Pure Leaf Tea, Lemon

Pure Leaf Tea, Lemon (59 foz) is a large-format, ready-to-drink bottled iced tea you’d spot in the chilled beverages aisle or in a refrigerated grab-and-go cooler next to other bottled teas, lemonades and craft sodas. The label leans on a “brewed” story—prominent text and a Rainforest Alliance mark suggest responsibly sourced tea—while the ingredient list (brewed black tea, sugar, citric acid, natural flavor, citrus pectin) points to a sweetened, flavored beverage intended for immediate consumption. It fits casual occasions like backyard barbecues, road trips, weekend brunches or a family picnic where people want a familiar sweet tea without brewing at home. Brand positioning skews toward approachable premium: Pure Leaf markets itself as a more authentic, tea-forward alternative to soda, appealing to adults who want convenience with a crafted image; it’s also family-friendly and often displayed in multi-packs for shared occasions. Label characteristics include health-halo cues—“brewed” tea, Rainforest Alliance certification—and the word “natural” from the ingredient “natural flavor,” but there’s no organic or low-sugar claim. In plain terms the product is a prepared, shelf-ready sweetened tea made from brewed tea and added ingredients rather than loose-leaf brewing at home. Sensory notes: bright lemon aroma, sweet up-front taste with 25 g sugar per serving, a light, watery body smoothed slightly by citrus pectin, and a crisp acidic snap from citric acid. Typical use is chilled and poured over ice from the bottle, taken to gatherings, or sipped as a nostalgic, convenient refreshment.
