    Crisp, refreshing and great for the whole family

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    I have wanted to make this for a long time and am so glad I have. In fact I am actually drinking a glass right now. This... tea is a cross between a crisp sweet juicy red apple and an exotic lemonade. It's not to tart or sweet and a pretty rosy glow. No one flavor overpowers another. First you get the apple, then the exotic taste of the red zinger, which actually enhances the flavor of the fruit and then the clean finish of the lightly tart lemon. This would be great anytime of the year iced, warmed with a cinnamon stick or served sparkling for the non-drinkers at your next celebration. I will definitely make this again.Read more

    Perfect for a ladies luncheon

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    I used the celestial brand's Red Zinger and Lemon Zinger. I used Martinelli's 100% pure apple juice (in a glass bottle in... the juice isle, not fresh) and it is delicious. Read more

    I'm sorry...

    I had high expectations for this drink, but I have to say that I did not enjoy it... Too blah. Nothing special. I enjoy... watching Ina's shows, though.Read more

    Fantastic

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    I (as many others have) altered this recipe a bit. I wanted to avoid the whole "medicine smell/taste," so I used 5 raspberry... zinger bags to 3 lemon. When I cut the recipe in half, I used 3 raspberry to 1 lemon mixed with 2 cups of apple juice. The apple juice is definitely key here. The best apple juice I've found is "Simply Apple." I absolutely love this drink. It's refreshing and does resemble fruit punch in taste. I always drink mine with a wedge of lemon and lots of ice. As far as whether or not it qualifies as a recipe goes....It's a mixture that we didn't know of before, and frankly I personally wouldn't have thought to make it this way, so I think it's definitely a recipe. Also, instead of criticizing Ina on her ability to create recipes, I think that the person whom commented below needs to try the recipe and write a review based on the recipe results....NOT on what they didn't like about the show. We are here to rate the recipes and food only....not to be television critics.Read more

    Always a hit

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    I'm surprised that so many reviewers didn't care for this recipe. I have made this numerous times, and it has always been... delicious. The red tea bags are Rasberry Zinger tea bags- usually next to the Lemon Zinger- all Celestial Seasonings brand. I, for one, enjoy seeing Ina shop for her ingredients. I not only watch the show for her ideas on recipes, I also enjoy the full atmosphere of her surroundings and activities. Read more
