What You Should Know

You'd spot this bottled berry-hibiscus iced tea in the refrigerated drinks case or on a store shelf as an easy grab for a warm afternoon or casual brunch. It reads as a wholesome, slightly nostalgic refreshment — like a summer pitcher in a bottle — but ingredients such as added agave syrup, blackberry juice concentrate and "natural flavor" indicate industrial reformulation and a consistent packaged texture typical of ultra-processed drinks.
