Tetley has introduced a new iced tea that's brewed, lightly sweetened and contains 50 per cent of your daily vitamin C.

The new teas come in black tea with Mediterranean lemon, green tea, green tea and pomegranate, and white tea and blueberry.

Tetley says the teas are preservative-free, enhanced with natural fruit juices and naturally sweetened with a hint of raw cane sugar. They are available in the juice aisle of most grocery stores.

Suggested retail is $3.29 for a 1.89 L-bottle and $1.99 for a 473 mL-single serve bottle.
