Great dessert replacement
This shopper rated the product 4 out of 5 stars

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.

Raspberry lover
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

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!

Delightful
This shopper rated the product 4 out of 5 stars

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.

Not Happy About ""Natural Flavors""
This shopper rated the product 3 out of 5 stars

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.

lite raspberry, no rugelach
This shopper rated the product 3 out of 5 stars

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 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.

Great cold!
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

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

At any temperature, this one is a winner!
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

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!

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!

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!

Taste as good as the real thing
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

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.

Tea-lightful!
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

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.

Needs a little help

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.

Not much raspberry flavor
This shopper rated the product 2 out of 5 stars

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.

Disappointing🙁
This shopper rated the product 2 out of 5 stars

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.

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.

Delightful New Offering
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

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!

Just OK for me
This shopper rated the product 3 out of 5 stars

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.

One of RoT's best blends
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

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!

A mild but complex taste
This shopper rated the product 4 out of 5 stars

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.

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.
