LCurator note · Lipton
Worth not confusing this with the caffeine-free Lipton Berry Bliss fruit infusion: this is a proper black tea with berries on top, so it has caffeine and a tea backbone the herbal one does not. Strawberry is the star, jammy and full, and it really does taste of fruit rather than boiled sweets, with sharper raspberry and redcurrant giving it an edge and a proper berry smell rising from the cup before you even sip. The black base is smooth and sits at a modest three out of five, which is the right call here, present enough to give structure but not so strong it fights the fruit. That makes it an easy afternoon tea or, brewed long and chilled, an excellent ruby iced tea for summer. Drink it black, the fruit carries it, and milk would muddy it. Pick this over Berry Bliss when you want the caffeine and the body; pick the herbal one for the evening.

Curator’s notes

Read the full write-up
Lipton Black Tea Red Fruits with French Strawberries is a strawberry scented black tea for anyone wanting a fruity cup in place of sugary, high calorie drinks. Plenty of fruit blends end up thin or artificial; this one goes for a smooth berry cup, made from good black tea with real pieces of forest fruit. In Lipton's bags it is as easy to make at the kitchen table as during a short break at work. For a properly British teatime, this jammy Lipton strawberry and red fruit black tea pairs nicely with a traditional afternoon snack or as a refreshing smooth cold brew ruby water. Sipped with your feet up on a Sunday or snatched between jobs, it is bright and tangy with red fruit, and carries Lipton's long run of quality into 2026.

The Story Behind the Lipton Brand

For more than a century Lipton has led the world's tea trade, and it is still finding new, more sustainable ways to operate.
  • Innovation Pioneers: Lipton's best known innovation is the pyramid bag, which gives water room to flow and leaves space to swell while brewing.
  • Berry Expertise: This specific blend uses a high concentration of forest fruits to ensure the most authentic and jammy profile possible.
  • Packaging: Used bags and carton may part company at the bin; the box and your council's rules say how.

Lipton Commitment To The Planet

Lipton counts itself among the first to make tea production more sustainable, and wants every part of this strawberry tea to be kind to the environment.
  • Pyramid Technology: Lipton shapes the bags to brew as fully as possible, so a second bag in the cup is rarely needed.
  • Worker Welfare: Across the countries it buys from, Lipton aims to see tea growers paid fairly and kept safe at work.

Brewing

Brewing the perfect cup

Water temperature100°C: water at a full boil is what pulls the red colour and tang out of a hibiscus and rosehip base.
MeasureOne bag does 200ml of freshly boiled water.
Steep5 minutes with a saucer on top, which stops the fruit oils escaping in the steam and keeps them in your cup.
ServiceThe strawberry carries it without sugar, though a teaspoon of honey softens any tartness. Garnish with a slice of fresh strawberry.
Iced versionSteep 2 bags together in 200ml for a double strength base, let it go completely cold, then pour over a glassful of ice and top up with chilled fizzy water.
CaffeineBlack tea means caffeine; we state no milligram figure.
Best withDark chocolate, fresh berries, scones spread with jam or Victoria sponge, and iced when summer gets hot.
Safety and purity

What’s in it, what to know

CaffeineBlack tea means caffeine; we state no milligram figure.
Ingredients and dietary suitabilityThe box you buy carries the current recipe and allergy wording, which Lipton may change, so read it first.
CaffeineBlack tea means caffeine; we state no milligram figure.
AllergensNaturally derived flavours from the named fruits. Hibiscus makes up most of the base, which matters for anyone with an allergy to it.
Nutrient NoteAnthocyanins are what give hibiscus brews their deep red colour, and the finish is clean.
Shelf LifeThe best before date sits on the box; beyond it the bags remain safe, though the strawberry aroma gets fainter. A tight lidded caddy in a cool, dry, shaded spot keeps the strawberry bags right.
Formulations change; the current UK pack is always the final word on ingredients and allergens.
