LCurator note · Twinings
Behind the name it is simply a half-peppermint, half-green-tea blend with an earthy nettle thread and a faint ginger-cinnamon warmth, brisk, clean and a bit more interesting than plain green. Because the green tea is real, it carries caffeine, so this is a daytime desk cup, not an evening one. No tea raises your metabolism and the added zinc is a label line, not a reason to buy; choose it because a fresh minty-green with a savoury edge is genuinely pleasant, and judge it on exactly that.

Twinings Metabolism 20 Tea Bags
This 40g box contains 20 tea bags. Twinings describes the blend as a peppermint-flavoured herbal infusion with spiced green tea, nettle and added zinc.
Ingredients and authorised claim
The current Twinings manufacturer listing gives: green tea (36%), peppermint (36%), nettle (8%), ginger root (5%), natural peppermint flavouring with other natural flavourings (5%), natural flavourings, cinnamon bark (3%) and zinc.
Zinc contributes to normal carbohydrate metabolism. This is the precise pack-backed nutrition claim and it should not be expanded beyond that exact wording.
Taste and brewing
Peppermint leads the aroma and first sip, with green tea and nettle adding a fresh base and ginger and cinnamon bringing a mild warming finish. Twinings instructs you to use freshly boiled water, infuse for three minutes and remove the bag. It can also be cooled and served over ice.
Caffeine and pack information
The blend contains green tea and therefore contains caffeine. We do not publish a fixed milligram figure per cup because the amount varies with brewing. Check the current box for definitive ingredient, allergen, nutrition and disposal information.
