LCurator note · Twinings
A grown up among the Twinings fruit teas: juicy strawberry and soft elderflower over a hibiscus base, plus a real juniper note that brings an almost gin and elderflower finish. That botanical twist is what lifts it above a simple berry bag and earns its high rating, it tastes considered rather than sweet. The hibiscus keeps a tart edge so it never cloys. Brew it strong, chill it and top with soda and you have a convincing alcohol-free spritz; caffeine-free, and the pick here for anyone who finds plain fruit teas childish.

About this tea

Twinings Strawberry and Elderflower, in brief.

Twinings Strawberry and Elderflower is a caffeine-free fruit infusion built on a hibiscus, rosehip and apple base with strawberry pieces and elderflower flavouring, picked into the teas.co.uk curator selection as the floral-fruit alternative to a sharper berry or citrus herbal cup. In the cup: soft strawberry up front, a delicate elderflower middle and a clean rounded finish you could drink hot or iced over a summer afternoon.

The hibiscus, rosehip and apple do the structural work, giving the liquor its rosy colour and a gentle natural tartness, while the strawberry pieces and natural strawberry flavouring sit on top as the lead note. The elderflower is the elegant touch underneath, a soft floral sweetness rather than a heavy syrup, and Twinings have built the recipe so the cup reads cleanly rather than tipping into the candy-sweet territory many supermarket strawberry teas drift into. The pyramid bags give the fruit pieces space to open fully as the tea brews.

Caffeine status: naturally caffeine free, so late evening drinking is as fine as any other time. Taste profile: soft strawberry up front balanced by a floral elderflower middle and a clean fruit finish. What it is: a Twinings all-natural fruit infusion designed for hot or iced brewing, in the same family as the Pukka Three Berry and Twinings Strawberry and Mango.

Curator notes: our tasting profile is editorial, produced from the current pack and spec sheet and confirmed in trial brews using the brand's recommended timings and temperatures. The brewing guide and shelf life entry above explain storage, freshness and brewing temperature.

Curator’s notes

Read the full write-up
Twinings Strawberry and Elderflower is a fruit tea for people who find standard fruit teas a little ordinary. Where basic berry infusions stay simple, this blend adds juniper berries and white elderflower to give a more grown up flavour. The fruit arrives in ordinary Twinings tea bags, so a cup of Strawberry and Elderflower is easy to make at home. For a relaxed, garden party kind of feel, this strawberry and elderflower tea pairs nicely with a summer garden picnic or as a refreshing midday reset. Zesty and fresh, it suits a quiet moment indoors or a hectic day, and the Twinings tradition of quality runs on into 2026.

How does it compare

vs Pukka Elderberry and EchinaceaWhile Pukka is a deeper berry infusion, Twinings Strawberry and Elderflower is lighter and more floral. It suits anyone who wants a refreshing, garden style cup.
vs Clipper Strawberry and ElderflowerClipper offers a simple organic alternative whereas Twinings includes aromatic juniper berries to provide a more complex and adult flavour profile.
vs Taylors of Harrogate Strawberry and VanillaTaylors provides a creamy dessert like experience while Twinings focuses on the zesty and zippy tartness of hibiscus and citrus.
Brewing

Brewing the perfect cup

Water temperatureOnly full heat, 100°C, draws the colour and the tartness from the hibiscus and rosehip in this infusion.
MeasureUse one bag of Strawberry and Elderflower for each 200ml of just boiled water.
SteepCover the cup for the 5 minutes, because uncovered steam would carry off the volatile fruit oils.
ServiceTake it plain, or add a teaspoon of honey when you want less tartness. A slice of fresh fruit is a good garnish.
Iced versionBrew 2 bags in 200ml for double strength, leave until fully cool, then let cold sparkling water do the diluting, with ice, in a tall glass.
Caffeine noteNaturally caffeine free.
Best withA slice of Victoria sponge, scones and jam, a bowl of berries or dark chocolate, with iced Strawberry and Elderflower for hot days.
