Here's a portion of the article I found online:

Antioxidant Snapple

Antioxidant Snapple
If you were worried that Snapple wouldn't be able to stay atop the weird-flavor nutraceutical wave, don't give it another thought: There are three new Red Tea Snapples, all brewed with rooibos (say "roy-boss" -- or don't), an antioxidant-rich South African herb that makes caffeine-free red tea. To judge by what's said about rooibos on the Internet, Mr. Tidbit reported a couple of years ago, it probably cures every known illness and makes your feet smell like gardenias. And put a bottle of rooibos next to one of Snapple's four flavors of green tea and you have a Christmas decoration. Sort of.

But wait: Rooibos is just the "tea" part. There are three red-tea flavors: peach pomegranate (pomegranate was the hot antioxidant fruit not long ago), acai mixed berry (acai is 2006's equivalent of pomegranate), and Mandarin tangerine. (Snapple apparently didn't hear about all the antioxidants in mangosteens.)
