LCurator note · Twinings
About as straightforward as fruit tea gets: ripe jammy strawberry out front, a tangy raspberry lift, a touch of hibiscus for a cranberry-like bite, and apple plus a little liquorice rounding off the acidity. That liquorice is the only thing to flag, it is what makes it taste sweet without sugar but leaves a faint woody note some will catch. There is nothing clever going on here, and that is the point: it is the easy, child-friendly, if-in-doubt berry cup, caffeine-free and equally fine hot or over ice.

About this tea

Twinings Strawberry and Raspberry, in brief.

Twinings Strawberry and Raspberry is a caffeine-free fruit infusion built on a hibiscus and rosehip base with strawberry pieces, raspberry pieces and natural fruit flavourings, picked into the teas.co.uk curator selection as the classic red-berry double-act alternative to a softer peach or a sharper lemon herbal cup. In the cup: soft strawberry up front, a sharper raspberry middle and a clean fruit finish that drinks well hot or iced.

The hibiscus and rosehip do the structural work, giving the liquor its deep ruby colour and the underlying natural tartness that lets the berries sit forward, while the strawberry leads with the soft round sweetness and the raspberry sits underneath as the sharper tart layer. Twinings have built the recipe so the two berries balance properly rather than the strawberry tipping syrupy or the raspberry going too sharp, and the pyramid format gives the fruit pieces room to open during the brew.

Caffeine status: naturally caffeine free, so late evening is no problem, nor is any other time. Taste profile: soft strawberry up front balanced by a sharper raspberry middle and a clean fruity finish. What it is: a Twinings all-natural berry fruit infusion designed for hot or iced brewing, in the same family as the Pukka Three Berry and Twinings Raspberry and Lemon.

Curator notes: we give you a tasting profile that is ours alone, written after reading the pack as it is today next to the brand's spec sheet, and verified by brewing the tea the way the brand advises. Storage, freshness and brewing temperature are covered by the brewing guides and the shelf life section on this page.

Curator’s notes

Read the full write-up
Twinings Strawberry and Raspberry brings traditional blending skill to an everyday berry tea. Fruit teas often turn out thin or overly acidic; here liquorice root and apple pieces give a natural sweetness to layer through the cup. Strawberry and Raspberry comes in plain Twinings herbal tea bags, which makes a cup at home a simple matter. To get a snug, thoroughly British feel, this berry tea pairs nicely with a garden picnic or as a hydrating afternoon lift. For ingredients, allergens and dietary suitability, go by what the current UK pack says.

The Story Behind the Twinings Tea Brand

Twinings is a heritage British company with a legacy rooted in over 300 years of tea craftsmanship.
  • The Master Blenders: Founded by Thomas Twining in 1706, the Twinings tea brand was built on a passion for sharing the finest botanicals with the UK market. They are famous for their expertise in balancing bold fruit flavours with delicate herbal bases.
  • Sourced with Care: Twinings operates the "Sourced with Care" programme, which improves the lives of the communities from which they source. That care means a better brew for Twinings tea UK customers.
  • Wellness Pioneers: It gives the satisfaction of a fruit juice drink, but without the added sugar.

Twinings Commitment To The Planet

Sustainable tea production is Twinings' declared field of pioneering, and it says every component in this product respects the environment.
  • Packaging: Strawberry and Raspberry packaging has several parts, and the disposal route may differ for each, so use the UK pack and your local authority as guides.

How Do I Make Twinings Strawberry and Raspberry?

To get the most from your Twinings tea bags, and to make a really good fruit infusion at home, preparation matters. Freshly boiled water is vital to allow the dried fruit pieces and hibiscus to fully rehydrate.
The Classic Hot Serve Brewing Guide:
  • Measure: Place one bag into your favourite pre warmed mug.
  • Pour: Water that has just boiled, 100 degrees Celsius, goes directly over the bag so that the botanicals are agitated.
  • Steep: Let it brew for 3 to 5 minutes to allow the berry notes to fully release. Expert Tip: Leave the bag in while drinking for an increasingly intense fruit punch flavour.
  • The Finish: Do not squeeze the bag too hard, as letting it drip naturally preserves the clarity of the liquor.
The Iced Berry Refresher Recipe:
  • Ingredients and dietary suitability: Because formulations and allergen advice may change, read the current UK pack of Strawberry and Raspberry before you buy.
  • The Prep: Brew 2 bags in 150ml of freshly boiled water for 6 minutes to create a potent ruby red concentrate.
  • The Chill: Allow the liquor to cool to room temperature before pouring over a tall glass filled with large ice cubes.
  • The Serve: Garnish with fresh strawberries and a slice of lemon for a refreshing finish that remains completely caffeine free.
The Berry Sparkler Mocktail Recipe:
  • The Base: Steep 2 bags in 80ml of boiling water for a full 10 minutes to extract a syrup like intensity. Allow to cool completely.
  • The Fizz: Pour the cool concentrate into a flute or tumbler and top up with chilled sparkling water or lemonade.
  • The Combine: Add a sprig of mint and a few frozen raspberries. This makes an alcohol free drink that suits garden parties or a slow evening.

How does it compare

vs Standard Fruit TeaWhen compared to basic supermarket fruit blends which can be thin and overly sour, Twinings Strawberry and Raspberry offers a much more full bodied profile. It uses apple pieces and liquorice root to create a smoother mouthfeel that does not require added sugar to be enjoyable.
vs Sugary Fruit JuicesThis is the total opposite of a carton juice because it is a water based infusion. It contains zero added sugar and negligible calories, so it will not spike your blood glucose but still offers the rich berry taste you crave.
vs Plain WaterFor anyone who finds plain water dull, this infusion adds flavour in a simple way. It gives your water bottle a deep ruby colour and a lively flavour, with no caffeine and nothing artificial.
Brewing

Brewing the perfect cup

Water temperatureBoiling hot, 100°C, because it takes full heat for the hibiscus and rosehip to release colour and tartness.
MeasureAllow one bag of Strawberry and Raspberry per 200ml of just boiled water.
Steep5 minutes under cover; keeping the cup covered holds in the volatile fruit oils, which the steam would otherwise take away.
ServiceUnsweetened is fine; a teaspoon of honey helps if the tartness is more than you like. Add a slice of fresh fruit as garnish.
Iced versionIced Strawberry and Raspberry starts with 2 bags in 200ml, brewed double strength and cooled completely; ice and cold sparkling water go into a tall glass with it.
Caffeine noteNaturally caffeine free.
Best withFresh berries, scones and jam, dark chocolate and Victoria sponge are good partners, with iced serving for a hot summer day.
Safety and purity

What’s in it, what to know

CaffeineNaturally caffeine free; safe at any hour.
AllergensNaturally derived flavours from the named fruits. If you have a hibiscus allergy, bear in mind that hibiscus is the principal base ingredient.
Nutrient NoteHibiscus anthocyanins colour the cup a deep red, and it finishes clean.
Shelf LifeA date marked best before appears on the pack, and the tea remains safe beyond it, if less aromatic. The right place for the tea is an airtight container somewhere cool and dry, without direct sunlight.
Formulations change; the current UK pack is always the final word on ingredients and allergens.
