Starbucks continues commitment to offering drinks choices with reduced sugar


New Teavana Shaken Iced Teas infused with fruit and natural botanical blends launch across Europe, Middle East and Africa, to keep customers refreshed this summer

This summer, Starbucks introduces new Teavana Shaken Iced Tea Infusions across Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) with fruit and botanical blends – reinventing the way iced tea is flavoured. The botanicals are subtle in flavour and perfectly complement the notes of Teavana teas – creating a perfectly balanced, refreshing taste.

This new range of iced tea has no artificial flavours or sweeteners and has up to 49% less sugar and 52% fewer calories compared to the previous range*.  

Starbucks customers can also customise their iced tea by asking their barista to serve their drink unsweetened at zero calories or make it sweeter with lemonade to create the perfect thirst quencher.

Rachel Chatterton, senior innovation manager, Starbucks EMEA says: “At Starbucks, we are committed to innovating with new flavour combinations. The new iced tea infusions are ideal for customers who prefer their tea unsweetened or want to customise their tea to their own liking, just as coffee drinkers do with their espresso beverages. The Teavana Shaken Iced Tea Infusions are refreshing, fruity and perfectly balanced.”
