I don’t have the exact numbers but there is an underlying issue with sweetened, unsweetened but sweet drinks. The amount of sugar is unusually high. For example take a sweetened ice tea [2] 500ml and a 500ml smoothie [1]sold in the stores. They have the same amount of equivalent sugars i think its 10%+. If you buy anything with sugar included Or not take a look at how much sugar it has. i point this out because innocent are happy to point out that there are no added sugars yet they end up at the magic number for sugars. I have quit sugar, for more than a decade now. I do eat sweet food but it’s sweetened by me to my taste. I do enjoy fruit which works with my active lifestyle but i believe sugars need to be regulated and this plus taxes on sugar content are a great move. 1: https://www.innocentdrinks.co.uk/things-we-make/our-smoothies/smoothies/strawberries-bananas https://www.innocentdrinks.co.uk/things-we-make/our-smoothie... 2: https://www.tesco.com/groceries/en-GB/products/265633012 https://www.tesco.com/groceries/en-GB/products/265633012
