Lemon Tea

Lemon Tea is a citrusy delight to the senses. It is a Flavoured Black Tea consisting of the finest-quality Tea leaves and real lemon pieces. When brewed, it boasts a rich, acidic characteristic seldom found in other infusions, making it unmistakably refreshing from start to finish.

We take pride in packing it fresh to order here at our Kent-based factory – ensuring you’re getting the best of the best.

Facts About Black Tea with Lemon

Black Tea, flavoured or unflavoured, comes from the Camellia sinensis (Tea) plant. This is the same plant that we get Green, White and Oolong, the difference between each type happening at the factory.

Black Tea is the most oxidised variety, which quite literally turns the leaves from green to black. It influences the taste, too, as most will know well. Add lemon into the mix and you have a match made in heaven.

Lemon Tea Caffeine Content

Is there caffeine in Lemon Tea? Put simply, yes. Indeed, the fact that Black Tea undergoes the most processing means that it also has the highest level of caffeine.

You can expect around 45-mg of this stimulating chemical compound per 8-oz cup. Should you need extra assistance getting out of bed in the morning, in other words, then you’ve chosen well here.

Calories in Black Tea with Lemon

Then there is the question of whether it is a healthy beverage or an indulgent treat. The truth, you’ll be pleased to know, is that it is both.

This is because, while delicious and so seemingly naughty, our Lemon Black Tea has no more than two calories per serving. That’s great news among those who’re looking to cut down their intake or move away from sugary, fatty soft drinks.

Lemon Tea Benefits

Is Lemon Tea good for you? You can count on it. The reason is its wealth in vitamins, minerals and antioxidants, which, combined, can combat free radicals in the body.

Working on a molecular level, your morning cuppa can then reduce the risk of developing numerous chronic conditions, including type-2 diabetes, heart disease and even, potentially, cancer. And there’s more.

Would you believe that the Benefits of Black Tea with Lemon extend to your waistline? We’ve already established that it is a low-calorie choice. However, studies go further to indicate that it boosts the metabolism of fat cells.

This enables the body to burn fat quicker and more efficiently, leading to periods of exercise producing better, perhaps even more noticeable results.

The advantages of Lemon Tea keep getting better as, according to research, it acts as a diuretic. This term refers to promoting the formation of urine.

It might sound strange, but enabling someone to excrete excess water has a sizable role to play in their health and wellbeing. People with high blood pressure, heart failure, swollen tissues and kidney disease often drink Diuretic Tea.

Most of us have tried Lemon and Honey Tea while feeling under the weather. Much of the same applies when we’re talking about the effects of Lemon Tea.

According to a study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, it can boost immunity. The evidence found that it promoted the body’s defences against infection while priming the immune system to attack invading bacteria and viruses.

Expecting mothers can take comfort in knowing that drinking Lemon Tea, in moderation, is safe and potentially beneficial. According to NHS Choices, pregnant women shouldn’t consume more than 200-mg of caffeine daily – the equivalent of around four cups of Tea.

While there are, admittedly, other Lemon Tea side effects worth consideration, the chances are that there is little to worry about.
