Common questions

Is Nestea Iced tea healthy?

Nestea Iced tea scores 39/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

What is in Nestea Iced tea?

Nestea Iced tea lists 10 ingredients, starting with Water, Black Tea, Sugar, Sodium Polyphosphates and Phosphoric Acid. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

Does Nestea Iced tea contain seed oils?

No. Nothing in Nestea Iced tea’s ingredient list matches a seed oil — canola, soybean, corn, cottonseed, grapeseed, sunflower, safflower, rice bran or peanut oil, or an unspecified "vegetable oil".
