Zima Is Back

The '90s clear malt beverage hits shelves this summer for a limited time

For a limited time, consumers can pick up a six-pack of Zima, the nostalgic beverage from the 1990s.

In 1994, Zima gave people "zomething" different by offering a first-of-its-kind crystal clear, malt-based, adult beverage that inspired a zillion brands to follow suit. By 2008, Zima bounced like a pair of cargo shorts, but it has remained a cultural '90s icon ever since.

Zima will stay true to its classic look and refreshing citrus flavor, but grab your six-pack at stores nationwide while you can because it'll be gone by Labor Day.
