flavored

Given a taste

Flavored describes something that has had a taste added to it: strawberry-flavored yogurt, artificially flavored candy.

The word distinguishes modified versions from plain originals.

In American spelling; British English uses flavoured.

Something can also be flavored in a figurative sense—tinged with a particular quality: a jazz-flavored pop song.
