LCurator note · Tetley
This one earns its place cold rather than hot. Natural lemon zest sharpens the mild green base and covers its grassy edge, so a jug brewed and chilled can stand in for a sugary soft drink at a desk, minus the sugar and the calories. Hot, it is pleasant, bright and clean, but iced it becomes properly useful.

Tetley Green Tea with Lemon, in brief.

Tetley Green Tea with Lemon, 50 Tea Bags 100g is a black- or green-tea blend; the current ingredient panel confirms tea leaf in the recipe.

Caffeine: This blend contains black or green tea leaf and therefore contains caffeine. No per cup caffeine figure appears on the current pack, so we do not claim one. See our caffeine guide to learn what makes brewed amounts vary from cup to cup.

Curator’s notes

Read the full write-up
Tetley Green Tea with Lemon is a lemon green tea for anyone who would rather drink something light than a high calorie sugary drink. Plain green blends can taste sharp or too grassy; this one gives a smooth citrus cup from premium green tea and natural lemon zest. These fruity Tetley green tea bags carry that approachable quality into a bolder cup, one for the kitchen at home or a break at work. For a lighter take on the British tea break, pour this bright lemon green tea pairs nicely with a traditional afternoon snack or as a refreshing smooth cold brew spa water. A quiet moment at home or a busy afternoon at work, the cup is zesty with lemon and keeps the Tetley tradition of quality alive in 2026.

The Story Behind the Tetley Brand

In 1837 Joseph and Edward Tetley set up Tetley in Yorkshire, and nearly two centuries later it remains a world leader in tea culture.
  • Innovation Pioneers: Tetley is remembered for the UK's first tea bags, launched in 1953, and it still leads with plant based materials.
  • Wellness Focus: This specific blend reflects a move into health conscious drinks focusing on smoothing out bitterness for a more accessible cup.
  • Master Blenders: At least eight checks go into every batch, made by experts at a firm whose heritage runs beyond one hundred and eighty years.

Tetley Commitment To The Planet

In sustainable tea production Tetley counts as a pioneer, and each part of this lemon green tea pack is supposed to respect the environment.
  • Packaging: The carton and the bags may need separate disposal routes, so follow what the UK pack states and what your local authority advises.

How does it compare

vs Twinings Lemon GreenTetley offers a more mellow and less astringent profile that is specifically designed for all day drinking.
Brewing

Brewing the perfect cup

Water temperature80°C; measure it with a thermometer or set a kettle to it, because how quickly boiled water cools varies with the quantity and the kettle. 100°C is too hot for green tea, as it wrecks the delicate amino acids behind that smooth, sweet character.
MeasureOne bag goes into each standard mug, which holds 200ml of water. For loose leaf, use one heaped teaspoon.
SteepTwo to three minutes is the limit; steep longer and the cup turns bitter. Remove the bag promptly; do not squeeze.
ServiceLeave out the milk and the sugar, as the natural sweet, grassy notes do not need them. A slice of lemon lifts the cup if that is how you like it.
Cold brewA glass jug holds 250ml of cold water and one bag, and the fridge does the rest over 4 to 8 hours. A cold steep favours the sweeter compounds, giving green tea that is as smooth as it gets for a hot day.
Iced versionGo double strength: one bag, just 100ml of water at 80°C and 2 minutes, then cool it, pour it over ice and dilute with cold water.
Best withAlmond cake, dark chocolate, sushi, sashimi and steamed rice dishes.
Safety and purity

What’s in it, what to know

Ingredients and dietary suitabilityAllergen advice follows the formulation and both can change, so it is worth reading what the current UK pack says before you buy Green Tea with Lemon.
AllergensNaturally derived flavours from the named fruits. Hibiscus is the main base ingredient, so anyone allergic to hibiscus should bear that in mind.
Nutrient NoteHibiscus based brews contain anthocyanins, the pigments responsible for the deep red colour.
Shelf LifeLook on the pack for the best before date; past it the green tea is safe to drink, just weaker in aroma. An airtight container is where green tea belongs, stored cool, dry and shaded from direct sunlight.
Formulations change; the current UK pack is always the final word on ingredients and allergens.

Inside the pack

Caffeine: This blend contains black or green tea leaf and therefore contains caffeine. No per cup caffeine figure appears on the current pack, so we do not claim one. See our caffeine guide to learn what makes brewed amounts vary from cup to cup.

Pack: A 100g box of 50 lemon green tea bags, caffeinated because it is real tea. From the pack date, its best flavour runs for 18 months.

Shown here are the characterising components; if there is an unquantified base, it supplies the remaining body. Sourced worldwide, then blended and packed by Tetley to its brand specification.

Packaging: The carton and the bags may need separate disposal routes, so follow what the UK pack states and what your local authority advises.

What's in Tetley Green Tea with Lemon, 50 Tea Bags 100g, and what isn't:

  • In: tetley green tea with lemon, and the bag holds the listed components and nothing else, apart from any infusion base.
  • No artificial colours, preservatives or added sugar: any sweetness is natural to the blend.
  • Allergen note: the lemon green tea is packed at a facility shared with nuts and cereals, so the latest pack has the cross contact statement that is current.
