Teapigs has launched a range of ready-to-drink (RTD) iced tea cans in two varieties.

Launching in Super Fruit and Black Tea with Peach varieties, the range is available now from Teapigs’ website as well as for general wholesale order at an RRP of £1.99 per 250ml can.

Each variety is sweetened with agave and has no artificial flavours or sweeteners.

Currently, the UK RTD tea market is worth £115m and is expected to grow by 20% this year.

Louise Cheadle, Teapigs co-founder, said: “Consumers, especially younger, more health-conscious drinks buyers, are looking for alternatives to RTD drinks packed full of sugars but without having to compromise on the taste of a sweet iced tea. By using our award-winning teas and a touch of agave for sweetness, we’re not offering concentrates, syrups and added sugars but have launched what we think are best tasting iced teas out there.”

Additionally, 5p per can is donated to the Teapigs ethical scheme which supports vulnerable young people in Rwanda, where the supplier sources much of its tea.
