Cameron's website states that it has the aroma and taste of passion fruit and raspberry. I could not find a list of ingredients on Cameron's website, and the bulk tag on my package does not list ingredients, so I could not tell exactly what is in the tea, or if there are any added flavoring agents in it.
I brewed the tea my usual way, approximately 1 teaspoon per 8 oz of water and a teaspoonful of sugar per 8 oz cup. When I sweeten teas, I usually use raw sugar or rock sugar, never refined sugar.
The tea smelled delightful as I brewed it, bright and fruity. I took a taste and had to spit out my first sip. It was incredibly sour, like biting into a lemon. I highly suspect that there was less passion fruit and raspberry in the tea and more cranberry. I kept adding sugar and by 4 teaspoons of sugar in my cup, it was still too sour to drink. I was very disappointed, and disappointed that I had bought a full 5.5 ounces of this stuff. I might add a bit of it to teas that are flavorless or too sweet tasting. This one is just not good by itself.
