Four flavors, three pouches each: how to pick your first glass from the Harney & Sons Fresh Brew Iced Tea Sampler and what the box actually contains.
Start with the flavor you already reach for
The Fresh Brew Iced Tea Sampler is a four-flavor variety pack: Indigo Punch, Tropical Mango, Invigorating Peach, and Blood Orange. Each flavor comes as a 3-count carton of fresh brew iced tea pouches, so you get four cartons in total. The blends include both herbal and black tea, which matters if you are choosing for a household with mixed preferences.
You do not have to guess which flavor to open first. Pick the one that matches a cold drink you already order: if you like berry-forward iced teas, start with Indigo Punch; if you gravitate toward mango or peach, open Tropical Mango or Invigorating Peach; if citrus is your default, begin with Blood Orange. The sampler is designed to let you taste across the range without committing to a full carton of one flavor.
Four flavors, four starting points
The catalog describes the sampler as a way to try Indigo Punch, Tropical Mango, Invigorating Peach, and Blood Orange without deciding on a single carton. Use these cues to choose your first pouch.
- Indigo Punch: A good first pick if you want a fruit-forward iced tea that is not built around citrus or stone fruit. The name suggests a berry or punch-style profile, but the supplied information does not list ingredients, so check the pouch label if you need allergen details.
- Tropical Mango: Choose this first if mango is your go-to iced tea flavor. It is one of the four blends in the sampler and is a straightforward way to test whether a tropical profile suits your taste before buying a larger format.
- Invigorating Peach: Peach is a familiar iced tea flavor, so this is a low-risk starting point if you want something recognizable. The sampler includes it alongside the other three, so you can compare it directly with the mango and citrus options.
- Blood Orange: Start here if you prefer citrus-forward iced tea. Blood orange is distinct from peach and mango, making it a useful contrast if you plan to taste all four in one sitting.
What the sampler actually contains
- Fresh Brew Iced Tea Sampler: Sampler pack of 4 of our 3 count fresh brew iced tea cartons. You get four cartons, each with three pouches, so there are twelve fresh brew pouches total across the four flavors.

Fresh Brew Iced Tea Sampler - Fresh Brew Iced Tea Sampler: Contains herbal and black tea blends. The sampler is not limited to one tea type, which helps if you are choosing for more than one person or want to compare herbal and black tea iced teas.
- Fresh Brew Iced Tea Sampler: Flavors include Indigo Punch, Tropical Mango, Invigorating Peach, and Blood Orange. These are the four flavors you can try, so you can plan your first glass around the one that sounds most appealing.
When the sampler is the right buy, and when it is not
This sampler makes sense if you are new to Harney & Sons iced tea and want to compare flavors before committing to a larger carton. It is also a practical iced tea gift sampler for someone who drinks iced tea regularly but has not settled on a favorite. Because the pack includes both herbal and black tea blends, it can work for a household with different preferences.
The trade-off is that you get three pouches per flavor, not a full carton of each. If you already know you love one flavor, buying that flavor on its own is more direct. The supplied information does not include preparation instructions, brew times, or yield per pouch, so check the pouch packaging for those details before you brew. If you need allergen or ingredient specifics, the catalog description does not provide them; the pouch label is the place to confirm.
Choosing your first flavor by taste preference
Use your usual cold-drink order as a guide. The sampler does not include tasting notes beyond the flavor names, so these are starting points rather than guarantees.
- If you like berry or punch flavors: Open Indigo Punch first. It is the least citrus- or stone-fruit-specific name in the set.
- If you like tropical fruit: Open Tropical Mango first. It is the clearest tropical option among the four.
- If you like peach iced tea: Open Invigorating Peach first. It is the most familiar iced tea profile in the sampler.
- If you like citrus: Open Blood Orange first. It gives you a clear citrus contrast to the other three flavors.
