LCurator note · Lipton
The warmer counterpart to Lipton Spanish Lemons. Where the lemon version is sharp and bracing, the Spanish orange zest gives a sweeter, rounder, almost marmalade-edged citrus that is gentler on the palate while still reading bright off the cup. Underneath is the same sturdy black base, so you get real tea body rather than flavoured water, and the finish is markedly clean, free of the soapy orange oil tail that spoils cheaper orange teas. Of the Lipton citrus pair, choose this if you want comforting and mellow, the lemon if you want zingy and wide-awake. It is lovely with a swirl of honey on a cold afternoon and makes a softer, sweeter iced tea than the lemon does. Drink it black to keep the zest clean. As usual, pay no attention to the marketing words; what matters is a fragrant, easy drinking everyday orange black that tastes of real fruit.

About this tea

Lipton Black Tea with Spanish Orange, in brief.

Lipton Black Tea with Spanish Orange, 20 Tea Bags 36g is the orange citrus black tea from Lipton's UK range, using natural orange oil from Spanish orange groves in the Valencia region where the world's finest sweet oranges grow. Its 20 bag carton works out fair per cup, giving British kitchens real Valencia orange flavour at a mainstream price. It made the cut for teas.co.uk alongside the rest of our Lipton teas.

Caffeine: it contains caffeine; the milligram amount is not stated.

Curator’s notes

Read the full write-up
Lipton Black Tea with Spanish Orange brings sweet orange and black tea together, a far more interesting choice than sugar heavy, high calorie drinks. Where many citrus teas taste weak or synthetic, this one aims for a full, old fashioned cup from quality black tea and natural Spanish orange zest. If you enjoy the fruity vibrancy of hyson pineapple tea but would like a warmer, rounder citrus, these Lipton pyramids carry the same friendly character in a fuller cup that works at home and in the office alike. At its most comforting, this roundedLipton Black Tea with Spanish Orange welcomes a ribbon of honey, and it also makes a smooth, cooling iced tea. It belongs as much to a slow evening at home as to a hectic day in 2026.

The Story Behind the Lipton Brand

Few tea brands are as widely known as Lipton, a world leader for over a century that is still developing more sustainable ways of working.
  • Innovation Pioneers: Lipton is credited with introducing the pyramid bag, a design that lets water flow better and gives the leaves space to expand.
  • Citrus Expertise: This specific blend uses oranges sourced from Spain to ensure the most authentic and sweet citrus profile possible.
  • Packaging: Check the orange tea carton and your council's guidance before recycling, since box and bags can go different ways.

Lipton Commitment To The Planet

An early pioneer of sustainable tea, Lipton wants each part of this orange tea to respect the environment.
  • Pyramid Technology: The bag shape squeezes as much infusion from the leaf as possible, so doubling up is seldom necessary.
  • Worker Welfare: On the farms that supply it, Lipton says it works to keep growers fairly paid and safe.

Brewing

Brewing the perfect cup

Water temperature100°C; anything short of a fresh boil leaves some of the orange tea's theaflavins and thearubigins behind.
MeasureA standard cup is one bag to 200ml, and builder's tea is 2 bags in 300ml.
Steep3 to 5 minutes; stretch it for a strong milky mug, cut it short for a lighter one.
ServiceA dash of full fat milk, stirred in, and as much sugar as you like. Milk casein takes the edge off the tannins, which explains why the British nearly always pour milk into their tea.
Iced versionBrew 4 bags in 500ml until strong and, while it is hot, sweeten with 4 tablespoons of caster sugar; when cold, the orange tea gets 500ml of chilled water and the squeezed juice of 2 lemons.
CaffeineIt contains caffeine; the milligram amount is not stated.
Best withMarmalade on toast, which echoes the orange, a full English, fruit cake or scones and cream.
Safety and purity

What’s in it, what to know

Ingredients and dietary suitabilityThe orange carton you buy overrides this page; Lipton can alter recipes and allergy advice.
CaffeineIt contains caffeine; the milligram amount is not stated.
Nutrient NoteThe fully oxidised leaf is rich in theaflavins and thearubigins, and those two give a good brew its brisk, copper toned character.
Shelf LifeOnce its best before date passes, the orange tea is still safe but the zest smells weaker. Give the orange bags an airtight home, cool and dry and shielded from direct sunlight.
Formulations change; the current UK pack is always the final word on ingredients and allergens.
