What to know about Schweppes Zero Calories Flavoured Sparkling Drink
Zero sugar and zero calories, but two sweeteners
A 600 ml bottle of peach-flavoured sparkling drink built from carbonated water, citric acid (330), nature-identical flavouring, potassium sorbate (202) as a preservative, and two sweeteners, acesulfame potassium (950) and sucralose (955). No percentages are declared. It is sold to people who want a fizzy, fruit-flavoured drink without sugar, or a mixer for home drinks.
What you get is a drink with nothing to count: 0 kcal, 0 g sugar, 0 g fat and 0 g carbohydrate per 100 ml, and 0.3 mg sodium. A 200 ml serve, five to a bottle, has 0.6 mg sodium. What it costs is on the ingredient side: two intense sweeteners, flavouring and a preservative, with no fruit, protein, fibre or vitamins in return.
The front says peach flavoured, and the list agrees: the taste comes from nature-identical flavouring, not from fruit. The pack also says plainly that it contains a non-caloric sweetener. Calling it sparkling water stretches the word a little, since plain water is not what is in the bottle. CleanPlate scores it ED1.
Why Schweppes Zero Calories Flavoured Sparkling Drink scores ED1
Nutrition is an E because every value is zero and nothing earns credit. Ingredients are a D because sucralose, acesulfame potassium and flavouring cost points, and risk is a 1 on 0 g sugar and 0 kcal.
Very low nutrient density
- Protein
- 0 g
- Fibre
- Not declared
- Vitamins and minerals
- None declared
- Energy
- 0 kcal
01 Nutrition density: why E
The drink has 0 kcal, 0 g protein, 0 g carbohydrate and 0 g fat per 100 ml, so there is nothing to earn credit. No vitamins or minerals are declared and no protein source is in the list.
A low nutrition grade here does not mean the drink adds anything harmful in macros. It means it offers no nutrition at all.
Scored on protein, fibre and twelve vitamins and minerals, against the Codex and FSSAI "source" and "high" levels, per 100 g and per 100 kcal. Protein also has to supply at least 12.5% of the calories to count, and 25% for full credit.

02 Ingredient integrity: why D
Carbonated water leads the list, which is a clean start. The cost comes from what follows: acesulfame potassium (950) costs ingredient points, sucralose (955) costs slightly more, and the nature-identical flavouring costs a little too.
Citric acid (330) and potassium sorbate (202) cost nothing in the additive tally. No hydrogenated fat is listed, and no label promise is hollow, so there is no label-integrity penalty.
Scored on how processed the ingredients are, which additives are used and why, and whether the label keeps its promises.
Clean
- Added sugar
- 0 g
- Sodium
- 0.3 mg
03 Load risk: why 1
Sugar, saturated fat, trans fat and energy are all 0 per 100 ml. Sodium is 0.3 mg per 100 ml, a tiny fraction of the high line, so the risk grade sits at the lowest, 1.
Risk looks at sugar, fat, salt and calories only. It does not weigh the sweeteners, which are scored in the ingredient grade.
Scored on free sugar, sodium, saturated fat and trans fat, each weighed by how strong the evidence of harm is.

“ZERO / NO CALORIES”
Energy is 0 kcal per 100 ml. The calorie-free taste comes from acesulfame potassium and sucralose.

“Peach Flavoured”
An honest flavour name: the peach taste comes from nature-identical flavouring, and no peach or fruit juice is listed.
- On the packBe careful
“Sparkling Water Peach”
It is carbonated water with added acid, flavouring, a preservative and two sweeteners, so it is a flavoured soft drink more than plain sparkling water.

- Nature-identical flavouringWorth watching

A preservative that costs no ingredient points, but is worth knowing about in a drink that has a 180-day shelf life.
