I just bought Zarex at the Marketbasket food store in Ashland Mass

Are you KIDDING ME?? There are people still ALIVE... other than MYSELF... that remember this drink?? OMG!!! I still remember the TV commercial circa 1972! "... it's good as can be, just remember the 'Z'"!!! Now I am going to cry!!!

I loved grape Zarex!! I never thought id say it but its just not like the good ol days anymore.

I had some sangria last night that was so sweet it reminded me of zarex now i reaaly want a glass filled with ice and zarex where can i get some?

OMG... i can't believe they still make this. I LOVED IT! I was just talking to some of the girls in my office about that... they had no idea what i was talking about cause they're all in thier 20's...

Unfortunately, they stopped making Zarex last year. I even called the company. Sorry

Zarex will be returning this Spring (2010) I just read an article in the Boston Herald that a couple of fans of the drink mix just purchased it from the original maker. They will be reintroducing it in time for Summer.

My uncle is now the president of the company...if you are interested in reading about it...look up boston globe/Joseph Croce/Zarex it will bring you to the page....production should start up soon (May 2010) I will keep everyone updated on all this :)

I JUST FINISHED CALLING SHAWS SUPERMARKET TO SEE IF THEY CAN PURCHASE IT THEY SAID THAT THEY WILL TRY

I'd like to know where I can buy raspberry flaovred Zarex to make Raspberry Lime Rickys? Quincy MA area. Thanks to anyone who can help.

WHAT WAS THE OTHER DRINK SIMULAR TO ZAREX,THEY HAD SEVERAL DIFFERANT FLAVORS I THINK ONE WAS CALLED GOOGLY GRAPE....CAN SOMEONE TELL ME IT BEEN DRIVING ME NUTS!

Please visit www.zarexusa.com Zarex Zebra is back with four flavors orange, raspberry, lemon-lime and fruit punch.

@ GAIL: You may be thinking of Funny Face?

ZaRex is available by mail order...but...the supermarkets are not ordering it.My aunt works at a big food store and the man who orders the groseries said that until enough people ask for it the main company are not going to get it. My DAD said it was great(especially grape..yum) and he can't wait to buy some and let me taste it. I love my DAD,and if he loves ZaRex, I am sure I love ZaRex too!! And he told me that it tastes good on shaved ice in a cup(he calls them "snowcones")I can't wait to try them, he says they're better than slush puppies because the syrup(ZaRex)is all natural(Dad told me rasberries are not blue but they are red,my DAD is so smart). I love my mom too, and she says that we are going to try Lime Rickies(whatever they are, she keeps rolling her eyes and saying "yum, I can't wait!!"). So please help us get ZaRex in all the stores so it won't be so expennsive by mail order, and we can have it more often, because I want to say "YUM" like my mom and DAD used to. Please give them good memories back again. Ask the grocery guy(or lady)at your local grocerie store that "WE WANT ZAREX!!!" I love my sister too. Do you think my dog will like it? I do not love my brother because he is mean(he will get no ZaRex)! Z A R E X I S A W E S O M E ! ! ! (that is what DAD says)

I remember it well. My teeth are still purple!

In the early 1970s my dad was in the advertising business in Boston, MA. He would often use my siblings and I in various advertisements. When I was in Kindergarten (1972 I think) I was cast in a TV commercial for Zarex. I must have drank 10 gallons of the stuff. By the time we finished I could barely muster a smile for the camera. I don't remember too much about the commercial. I believe it only aired locally and it was promoting a chance o win a free trip to the recently opened Disney World. I haven't see the commercial since it originally aired. I'm hoping it will show up on YouTube someday. On a side note...a previous poster said he found Zarex in Ashland, MA, which is where I now live. I'm going to have to get some for the kids!

ZaRex will be appearing in stores soon. If they don't have it visit our web site. We will have a list of places that do. Flavors are Orange, Fruit-Punch, Raspberry and Lemon-Lime. 781-261-3396 or stop by our web. www.zarexusa.com

I am so exciting they starting making this again. We used our last bottle last December for Christmas Eve punch. My case arrived today! You can order online at zarexusa.com and they are shipping any size order now for $10.

'Memba the commercial? "Zarex the Zebra is zippin' around, and everbody's singin' the Zarex song- Oh Zarex is zippy, Zarex is zappy, Zarex'll make your whole mouth happy!" Man, I wish I had room in my brain for important information!

You can find Zarex at Blast From The Past on Main Street in Falmouth MA on Cape Cod. They sell all flavors and if you want, they will pre-order a case for you. Drop by and check them out!!! Their phone # is: 508-548-1918

I just got my shipment where I now live in PA. I AM SOOOOOOOOO GLAD I HAVE ZAREX AGAIN!!! I found it online out of desperation one day a few weeks ago when I was so thirsty after a day of yard work, I went online hoping to find just one bottle anywhere. Since we never had Zarex in PA, it had been 20 years since I had a glass... and I STILL talk about how much I missed it. I learned it is BACK and ordered 8 bottles. When they're gone, I'll re-order. ALL IS RIGHT WITH THE UNIVERSE AGAIN!

To the poster that asked about googly grape. The company that made that was Funny Face. Those were powdered drink mixes

I wouldn't know this product even existed had it not been mentioned in a short story by Steven King (see "The Reach",in "Skeleton Crew"by Steven King)Is Za-Rex a New England thing?

Stephen Kimg also mentions Za-Rex in His book "The Stand". Made me look it up, so I ended up on this site!

I had a short story published in the Zarex magazine when I was 9, in 1970. I'm wondering if anyone else got the Zarex magazine, and if a copy existed anywhere? @Patrick maybe your Dad would know?

SO GLAD ZA-REX IS BACK!! Just got a bottle of grape at Skinner's Sugar House in East Bridgewater (MA) and can't wait to go back for the rest of the flavors!! It's as good as I remember...ahhh, Za-Rex is the taste of a happy childhood!

It's mentioned in King's Dreamcatcher as well...something tells me Stephen King was a fan of ZaRex.

Hey Patrick, I was in the commercial with you! So was my Dad. I think he and your Dad were friends or at least they knew each other. Your Dad was really nice, but there was another man who came and yelled at us about not smiling enough (prob from drinking too much of it) and he said that we were drinking the wrong color.

Is anyone still making Zarex? I'd like to order some for a 70s nostalgia pool party -- for snow cones.

Hey Elizabeth, would you and Patrick like to head into the backroom to get reaquainted? You know, below the equator? Hint Hint! Wink Wink!
