usually the apple is barely there, or it’s a very bad artificial apple taste. I’m so glad I tried this tea because it has the crisp taste of apples spot-on. It is especially amplified since the tea has stevia in it, giving it a natural sweetness. The vanilla helps to balance the apple and make it an overall smooth taste.

I would say, however, that this tea may be too sweet for some palettes. If you’re not big on sweet teas, you probably won’t like this. Especially since stevia itself can be iffy for some people. I’d totally drink more of this as a dessert tea, as it has a sweet enough profile to drink it as such.
