I have to say if you like a sweet dessert but don't want the calories this is the tea to help you out with that. Just add a little honey.
I adore this tea!! It is a vibrant raspberry flavor, and when paired with a splash of milk of choice, I can literally taste a rugelach melting in my mouth. This tea is 10/10 for me. Even my sister, who was skeptical, is now a believer!
This is dessert in a cup. Nice raspberry flavor. I like it with a little half & half. When I really want a dessert, I'll add a tsp of cocoa powder (unsweetened). Nice chocolate raspberry treat.
good tea! love the raspberry flavor but you have to be steep for a while it it not very strong
I enjoyed this tea!
Smell very nice. Taste was okay, not as strong as I thought.
My favorite tea of all due to the light and creamy taste of the raspberry in this smooth and pleasant tea.
This is decent and has nice raspberry flavor. However there is a weird after taste that I'm not liking and I very much hate when natural flavors are a listed ingredient, just be transparent and list the actual ingredients that are the natural flavors please.
This is our favorite holiday tea! It has a fantastic raspberry flavor. Delicious with a hint of sweetness!
A great dessert tea!
I was really expecting more. I love raspberry, but this had a very light raspberry flavor. TRoT's Black Raspberry is more for the raspberry lover. As for the rugelach, I got no bread like taste, and there was a strange aftertaste. Sorry, can't recommend this one.
This is an awesome tea. I can't say enough good about it.
love this! It is my nigh time tea to go to!
Not a fan as it seemed to me that it had an aftertaste.
This tea hits the spot if you are in need of a sweet fix. My kids love to drink this tea when the weather turns colder or when they're feeling down. By far their favorite flavor.
This second time purchasing and is I do enjoy it in the mornings on cool days especially
Wow! This one’s different - in a good way! Love the smell when popping the can open. Love it even more when brewed. The aroma and taste present a great balance that is flavorful/nutty yet not too overwhelming. Love the way my kitchen smells when I make this one!
One of my favorite berry teas by far! There's a pleasant warmth to it.
The flavor is beyond what I could imagine. It tastes like a raspberry dessert. I don’t know how they did it.
I feel in love at first sniff. The first sip lived up to the hype of that first sniff. The after flavor at the back of your mouth allows you to appreciate the taste of the entire pastry inspired tea.
Absolutely delicious!
This is a caffeine-free tea. It has a pleasant, sweet flavor that is enjoyable to drink with cake or during periods of relaxation. It could be better with a stronger raspberry flavor.
I drink tea instead of water, so I always brew 4-6 cups & put the tea in the fridge to drink cold. I avoid caffeine so the fruity flavored rooibos teas are a favorite of mine. This one has a great raspberry dessert flavor
I got this as an experiment since I enjoy some raspberry flavors and it was better than I expected!
I recently ordered another canister of this tea, after discovering that it is just as good cold (if not better) than it is hot! At room temperature, some of the pastry flavors seemed more pronounced than when the tea is hot. I have also tried mixing it (over ice) with fruity teas that I have, and this works well too!
It is like a liquid desert.
The taste of this tea is both rich and delicate with its subtle raspberry and pastry flavors.
This tea is fantastic on its own and also goes well with dessert! (I tried it with my mother’s kolachi and it paired nicely!) I have never tried rugelach,, but this tea made me want to find a recipe and try making it! It tastes sweet and rich, like a raspberry cookie! I highly recommend it!
GREAT TASTE
I was really happy with this product. I was a little hesitant to try this one but it is absolutely terrific!
Glad I tried this one. It is fantastic!!
One of the best teas I’ve had! Smells and tastes delicious!
This is one of my favorite teas ever! I love both the aroma and the flavor!
This unique tea was given as a gift and the feedback was very positive. It has a distinct raspberry taste that is delightful to drink.
Rugelach pastry is unique because of the cream cheese used in the dough. This tea truly captures the essence of that flavor with a touch of raspberry. I love it!
I love raspberry rugelach, but my waistline doesn't. Drinking this tea is not exactly the same as eating the real thing, but when sweetened with a little stevia, it's a perfect substitute for the yummy pastry.
I never understood the concept of a "dessert tea" before I had this tea (dessert is dessert and tea is tea. Both lovely, but very different things.) but this hit's the spot! It's got just enough sweetness and flavor to really it the spot when your looking for something slightly-sweet without having a full dessert. I usually put a teaspoon of sugar in and tea I drink, but this tea doesn't need it (but if you do, I don't think it's too sweet. I enjoy it either-way)
I loved the smell of this tea the moment I opened the can. The smell and the taste of raspberry is just right and isn't too overpowering. It's even better with a small bit of sweetner and even a splash of milk.
This is in my line up for evening tea time I really enjoy this with the raspberry flavor ?? I of course add vanilla been honey ?? to make it even better I always use 2 tea bags in my 16 oz cup and steep for 15 minutes. I have it hot before bed.im almost out Definitely getting more.
I just love this tea! With a spot of milk it brings me back to the days when my Mama made rugelach for us as kids!! I go through a can a month!! So..... good!!
This tea tastes exactly like the cookie! Rich, creamy, and a little fruity. With some added milk and sweetener, it's a complete dessert. I wish you would sell it in bulk. It's my favorite tea!
I wasn't crazy about this particular flavor - maybe needs extra sweetener and/or milk, which I don't usually add to my tea. I found the raspberry flavor a little artificial tasting.
The flavor was a bit weird definitely not for me.
I had thought it would have more of a raspberry flovor, but it is still delicious.
I had high hopes for this tea. I absolutely love raspberry anything and enjoy rugelach as my best friend is Jewish and rugelach is always in their home. This tea had a very mild raspberry flavor but I didn't taste much else in this tea. The tea was truly disappointing.
I wish I could buy this in bulk. It's my favorite tea, by far! Smooth, sweet, and creamy…yum!
Rugelach is one of my favorite cookies and I wondered if the tea would live up to my expectations. It definitely did and I have shared so many teabags with my friends that it's almost time to order more. Yummy!!
This was very good, smooth and indulgent. There is a slight cough syrup taste when it starts to cool - so just don't let that happen!
It tastes like eating a raspberry danish. It's so good.
My best friends are Jewish, so I know exactly what rugelach is supposed to taste like. Not only didn't I get the rugelach taste, there is very little raspberry flavor in this tea. I had high hopes for the raspberry rugelach tea because I've enjoyed many of the teas I've ordered from the Republic of Tea.
The raspberry flavior is distinct yet delicate. Overall a mellow tea.
Great tasting teas huge raspberry flavor
I purchased this for a Christmas gift for my daughter. She loves it. I t smells wonderful and tastes amazing.
This tea reminds me of a childhood treat. The memory is very pleasant, but the flavor intensity is a bit weak. If steeped a bit longer or if 2 extra bags are added to a 4 cup pot, the flavor is delicious.
This lovely red tea is a new favorite! And it really does taste like rugelach! Wonderful raspberry fragrance, it makes a wonderful after-dinner or dessert tea. As with Republic's other pastry teas, it's best when served with just a touch of almond or oat milk and lightly sweetened. This one is also good iced, as it retains its sweetness and fragrance, which isn't always the case with flavored teas. Highly recommended!
Tangy with a natural sweetness. Energizing without caffeine. What a treat!
This tea was very subtle. Great option for cool evenings. I will normally have two cups at a sitting.
I was disappointed by this one… not loving the cream cheesey/pastry type flavor of it, I think. But my partner and a friend both love it.
I don't know how they managed to capture the taste of that light, delicious dough, but they did. The raspberry might be a bit strong for some folks, but I love it.
I trust the republic tea to have safe tea to drink that is processed with our health in mind. I ordered a few red tea drinks and this is one of them for my Christmas tea purchase. I'm very pleased with the flavor of red tea. This really tastes good! A nice treat for the holidays.
The flavor is a little on the light side BUT its sooooo delicous. I love this tea!
This was a good tea, but the combination of the rooibos, fruit and cinnamon flavors were not my favorite. I do like it well enough to use all of my tea bags. Between this tea and the other recently released Kosher tea, I prefer the Babka tea, probably because I really like the chocolate flavors in the Babka tea.
It was sooo much better than I thought it should be. Yumm. My new favorite. It makes it hard to share 😆
Smells decadent without fear of calories. Would prefer if the monk fruit were left out.
This does taste a lot like a raspberry danish/pastry. It's plenty sweet without sugar. I just wish the berry flavor was a bit stronger
This tea is my new favorite!! It smells and tastes just like a raspberry rugelach! I really can't get enough of it. It's perfect with just a touch of honey and some milk to bring out the creaminess.
Very flavorful. Love this new tea!
I LOVE sweets, so when I found this tea after being a loyal citizen for a while and knowing that the other flavors were fantastic, I had to give this a try. I am happy to report that this flavor didn't disappoint. It is perfect as an afternoon tea time treat or as dessert after dinner. Guarantee you truly appreciate this tea.
This is a pretty good tea. It has some good subtle notes to it but is on the lighter side. I think this would be better if it was a black tea versus rooibos.
This is overall a good tea. It has a nice flavor. I think I would like it more if it was black tea instead of rooibos.
This is a delightful sweet tasting tea perfect for an afternoon "snack".
This newer tea sounded delicious and did not disappoint. Great for a dessert tea or an afternoon snack.
I had expected this to be another fruit-infused rooibos blend, but the description is entirely accurate--this tastes just like a cream cheese pastry with raspberry jam. Not sure how RoT managed that complexity, but I would rank this and the Chocolate Babka as two of my top favorites. It would be unfortunate to have these available for the holidays only!
I tried this for the first time and thought it was awesome! This will definitely be one of my new favorites!
IT was OK but with all the wonderful teas available i wound not purchase this one again.
I really like the subtle sweetness of this tea, and that says a lot because in general I don't care for sweet tea. Recently finding out that I need to stay away from acidic beverages I have been on the hunt for herbals and spices that would satisfy me. This Rooibos tea hits all the feels. Cinnamon and raspberry? Who knew?
I loved the flavor of this tea. It taste like you having a dessert.
Delicious tea. Light and flavorful. It tastes like fresh raspberries. Just the right thing when you want something a little sweet, but don;t want a heavy dessert.
This tea is scrumptious and tastes like you're indulging in a pastry. It's buttery, has a nice natural raspberry flavor, and it makes my mouth water!
This tea smells and tastes exactly like a raspberry rugelach. When I drink it, I can't stop inhaling the incredible aroma.
Bought this new seasonal tea this year. Wow, it has great flavors of raspberry , vanilla and cinnamon. I love this tea and will definitely be re-ordering before the holiday season is over.
It really is like biting into a crisp cookie with raspberry
it tastes just like raspberry rugelach, great after dinner for dessert.
How do they get this tea to taste exactly like a raspberry cream cheese pastry? Incredible. Love that it is caffeine free so I can have it for dessert!
I'll preface this by identifying the odd aftertaste mentioned by another reviewer: Monk fruit. I nearly called customer service for a refund when I figured out it was in there. I agree that RoT needs to leave out the monk fruit; just put a note on the tin that this tea must be sweetened in some way to get the full flavor profile! After drinking this tea several times, I've learned to ignore the flavor, and I'm carefully avoiding calling attention to it to my mother, who instantly enjoyed this tea. Once she notices the aftertaste, it'll ruin it for her picky, sensitive palette. The cream cheese pastry scent is amazing. We love that this tea does not have too much of anything: It's not too raspberry and therefore acidic, it's not too heavy handed with the cinnamon, and it doesn't have so much pastry flavor that it reads as artificial. It has a mild but complex flavor that's very satisfying once you learn to ignore the monk fruit aftertaste. It would've gotten 5 stars if not for the unwelcome addition. On a side note: If you made a perfume of this tea, I'd buy it in a heartbeat. It smells like a high end gourmand fragrance to me.
I really like this tea! I can taste the raspberry and the cream cheese. Neither is overwhelming. Both compliment each other and is well-balanced. A definite afternoon go-to.
I absolutely love this raspberry tea! It is my new favorite!! I would definitely recommend this tea to anyone who loves raspberry! Very, very yummy!! I'd give it 10 stars if I could. Love ♥
It's really quite different than traditional teas. Kind of smells odd to me, but it tastes fine. I really like the raspberry aspect but I feel like it's got a funny aftertaste I cannot pinpoint. All in all, I'm glad I tried it, and will keep drinking it, but not as good as others.
Please stop presweetening your teas! You should leave it to the citizens how they want to sweeten their tea- or not. Another tin that will sit in the drawer. And please offer smaller trial quantiteas.
I purchased the Raspberry Rugelach and Chocolate Babka Teas as gifts to give to a dear friend. I was very excited to see these new Kosher Dessert Teas by RoT this year, and I know my friend will be excited to try them! Thanks RoT for preparing such great tea varieties that will appeal to many different people!
You Just sip your favorite cake !!!!
I will lose weight by replacing dessert with this tea!!
