Spa Touch blackcurrant zero iced tea drink Calories

A blackcurrant flavour does not necessarily mean the drink contains blackcurrant fruit. Look for blackcurrant or fruit juice in the ingredients if you want to know whether fruit is actually included.

The exact sweetener is determined by the product’s ingredient list, and formulations can vary between markets. “Zero” indicates a sugar-free product, but it does not tell you which sweetener provides the sweet taste.

It could if the version you have contains caffeine, particularly when you drink it late in the day. “Zero” does not mean caffeine-free, so check the bottle’s caffeine or tea-extract information if caffeine affects your sleep.

Yes, it contributes fluid because it is a water-based drink. Water is still the simplest everyday choice, while this flavoured, sweetened drink can be an occasional alternative when you want something other than plain water.

You can include it in your daily routine, but it need not replace water. It is a flavoured drink made with sweeteners, so alternating it with water and unsweetened drinks keeps your usual choices varied.

No. This version is marketed as sugar-free and very low in calories, whereas many regular iced teas are sweetened with sugar. Their tea content, caffeine and sweeteners can also differ, so compare the ingredient lists.

Keep the bottle capped in the refrigerator and drink it soon after opening. Follow the storage instructions on the bottle, since they apply to that particular formulation and tell you how long to keep it once opened.

Children can have it occasionally, but water and age-appropriate plain milk are better everyday choices. Check whether the bottle contains caffeine, and avoid making a sweet-tasting flavoured drink a child’s main source of fluids.

Serve it chilled with ice alongside a sandwich, salad or light snack. A slice of lemon can brighten the blackcurrant flavour; the drink is already flavoured, so additional sugar is unnecessary.
