I feel like this is some of the most proactive tea I have. It's fair-trade, it's organic and a bit of the proceeds went to help support breast cancer research. Plus Zhena's is pretty high quality. I've only tried a few of their products but they would have been worth the money they ask for on the site. But I shouldn't be praising this tea before I've reviewed it! This blend contains sencha green tea, cherries, elderberries and blossoms. It's also discontinued so you probably won't be able to find this fresh.
Outsides: The sachets are in a nice metal tin and are made out of corn silk. The tea is a light pink color and smells fruity.
Insides: This is similar and yet opposite of the Loyd Tea with Strawberry and Raspberry. Both are berry-focused teas that start out a little tangy, but the Loyd did not ultimately feel like a tea. Zhena's has a good balance between the tartness of the cherries, sweet and floral notes from the blossoms and sencha backdrop. It's multidimensional, light and versatile, having a nice fruit flavor that would go well with or without sugar, hot or cold.
Overall: It's a pity that this isn't around anymore because it's fantastic. I still encourage you to check out Zhena's and try at least one of their teas (they're a bit expensive but totally worth it).
My Rating: Buy it! Here's the site: Zhena's main site
