Cute box! Great taste!
As others have noted, there are no English instructions that come with these drink packets. The only information is on this product page. But you basically mix the syrup with water. It says 600ML, which is above 6oz, but I did about 5–6oz I’d say and that was a very nice flavor. It’s not too sweet, a little tangy. I love the taste. If I mix in more water, it tastes more like flavored water and isn’t as exciting. (If you are trying to get yourself to drink more water and want to flavor it, then yeah, perhaps 8–10oz per sachet would be ideal.)I used cool water as instructed, but I don’t see why I couldn’t make this into a hot drink rather like an apple cider. Yum! (In fact, they have examples here on the product page, including mixing it with milk, sparkling water, etc.)The syrup packets come in a cute box that had an absolutely brilliant design for opening it. I was so excited I took pictures. For this reason, I think it would make a great gift (as long as you include a card that says ‘mix with water’ and maybe lists the ingredients just in case).The big sticking point, as others have mentioned, is going to be the price. Now, this is a concentrated syrup, an extract, not just a drink mix. And while paying $3 per sachet seems a lot when in a pack of 30, it seems reasonable to me when considering other health drinks that cost 3 per drink or more. As a gift, that may be a bit much though, unless it’s a professional type of thing.The ingredients are good. Note that just because there is no ADDITIONAL sugar, however, does not mean there is no sugar. I do not see a nutritional information chart anywhere in English, but you can kind of google translate the Korean and gather it says 5 carbs / 4.5 sugar per serving (according to however they measure it in Korea). That’s not bad. It's practically keto except for the apple :pAnd convenient? Yes. You can take these little sachets anywhere, in a pocket or a purse, on the airplane (you can take it through security then fill up your water bottle on the other side!!!). Surely cheaper and healthier than buying stuff from convenience stores.I am a fan of the flavor and convenience, and presentation of these drink packets. To be honest, I can’t see myself paying this price in the future, but only because I like water or I usually go with regular tea bags… and although I love fruit drinks I try not to buy them (like chocolate, and chips—it’s dangerous to have in the house). If I were looking for a convenient travel-able fruit drink, though, I would get this in a heartbeat.

Concentrated Hibiscus Extract Tastes Good Mixed w/ Water-Potential Health Benefits & Side Effects
This Serendi Beauty Teatox Roseberry drink comes nicely boxed with 30 individuals packets of a liquid cold brew hibiscus and rose extract blended with apple concentrate, a seven berry blend (blackberry, black currant, blueberry, strawberry, raspberry, cranberry and açaí), lemon concentrate, natural berry flavor, salt, vitamin C and “herbal mixture extracts”. This has 20 calories a packet and no added sugar, but has 5 grams of naturally occurring fruit sugar. One packet contains 4380 mg (over 4 grams) of hibiscus extract.These single serving packets have a syrupy liquid that I mix with about a cup of cold filtered water and then add ice. It makes a refreshing drink that tastes like a lightly sweet herbal hibiscus iced tea. It tastes good, and the packets are convenient at home or to bring on-the-go. I view this as a health supplement rather than a simple drink as hibiscus extract has possible health benefits & side effects. I enjoy this extract, but don’t know if 4 grams of hibiscus extract is safe or effective.Per Web MD, hibiscus may have benefits such as lowering blood pressure. More evidence is needed, but it may also lower cholesterol, treat swelling, colds, constipation, nerve disease and more. But it may also interact with meds such as Tylenol. I’ve also read hibiscus can cause side effects (e.g., headache, stomach pain, nausea, etc.) and even affect medication dosing. Web MD points out it’s needs further study.I can’t say or way or another if Serendi Beauty Teatox is a safe or effective supplement and also can’t judge the purity of this or any supplement. It’s best to consult a professional as it’s up to the individual to learn more about whether a supplement is appropriate for their needs and state of health, etc. I can’t make that judgment. All I can say is that I feel fine drinking this hibiscus extract mixed in water 1x a day, I enjoy the refreshing taste and the pouches are convenient. Based on those things only, I’m rating this 5 stars. Made in Korea.

Good tasting but overpriced for what it is
This arrives in 30 individual packets packaged in a highly presentable hard box. It has 2 printed labels on it with English information. The rest of the box are in Korean language. According to the labels, this herbal tea supplement is supposed to help maintain healthy skin and support antioxidants.This is a purplish red liquid that you are supposed to dilute in 6-7 fl. oz. of cold water. Adjust the amount of water to your taste. Too much water will result in being a flavored water. I use 6 fl. oz. of water and it tastes good. It tastes more like a berry water than a tea to me. I can detect a slight hint of rose in it. Pretty tasty and not too sweet.The supplement facts are, per serving: 20 calories, 5mg sodium, 5g total carbs with 5g total sugars and zero added sugars. It contains 4380mg of hibiscus extract.The ingredients are: cold-brewed hibiscus & rose extract, apple concentrate, seven berry concentrate (black berry, blackcurrant, blueberry, strawberry, raspberry, cranberry, acai berry), lemon concentrate, natural berry flavor, salt, vitamin C, herbal mixture extracts.While the ingredients are wholesome and beneficial, I'm not sure if I can justify the price. At about $3 per serving, it is really expensive for what it really is. There are nothing really special about the ingredients other than them being processed through cold-brewed extraction.Overall, I have mixed feelings about this. It is good tasting but overpriced for what it is.
