What You Should Know

You'd spot this in the refrigerated tea or grab-and-go beverage section on a hot day — a ready-to-drink, organic half-&-half iced tea and lemonade made for picnics, BBQs, or a summer drive. It gives a nostalgic, sunny vibe with organic and fair-trade cues that suggest a healthier treat, while delivering a sweet, consistent flavor. The use of juice concentrate, evaporated cane sugar, added lemon flavor and stevia reflects industrial formulation and the smooth, shelf-stable texture typical of ultra-processed drinks.

Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:4 / 4

Ultra-Processed

Why this score?

Ready-to-drink beverage with evaporated cane juice, lemon juice concentrate, added 'organic lemon flavor' and stevia extract indicates industrial processing and formulation; these added sweeteners and flavoring agents are hallmarks of ultra-processed foods.
