Lipton Green Tea
The carton makes 100 cups. Lipton calls this green tea naturally refreshing, and it tells you to put the bag in the cup before the water.
The page says the leaf is 100 percent Rainforest Alliance certified. It is green tea, not Yellow Label black tea, and not a mint or mandarin blend.
The bags are imported. A Dutch company owns the brand. CVC Capital Partners has held that business since July 2022.
