Black Tea, Orange Pieces, Blackberry Leaves, Safflower Petals, Lemon Balm Leaves, Strawberry Pieces, Calendula Petals, Sunflower Petals, Elderberry Pieces, Raisin Bits, Hibiscus Peals, Apple Pieces, Rosehip Bits, Passion Fruit Pieces, Kiwi Pieces, Raspberry Pieces, Rose Petals, Cornflower Petals, & Peppermint are the ingredients that went into ImmorTaliTea from Cup of Love. Therefore a LOT of time and effort went into this flavor combination!
It has a nice balance of fruity, spicy, mint, sweet, and sour! The black tea base is NOT over the top darker than dark or stronger than strong but it leaves enough room for the other ingredients to come out and play! I mean take a look at the FRUIT in this tea! Orange, Strawberry, Elderberry, Raisin, Apple, Passion Fruit, Kiwi, and Raspberry! YUM!
Then for the herbal side of things you will notice in both aroma and taste the Blackberry Leaves, Lemon Balm, and Peppermint! Refreshing!
Let’s NOT forget the the floral side of things…Safflower, Calendula, Sunflower, Rose, and Cornflower. Fine and Fragrant!
But the amazement doesn’t stop there! There is the tart of the Hibiscus and Rosehip Bits that tickle your taste buds, too! There is a LOT going on but each and ever ingredient plays its part here!
I prefer this one cold but it’s pretty tasty hot, too! ImmorTaliTea from Cup is one of those teas that will certainly keep you guessing!

Taster’s Review:
Raspberry Chocolate from TeaGschwender is an aromatic wonder! How the senses are livened up by fresh juicy raspberry almost tingling and making the nose feel sparkly if that makes sense, to the deep aroma of chocolate it its natural form – its amazing! The berry notes in this tea are perfection and the chocolate smells like a very nice quality one at that! I am a bit of a chocolate snob so I am impressed by the aroma alone!
Yes it almost smells too good to drink, almost!
The flavor does not disappoint! The raspberry notes are bright and cheerful, not too tart, not too sweet, just like ripe, fresh, juicy raspberries! The chocolate is delicious! As I said I am a chocolate snob, I prefer high quality thus usually expensive chocolate. I can’t stand a tea that has artificial chocolate flavor, like that dollar store chocolate you can get around easter to fill a basket..YUCK!
The tea steeps nicely leaving a lovely aroma in the home, and is again, another perfect holiday or any day tea. I would say this is a dessert tea but I imagine adding some cream would be simply sinful!
The mouthfeel however is surprisingly light, not very robust at all considering the heavier chocolate flavor. This I bet would also be amazing iced or cold steeped!
Another winner from TeaGschwender! Its no surprise but very delightful indeed!

Tasters Review:
I totally LOVE this tea and I have a lot to say about it!
First, I’ve had more than one person call me a hippie before so I often associate HIPPIE with the word GROOVY. Groovy MEANS “highly stimulating and attractive, excellent” and that certainly fits the bill here.
In addition to this being one GROOVY Tea…I love that it’s Guava. I’ve had a few Guava Teas before and I have been left wanting. This is a nicely flavored Guava green tea.
It’s awesome hot or cold.
The taste is sweet and it’s a nice mix of fruity-flavors with a smooth and mellow green tea!
Green Tea BLISS. Delightful! GROOVY, man!
