What You Should Know

You'll spot this bottled organic lemon black tea in the refrigerated grab-and-go aisle or packed in a cooler for picnics and road trips — an easy, ready-to-drink option for hot afternoons or casual brunches. It projects a wholesome, slightly nostalgic iced-tea vibe because of the black tea base and lemon, but the smooth, consistent sweetness and listed 'natural flavor' give it a convenient, manufactured finish. The use of brewed tea concentrate, agave syrup, natural flavor and citric acid indicates factory blending and flavor standardization common to processed beverages.

Health is a bit of a moving target, isn’t it? This tea is low in calories and made with organic ingredients, so it's a great choice for a refreshing drink. However, it does have 11 grams of sugar per can, which is something to keep in mind if you're watching your sugar intake. So, it’s healthy in moderation, especially compared to sugary sodas!
