Yes, Lipton Yellow Label Black Tea contains caffeine. The amount in your cup varies with how much tea you use and how long you steep it, so include it when considering your overall caffeine intake.
No, Lipton Yellow Label Black Tea is black tea, not green tea. The leaves used for black tea are more fully oxidized, giving it a darker brew and a different flavour from green tea.
Steep Lipton Yellow Label Black Tea for a few minutes in freshly boiled water, then remove the tea bag. A longer steep makes the drink stronger and can bring out more bitterness.
Yes, you can add milk to Lipton Yellow Label Black Tea. It softens the tea’s flavour and makes the drink creamier; brew the tea first, then add milk to taste.
Yes, Lipton Yellow Label Black Tea works well for iced tea. Brew it a little stronger than you would for a hot cup, let it cool, and serve it over ice with lemon if you like.
Yes, frequent drinking of Lipton Yellow Label Black Tea can contribute to surface stains. The dark pigments in black tea can cling to tooth surfaces; rinsing your mouth with water after drinking may help.
Yes, you can drink Lipton Yellow Label Black Tea on an empty stomach, but it may cause nausea or stomach discomfort for some people. If that happens, try having it with food instead.
Yes, you can steep a Lipton Yellow Label Black Tea bag a second time, but the next cup will usually taste weaker and less aromatic. Don’t leave a used tea bag sitting out for a long time.
Store Lipton Yellow Label Black Tea in a tightly closed container in a cool, dry place away from light and strong odours. Moisture and nearby smells can dull the tea’s aroma.
No, Lipton Yellow Label Black Tea is not the bergamot-flavoured tea style associated with Earl Grey. Expect a straightforward black-tea blend rather than Earl Grey’s distinctive citrusy aroma.

Lipton Yellow Label Black Tea is a branded blend of black tea leaves, made to be brewed as a hot drink. Its brisk, gently astringent taste and deep colour suit a simple cup at breakfast or a break during the day. Depending on local custom, it may be served plain, with milk, or with a little sugar; in Turkey, black tea is often poured into small, tulip-shaped glasses.
Brewed without sweeteners, it is almost calorie-free. It pairs easily with toast, savoury snacks or biscuits. For a lighter-tasting cup, use a shorter steep and add milk or sugar only to your preference.
Low
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
