Healthy Recipe Ideas
Sparkling Lemon Mint Cooler
In a tall glass, muddle a few fresh mint leaves with a squeeze of fresh lime juice. Fill the glass with ice cubes. Top with 100ml of Sprite and 100ml of plain soda water or chilled water to dilute, and stir gently. Garnish with a lemon wheel.
Health Benefits
Reduces the sugar intake by half per glass while providing a hydrating and refreshing drink with the benefits of fresh mint and lime.
Fruity Sprite Punch

Health Benefits
A flavorful punch that uses the soda for fizz while getting vitamins, fiber, and natural sweetness from fresh fruits.
Additive Analysis
The product contains Acidity Regulators (330 - Citric Acid, 331(iii) - Trisodium Citrate) and a Preservative (211 - Sodium Benzoate). These additives are approved by FSSAI for use within specified limits in carbonated beverages and are generally considered safe for consumption. The primary health concern is not from the additives but the high sugar content.

Marketing Claims
The claims 'No Caffeine' and '100% Natural Flavours' are factually supported by the ingredient list. However, the overall marketing presents the beverage as a simple, refreshing thirst-quencher, which can be misleading as it downplays the extremely high sugar content. This lack of transparency about the primary negative health attribute is ethically questionable.
