Ever have a craving for red velvet cake? Well that urge hit us too, and we decided to take to tea. This blend incorporates the sweet juicy flavour of Ontario summer ripe raspberries and hints of vanilla. We use a fully oxidized base of African rooibos to bring it all together.
This is one of our top summer winners and for good reason. Try it over ice on a hot lazy afternoon, or for an extra special treat make it an iced Red Velvet latte: tea, ice cubes, milk and sugar. Combine in a cocktail shaker and shake. Voila! Instant dessert.

I hadn’t been planning to open this tea yet, but my cat bit a hole in the bag for some reason, so I emptied it into a tin. The flavor doesn’t remind me of red velvet in any way. I taste mostly rooibos and some murkiness. It’s not bad, but I love red velvet, so it’s disappointing. My subsequent cups tasted mostly like strawberry and rooibos. Strange.
I’ve been whittling away at my samples the last few days, and today’s afternoon chopping block features Red Velvet by Herbal Infusions.
This wasn’t my favorite. A woody, malty, thick rooibos hits you first. Then there’s a cloying syrup/molasses sweetness with a hint of chocolate and a bit of rhubarb-ish tartness. Hibiscus, I guessed?
I just checked the listing. Turns out there’s some raspberry (the tart) and vanilla (the sweetness) in this mix. My palate, though not as bad as it once was, still isn’t perfect.
Although I wasn’t particularly moved by this blend, the girl I share an office with is besotted. She took one sip and whispered “wow.”
So I gave her the rest of my sample. She’s taking difficult classes this semester, and deserves some nice tea.
Lol how is raspberry and vanilla red velvet cake? Tea companies are so weird sometimes… But tea selection by cat, I like it! :P
