Schweppes lemon can 24x330ml

Schweppes lemon-flavored canned drinks combine refreshing lemon juice, lemon pith or rind, and quinine to deliver a crisp, tangy, and distinctly citrus sparkling beverage that can be enjoyed on its own or as a versatile mixer for cocktails.
Flavor Profile and Composition
Schweppes lemon drinks feature a unique blend of fresh lemon juice or reconstituted lemon juice concentrate along with lemon pith or citrus oils, which lends a balanced, fresh, and tangy taste with a subtle bitter undertone provided by quinine. This combination creates a distinctively sharp yet smooth flavor noted for its thirst-quenching and invigorating qualities. The citrus bitterness is balanced by sweetness from sugar or artificial sweeteners in different product variants. Carbonated water adds effervescence, making the drink sparkling and refreshing. The presence of natural acids such as citric and malic acid enhances the crisp citrus sensation.
