- The Republic of Tea Cuppa Cake Strawberry Shortcake Herbal Tea, 36 Count | Caffeine Free. Suitable for day or evening sipping. Bright with a tart finish. Gluten Free and Kosher. Made with hibiscus.

New favorite blend of tea. It goes down smooth and it's not bitter. It tastes very light but also has a rich flavor. There is no artificial strawberry flavor. Which is a plus for me. I only add sugar to it. This tea doesn't need any milk as I feel like it drowns out the flavor. There's nothing that gives a too sour or too overly sweet taste either. When I steep it, I only use one tea bag. And pour 1 1/2 cups of hot water into my tea pot. It works for me, I get maybe 3-4 cups of tea from it. Note, my tea cups are fairly small. But it's totally worth it for the aesthetic and also for drinking. As I want to savor the taste with each cup. I did use two tea bags once but I didn't like it, but you may if you like a deeper flavor. Not only that but it smells nice and the packaging is just too cute. This is my third time buying this tea. Republic of Tea has become one of my favorite brands to buy tea from. Quality is excellent, I feel that I also get a good value for my money. I'm still working my way through my first one. But I bought 2 more to stock up lol. Makes me want to become a tea princess if I am being honest :>

It tastes more like the doll smells than the actual dessert, but I like it. It leans a little more toward shortbread cookie. I will be trying the other flavors.

I was hesitant to order this as some reviews said it wasn't that flavorful and wow, am I glad I did. This tea surpassed my expectations. Bright and a flavorful fun tea with hints of strawberry, hibiscus and a subtle vanilla cake, delicious with a splash of milk, no sweetener needed. I will be adding to my "drink less caffeine" rotation. As a lover of pink, the extra cute label is a bonus! It's so cute, it stays on my shelf as it's very aesthetic. Delicious tea, fair price, try this, yum.

This flavor was not “my cup of tea.” The strawberry/cake flavors taste very artificial. I always share new teas with my tea enthusiast friends and we all independently came to the conclusion: it kinda tastes like chapstick from the 90s. I have very much enjoyed any other tea I have tried from The Republic of Tea (2 or 3 other flavors, can’t completely remember due to liking to try new teas and many brands) and so have previously mentioned tea-fond friends. I am frugal, so if I buy something, I do like to use it. So I have continued to use these tea bags at intervals and I can honestly say that the flavor grows on you. Not in a way that I can, “yum,” but in a way that I can now say, “it’s not so bad” and actually kinda mean it. But a tea shout out to cucumber mint and chocolate banana- those have been some of my favorites not only from this brand, but of any!

So I buy these teas constantly never seen this flavor anywhere so I was excited to find it available on Amazon! I love all the seasonal varieties there are to offer and the bags are bleach free! Very light flavor but it’s delicious! I do not drink hot tea..instead I make alcoholic beverages out of mine instead of buying all those expensive seltzer drinks out there but what I do is drink all of mine made out of sodastream water. I steep for at least 5 minutes in a small amount of hot water and then I just pour it in my carbonated water and add whipped cream vodka and that’s my go to! This is very light and refreshing for summer months and I will buy more! Keep in mind this is just a hint of flavor for a big bottle of sodasteam water but you could steep more bags at once if you wanted for more flavor if you decide to try it my way :)

Taste delicious

This smelled amazing. I wasn't a fan of the taste, but that's just me, not the company. I actually ended up making it multiple times because I enjoyed the aroma

I was so excited about ordering a new springtime tea, and Tea of Republic is my " go to". But wow was I disappointed in this tea! It tasted downright nasty. After opening it up, I had to throw it away because it smelled up my cupboard with a nasty sweet, almost moldy smell. My husband said it tasted like rancid cherry cough syrup. Don't let the cute label fool you, or the name. Tea of Republic, you can do way better than this!
