Product Description

Red Zinger is the classic...the original herb tea with the zesty taste that first won hearts more than 20 years ago. Its snappy flavor and rich red color come from the authentic blend of hibiscus flowers, wild rosehips and lemon grass. Red Zinger is a time-honored favorite with a 100% natural burst of excitement. And its vivid energy and wholesome style have always reflected the comfortable side of individualism. Savor it steaming hot at a chilly morning's breakfast table or ice cold in a warm evening's porch swing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Classic flavor and nutritious., October 14, 2006

Red Zinger is the tea that made Celestial Seasonings famous. This was the must-have tea in the seventies. Every well stocked hippie cupboard had to have this tea next to the brown rice and soy sauce. But it is the healthful ingredients and classic flavor that keep it an enduring favorite. This caffeine-free herbal blend brews up into a tasty ruby potion that smells lemon-mint tart and tastes like minty cherry syrup.

Hibiscus is the first ingredient. First consumed by the ancient Egyptians, Hibiscus tea has diuretic qualities, can lower blood pressure, and has minerals and flavonoids. The second ingredient, rose hips, are very high in vitamin C and are used in herbal medicine to prevent urinary tract infections. Other ingredients include peppermint, lemon grass, orange peel, lemon myrtle, licorice and wild cherry bark.

Celestial Seasonings gets extra points for their packaging: they utilize 100% natural recycled paperboard in their boxes and they don't package each tea bag individually. Instead they use a system of a waxed paper bag inside the box that stays shut when you fold it. It keeps the bags fresh and utilizes less packaging than individually wrapping each bag. The art they use on each box is beautiful as are the quotes and information they put on every surface.

Quote from the box:

"Passion colors all that it touches in its own hues." Baltasar Gracian.

I was really happy to find the Red Zinger Tea Bags available on Amazon. I looked in all the grocery stores around my house and it is gone...
I have an iced tea recipe using Red Zinger and apple juice which is delicious. I do not drink the Red Zinger alone so I cannot evaluate it like that. I certainly hope Celestial Seasonings has not discontinued it. Thank you so much for providing it on Amazon! I like that it is Caffeine free. Here is the recipe and I hope it causes you to buy the tea so it will not be discontinued.
Rose Tea
6 Celestial Seasonings Red Zinger (large) tea bags
1 46-oz apple juice
3 orange slices
3 lemon slices
Add water to fill one gallon.
Let sit for 18 hours before serving**** (PLAN AHEAD)

This tea, Red Zinger, is a great experience - it keeps you coming back for more - a truly wonderful tea - I've been enjoying it since 1975. It's been difficult finding it in stores for quite some time - thank you for having it and giving me an ongoing source to obtain more.
