Lipton Iced Green Tea: shockingly long ingredient list
We went to the Lipton web site and looked up the ingredient list of their Iced Green Tea. We naively anticipated the list to contain water, green tea and perhaps some sort of added sugars. However, the list is shockingly long.
“Water, high fructose corn syrup, citric acid, green tea, sodium hexametaphosphate, ascorbic acid, honey, natural flavors, phosphoric acid, sodium benzoate, potassium sorbate, calcium disodium edta, caramel color, tallow 5, blue1.”
More like Soft drink than Green Tea!
With 200 calories, 13 teaspoons of added sugar and a long list of artificial ingredients, Lipton Iced Green Tea is more like a bottle of soft drink than tea, in our opinion.
To make your own natural iced green tea, brew green tea leaves in a jar of water. Then cool it in the refrigerator. Serve it as is or add citrus juice or honey to your preference.

Since you are talking about the bottled green tea, of course it tastes good since it is loaded with sugar. It is real green tea, but probably not your best choice if you want to diet. For the best effect you will probably want to make your own Lipton green tea or any other brand for that matter. Or you can buy green tea diet pills since you may find the taste of green tea without sugar and other additives less than pleasant.
