vegetarian types in the 70's, made with a deep red hibiscus leaf.  I will, 
however, be careful to protect my red wine's aroma by keeping it warm.>>

I stand corrected. I had never heard of Red Zinger. 
I'm a green tea person (and espresso coffee, lately). 
I think red wine is best served at room temperature, opening the bottle and leaving it a while to "breathe".
