Classic lemonade joins Honest Tea's zero-calorie beverage line

BETHESDA, Md. — Honest Tea is adding another zero-calorie beverage to its lineup.

New zero-calorie, USDA-certified organic, caffeine-free classic lemonade is the first zero-calorie Honest Ade naturally sweetened with organic stevia, the company said. The new variety is the brand's second zero-calorie offering.

"Most summertime drinks deliver short-term refreshment and long-term calories," said Seth Goldman, Honest Tea president and CEO. "Our classic lemonade provides the satisfying taste of fresh-squeezed lemons, and you won't have to worry about squeezing into your swimsuit."

Honest Tea's classic lemonade now is available at a suggested price of $1.79 at retail in New England and the mid-Atlantic, and soon will expand distribution to the West and East Coasts later in the year.
