1 bottle (medium) of Zero-calorie iced tea (500 g) has 5 calories. That works out to 1 calories per 100 g. It contains 1 g of carbs, 0 g of protein, 0 g of fat and 0 g of fiber. Its 0.4 mg of Manganese covers 17% of the Daily Value. Its glycemic index is 0 (low), so it raises blood sugar slowly.
Zero-calorie iced tea is a ready-to-drink, chilled tea beverage sold in bottles or cans. It is sugar-free, though the tea extract, flavourings and sweeteners used can vary by product, so the label is the best guide to a particular version. Served cold, it usually has a light tea flavour and makes an easy accompaniment to lunch, a picnic or a warm-weather break.
Across the many places where bottled iced tea is popular, people drink it straight from the fridge or pour it over ice; lemon or mint can add a fresher note. At about 1 calorie per 100 g, it is a very low-calorie alternative to sweetened drinks. If you are sensitive to caffeine, check the label, since caffeine content can differ between products.

How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.

Zero-calorie iced tea can be a lower-sugar alternative to sweetened drinks, but it is not more nourishing than water or unsweetened brewed tea. Commercial versions are typically formulated with sweeteners and flavourings, so check the ingredients if you want a simpler drink.
Yes, zero-calorie iced tea made with tea extract can contain caffeine. The amount varies by product and tea type; choose a product labelled caffeine-free if you are avoiding caffeine.
Zero-calorie iced tea is usually sweetened with non-sugar sweeteners such as sucralose or acesulfame potassium. Many commercial versions also use tea extract, flavourings and acidity regulators, making them different from homemade chilled tea.
No, zero-calorie iced tea does not cause weight loss on its own. Replacing a sugary drink with it can reduce sugar and calorie intake, but the drink is not a weight-loss treatment.
Zero-calorie iced tea contributes to fluid intake, but water is still the best everyday drink. If the iced tea contains caffeine, drinking a lot of it may affect sleep or make some people feel jittery.
Zero-calorie iced tea breaks a water-only fast if it contains sweeteners or other ingredients. For intermittent fasting, whether it fits depends on the specific fasting rules you follow; it is not the same as plain water.
Yes, caffeine-containing zero-calorie iced tea can make it harder to fall asleep, especially when you drink it later in the day. Choose a caffeine-free version or have it earlier if caffeine affects your sleep.
It can be, even without sugar: acidic ingredients in zero-calorie iced tea may contribute to enamel erosion when you sip it often. Drinking water afterward helps rinse the mouth; avoid brushing immediately after an acidic drink.
Brew black or green tea, let it cool, and serve it over ice without sugar. Add lemon or mint for flavour; if you want it sweet, use a small amount of a non-sugar sweetener.
Zero-calorie iced tea is not a good everyday drink for children. Tea-based versions may contain caffeine, and sweetened flavours can make plain water less appealing; water and plain milk are better routine choices.
