Is there any Sugar or Artificial Sweeteners in your teabags?

Is there any sugar or other sweeteners in your teabags?

We have not typically used sugar or any other type of sweetener in our hot tea bag products.  However our Sweetheart Cinnamon Herb Tea now contains Reb A, a natural calorie-free sweetener from the Stevia plant.

Our newest iced tea products - Half & Half Iced Tea & Lemonade and Half & Half Iced Tea & Lemonade with Pomegranate - contain Reb A and a small amount sugar with only 10-15 calories per 8 fluid ounce serving.

Caramel Chai Tea contains molasses crystals, contributing a small amount of sugar per 8 fluid ounce serving and only 5 calories.

The flavors in some of our teas contain a very minimal quantity of sugar derived from maltodextrin, an easily digestible carbohydrate made from natural corn syrup and is used as a flavor base.  Maltodextrin contributes a negligible amount of sugar to a brewed cup of these flavored teas.
