What You Should Know

Bigelow Red Raspberry Herbal Tea (20 ct) typically lives on the tea and coffee aisle, shelved with other herbal and fruit blends and often displayed near iced-tea mixes, honey, sweeteners, and simple dessert mixes. The small cardboard box and single sachets make it easy to spot and grab for everyday pantry restocking or a last-minute hostess gift. It suits shopping trips for calm, routine purchases — morning ritual cups, a pitcher for a warm afternoon, or a soothing evening mug — and appears in seasonal displays in summer as a refreshing iced option or paired with scone and tea-biscuit mixes for brunch. Bigelow’s brand positioning leans on American tea heritage: family-owned, approachable premium, aimed at adults who value reliable flavor, convenience, and clean-label cues. The label emphasizes “Carefully Selected Ingredients” and “Natural Flavor,” projecting a mild health halo without organic certification or kid-focused branding; the artful, homey packaging signals trustworthiness rather than trend-led luxury. In processing context, this product is a blended, packaged tea: dried botanicals and fruit pieces that have been sorted, flavored, and bagged for retail — a minimal-to-moderate transformation from raw ingredients. Sensory details include a deep ruby-pink infusion from hibiscus and rose hips, tart raspberry top notes balanced by apple sweetness and floral elderberry accents; the mouthfeel is light, with a gentle astringency when hot and crisp refreshment over ice. The ritual is straightforward — steep a sachet 3–5 minutes, sweeten or chill to taste — making it a comforting, practical staple in American grocery culture.

Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:3 / 4

Processed Food

Why this score?

The product is made from recognizable dried botanicals and fruit pieces but is blended, flavored and packaged for retail; the single added ingredient 'natural flavor' and the industrial bagging point to a processed food rather than an unprocessed whole food.
