Be honest about what this is: a sweetened instant lemon drink with a light tea note, closer to a hot squash than a brewed cup, and none the worse for that if it is what you actually want. The lemon is bright and tangy, the sweetness is full-on, and the tea sits in the background, mixes in seconds hot or cold. Treat the added vitamin C as packaging, not a reason to buy. Genuinely handy as a quick, comforting lemon drink; just do not expect it to taste like tea, and note the Reduced Sweetness version exists if the sugar level is too much.
Lift Instant Lemon Flavour Tea is a sweetened instant lemon tea powder that dissolves in hot or cold water. The current 165g jar lists dextrose, soluble solids of tea (7.1%), citric acid, dried glucose syrup, acidity regulator E331, flavourings, vitamin C and sweetener E954.
Caffeine: contains caffeine; a product-specific milligram figure is not claimed.
Use two heaped teaspoons (7g) in 200ml hot or cold water and stir. At the pack serving size, a jar makes approximately 23 servings. Each 7g serving provides 22 kcal, 5.5g sugars and 24.5mg vitamin C according to the current pack.
The manufacturer describes the product as suitable for vegans and vegetarians. Check the jar supplied for the latest ingredient, allergen and recycling wording. Same-day UK dispatch applies to orders placed before 2pm Monday to Friday.
Lift Instant Lemon Flavour Tea is an instant, sweetened lemon tea rather than a tea bag or herbal infusion. It mixes directly with hot or cold water and gives a bright lemon-led cup with a light tea background.
Current ingredients
The current jar lists: dextrose, soluble solids of tea (7.1%), acid (citric acid), dried glucose syrup, acidity regulator (E331), flavourings, vitamin C and sweetener (E954). The manufacturer describes the product as suitable for vegans and vegetarians.
Caffeine: what the manufacturer actually says
Lift's official site says its instant teas contain soluble tea solids and therefore contain some caffeine. Neither the current pack nor the official product page gives an exact caffeine amount per serving. Teas.co.uk therefore leaves the mg field blank instead of publishing the former guessed range.
Nutrition and servings
At the current 7g serving size, the pack declares 22 kcal, 5.6g carbohydrate, 5.5g sugars, 0g fat, 0.1g protein and 24.5mg vitamin C. A 165g jar provides approximately 23 servings.
How to make it
Add two heaped teaspoons to 200ml hot or cold water and stir. For an iced glass, use cold water and add ice after mixing. Keep the jar sealed in a cool, dry place and consume within six weeks of opening, following the current pack directions.
