LCurator note · Twinings
Sharp, not sweet: red hibiscus, tangy raspberry and lemon peel stack up into a bracing, ruby-red cup with real tartness rather than fruit-squash sugar. That makes it a poor pick for something cosy and a very good one for a clean, zingy cup, and it is excellent brewed strong and poured over ice, closer to a grown up raspberry lemonade than a tea. Caffeine-free; reach for it cold in summer first, and only hot if you like your fruit cups bracing.

About this tea

Twinings Raspberry and Lemon, in brief.

Twinings Raspberry and Lemon is a caffeine-free fruit infusion built on a hibiscus and rosehip base with raspberry and lemon flavourings, picked into the teas.co.uk curator selection as the tart-fruit alternative to a softer peach or strawberry herbal cup. In the cup: tart raspberry up front, a sharp lemon middle and a clean fruity finish you could happily drink hot or iced.

The hibiscus and rosehip do the structural work, giving the liquor its deep ruby colour and the natural tartness that lets the raspberry sit forward rather than tipping syrupy. The lemon flavouring brightens the cup and stops the berry from going one-note, and Twinings have built the recipe so it reads as a proper fruit infusion rather than a cordial dressed up in a teabag. The pyramid format gives the fruit pieces room to open properly during the brew, which is one reason this cup punches well above the standard square-bag supermarket fruit teas.

Caffeine status: naturally caffeine free, which means a mug late in the evening is as good an idea as one at breakfast. Taste profile: tart raspberry up front balanced by a sharp lemon middle and a clean floral finish. What it is: a Twinings all-natural fruit infusion designed for hot or iced brewing, in the same family as the Pukka Three Berry and Twinings Strawberry and Mango.

Curator notes: our notes on how it tastes were written from the brand's spec sheet and today's pack, then checked in trial brews that followed the brand's own timings and temperatures. Look to the brewing guide and shelf life note on this page for storage, freshness and brewing temperature on Raspberry and Lemon.

Curator’s notes

Read the full write-up
Twinings Raspberry and Lemon is a fruit tea aimed at people who would rather have a tart, flavourful cup than a sugary soft drink. Unlike a standard fruit tea, it gets its bold flavour from a mix of hibiscus, rosehips and lemon peel. The fruit comes in plain Twinings tea bags, so a mug of Raspberry and Lemon is easy to make at home. For a relaxed, thoroughly British feel, this raspberry tea pairs nicely with a summer garden picnic or as a warming pick me up on a cold afternoon. Zesty and fresh, this blend suits a quiet afternoon at home or a hectic day, and Twinings' tradition of quality is still going in 2026.

How does it compare

vs Pukka Lemon Ginger and Manuka HoneyWhile Pukka focuses on spice and warmth Twinings focuses on a cleaner fruit profile with a sharp berry brightness.
vs Clipper Organic Berry BurstTwinings uses a more complex base of hibiscus and citrus peel providing a multi dimensional tartness that standard budget brands lack.
vs Supermarket Own BrandsTwinings ensures consistent flavour through premium sourcing and taste testing every sachet for quality before approval.
Brewing

Brewing the perfect cup

Water temperatureFull heat, 100°C, is what coaxes the ruby colour and the sharp tartness out of the hibiscus and rosehip.
MeasureAllow one bag of Raspberry and Lemon for each 200ml of just boiled water.
Steep5 minutes, covered; the lid holds the volatile raspberry and lemon oils in the cup, where the steam would otherwise carry them away.
ServiceFine as it is, or sweeten with a teaspoon of honey when the tartness bites harder than you would like. A wedge or slice of fresh fruit finishes the cup nicely.
Iced versionBrew 2 bags of Raspberry and Lemon double strength in 200ml, chill it completely, and finish over ice in a tall glass with cold sparkling water.
Caffeine noteNaturally caffeine free.
Best withFresh berries, jam on scones, Victoria sponge and dark chocolate are its natural companions, and it is just as welcome iced on a hot day in summer.
