About Brisk iced tea
Brisk Iced Tea is a flavored, sweetened beverage originally developed in the U.S. by the Pepsi-Lipton Partnership in 1996. It is part of the growing ready-to-drink tea segment and is popular for its bold taste and refreshing qualities. Since it is a processed drink, its nutritional profile primarily includes water, added sugars, minimal caffeine, and negligible amounts of protein, fiber, vitamins, or minerals. Brisk Iced Tea may also contain citric acid and artificial flavor additives depending on the variety. Unlike freshly brewed tea, the nutritional benefits directly associated with tea, like antioxidants, may be significantly reduced due to manufacturing processes.
Health Benefits
- Hydration support due to its high water content.
- Minimal caffeine content can provide a gentle energy boost, though less than coffee or traditional tea.
- Some varieties may include antioxidants from tea, though levels are greatly reduced compared to freshly brewed tea.
Dietary Considerations
Selection and Storage
