This is probably my favorite Celestial Seasonings tea to make as an iced tea. We had a bout of hot weather for a few days and I whipped up some iced tea with this Watermelon Lime Zinger and it was so refreshing and delicious. It does a great job of cooling me down and it's a delicious flavor combination. I never feel the need to add any sweetener (I think that's true, in general, when it comes to the Zinger teas). You can taste hints of both the watermelon and the lime and it's a wonder that they put the two together. I never would've thought of a combination like that (and I regularly cook and create my own recipes, so there are many combinations that I've found for myself before I see them appear on a shelf somewhere). There is this watermelon juice that I get at the store that is a lot stronger than this tea. This just has a hint of watermelon and a hint of lime. But, it's perfect when cold. I admit, I wouldn't make it to drink hot. I have had it warm when waiting for the tea to cool for iced tea and it's just not as good. To me, it's a thousand times better iced. I'd definitely recommend this to anyone. It really is that good! If I were having a get-together on a warm spring or hot summer day, I'd whip some of this up, serve it iced, and put it out for everyone. I know that they wouldn't be disappointed.

This herbal tea has a nice flavor blend. Hibiscus and rose hips together already tastes nice, but adding a little watermelon and lime flavor makes for a fruity and refreshing blend. It's pleasantly tart and fruity with a nice sweetness from the watermelon. I find the flavor well balanced, but I like tart beverages, so it might not be sweet enough for some.
While the ingredients are othewise very simple (hibiscus, rose hips and orange peel), most of the flavor is essentially manufactured ("natural watermelon and lime flavors with other natural flavors"). One of the reasons I buy herbal teas like this, though, is that my young daughter enjoys them. Even though there are some added flavors, there isn't a long list of botanicals with unknown effects. She picked this one out to try and I gave it a go as well. The flavor's great and nothing in the ingredients list worries me on her behalf or my own.
