This tea smells like blueberries (dry and wet). It tastes like a blend of hibiscus, apples and natural blueberry flavor, which are the first three ingredients. In order the other ingredients are: orange peel, rose hips, elderberries, acerola juice granules, licorice root, aloe vera juice concentrate, blueberries. Overall, it reminds me a lot of the Celestial Seasonings "Zinger" line, practically if not nominally including their True Blueberry blend. The Bigelow mashup is a little less tart (good!) and more prevalent on the apple (meh) than the CS tea, but similarly, not quite as blueberry dominant as advertised. In fact, sometimes it seems the hibiscus and apple are more evident than blueberry. Still, by itself, it's a fairly good choice for the value if one enjoys strongly fruity herbal teas of the "Zinger" ilk.
Since I didn't know what an "acerola" was, I looked it up to make sure it wasn't some brand of machine oil or hydraulic fluid, and instead, was assured it's a sour tropical, cherry-like fruit high in vitamin C. That brings me to the stated purpose of the tea, which is to get one to "radiate beauty." The sealed, silvery-inside, paper pouch containing each bag tells us, "isn't it nice to know you RADIATE BEAUTY every day" (not capitalizing the first word of the question, nor putting a question mark at the end). Well, I don't think that's true in my case, but if that's one of the "benefits" suggested by the fact this line of tea is called "Benefits," than hey, maybe I'll become a supermodel after going through a box of bags. Beats drinking hydraulic fluid. ;-)
