Curator note · Lipton
A sharp, properly lemony black tea, and the named Spanish zest is doing real work here, the citrus is bright and clean rather than the dull lemon-barley-water note cheap versions settle for. It hits a full five out of five for lemon intensity, so this is the one for people who want the citrus loud, not subtle. Behind it sits a robust black base with enough earthy body to stop it tasting like flavoured water, and the finish stays zesty and clean. We also carry Cotterley Lemon Tea, which is the gentler, maltier take; this Lipton is the punchier, more acidic one in pyramid bags, so pick on how much lemon you actually want. It is excellent over ice with a real lemon wheel, and a thread of honey rounds off the sharpness if you find it austere. Best black; milk and this much citrus do not get along. Skip the vitality framing, it is just a bright, refreshing everyday cup that does its one job well.

Brewing The Perfect Cup of Lipton Black Tea with Spanish Lemons, 20 Tea Bags 34g

  • Water temperature: 100°C; fruit infusions need full heat to draw the colour and tartness from the hibiscus and rosehip base.
  • Measure: One bag per 200ml of just boiled water.
  • Steep: 5 minutes covered (covering keeps the volatile fruit oils in the cup rather than letting them escape with the steam).
  • Service: Drink unsweetened, or with a teaspoon of honey if you prefer it less tart. A slice of fresh fruit makes a good garnish.
  • Iced version: Brew 2 bags double strength in 200ml, cool completely, dilute with cold sparkling water over a tall glass of ice.
  • Caffeine: contains caffeine; a product-specific milligram figure is not claimed.
  • Best with: Victoria sponge, scones with jam, fresh berries, dark chocolate; or iced through a hot summer day.

Safety & Dietary Notes

Caffeine: contains caffeine; a product-specific milligram figure is not claimed.

  • Ingredients and dietary suitability: Check the current UK pack before purchase; formulations and allergen advice can change.
  • Caffeine: contains caffeine; a product-specific milligram figure is not claimed.
  • Allergens: Naturally derived flavours from the named fruits. Anyone with a hibiscus allergy should note that hibiscus is the principal base ingredient.
  • Nutrient Note: Hibiscus based brews are rich in anthocyanins (the antioxidants responsible for the deep red colour) and provide a clean vitamin C rich finish.
  • Shelf Life: See best before date printed on the pack; product remains safe past that date but loses aromatic strength. Store somewhere cool, dry and away from direct sunlight in an airtight container.
