Who is buying for?
The right pack size depends on whether you are restocking a shared station, choosing a drink for your own lunch break or serving people with different ingredient needs.
Teams stocking a shared drinks station
Individually enveloped bags make it straightforward to divide a supply between a kitchen and desk drawers. Twinings lists Cranberry & Raspberry in a 12 × 20 trade format; Clipper offers Berry Burst as a 250-envelope catering pack. Check the inner-box arrangement as well as the total count if storage and restocking matter.
Desk workers choosing a caffeine-free drink
Check the declaration on the exact blend rather than relying on the words “fruit tea”. Twinings describes its Cranberry & Raspberry and Lemon & Ginger infusions as caffeine-free, while Clipper makes the same statement for Berry Burst. Brewing directions matter too when lunch is short.
Buyers serving people with different ingredient needs
Read each blend’s ingredients and keep the pack information available where the tea is shared. Liquorice root is listed in Twinings Cranberry & Raspberry and Clipper Berry Burst. GOV.UK says that, when prepacked food contains any of the 14 specified allergens, they must be clearly identified in its ingredients list.
What matters when choosing a pack?
Settle the quantity and flavour first, then check whether the exact blend’s preparation time and ingredients work for the people drinking it.

What to check |
Your needs |
| Pack format |
Check the total bag count, number of inner boxes and whether bags have individual envelopes. Twinings Cranberry & Raspberry is listed by Twinings UK B2B as 12 × 20 envelopes; Clipper Berry Burst is a 250-envelope catering pack. |
I need enough bags to restock a shared station, and an exact 240 matters if our purchasing requirement specifies it. |
| Flavour choice |
Check whether the pack contains one blend or a mix. Twinings’ 20-envelope Fruit Discovery Collection contains four fruit blends; its 240-count Cranberry & Raspberry format commits you to one. |
For a group with different tastes, I would rather try a few flavours before keeping a large supply of one blend. |
| Caffeine declaration |
Read the declaration for the exact product. Twinings describes Cranberry & Raspberry as naturally caffeine-free, and Clipper describes Berry Burst the same way; a fruit-flavoured name alone does not establish caffeine content. |
I want a lunchtime drink whose caffeine status is stated on the pack. |
| Brewing time |
Compare directions for the particular blend. Twinings UK B2B gives 2–3 minutes for its Lemon & Ginger trade product; teapigs specifies at least 3 minutes for Super Fruit, while Pukka advises 5–10 minutes for its herbal infusions. |
If my break is brief, I need a stated brewing time that fits it, rather than assuming every infusion prepares at the same speed. |
| Ingredients |
Read the full ingredient list and any pack warnings before a shared purchase. Twinings lists liquorice root in Cranberry & Raspberry, and Clipper lists it in Berry Burst. Check allergen labelling on the exact pack too. |
Before putting tea out for colleagues, I want the ingredient information to be easy for everyone to check. |
Which brands offer relevant options?
These brand references cover different pack sizes and infusion styles; a brand’s smaller selection should not be mistaken for its 240-bag product.
Twinings
Twinings UK B2B lists Cranberry & Raspberry as 12 boxes of 20 envelopes, an exact 240-bag arrangement for a shared supply.
- The Cranberry & Raspberry product is described as naturally caffeine-free, and its bags are individually enveloped.
- That blend lists liquorice root. Twinings’ smaller mixed collection serves a different purpose from a case of one flavour.
Clipper
Clipper sells Organic Berry Burst as a 250-envelope catering infusion, rather than an exact 240-bag pack.
- Clipper describes Berry Burst as naturally caffeine-free and made with organically grown ingredients.
- Its count exceeds 240 by ten bags, and the ingredient list includes liquorice root.
Pukka
Pukka’s fruit-tea range is relevant when blend choice, wrapped sachets and its stated tea-bag disposal instructions matter more than an exact bulk count.
- Pukka says its tea bags are home compostable and its individual envelopes protect blends from air and moisture.
- Pukka’s general herbal-infusion guidance is 5–10 minutes; check the directions for a particular blend if preparation time matters.
Teapigs
Teapigs Super Fruit is a smaller whole-fruit-style infusion to consider when blend style matters more than buying 240 bags at once.
- Teapigs describes Super Fruit as naturally caffeine-free and specifies a brewing time of at least 3 minutes.
- The cited consumer pack contains 15 tea temples, so it is not an exact 240-bag supply.

Twinings Fruit Selection 20 Tea Bags 40g
A 20-bag selection to consider before committing to a large supply of one flavour. Check the exact pack’s blends, ingredients and brewing directions for the people who will drink it; 20 bags will not serve as a 240-bag restock.

Fruit-tea buying questions
Does “240 bags” mean one box of loose tea bags?
Not necessarily. Twinings UK B2B lists its Cranberry & Raspberry trade product as 12 boxes of 20 envelopes, totalling 240 bags. Check the outer case, inner-box count and wrapping format if you are planning storage for a shared kitchen.
How long does fruit tea take to brew during lunch?
Follow the directions for the exact blend. Twinings UK B2B advises 2–3 minutes for its Lemon & Ginger trade product, teapigs specifies at least 3 minutes for Super Fruit, and Pukka gives general guidance of 5–10 minutes for its herbal infusions. If the break is short, check the intended pack rather than applying another blend’s timing.
Is every fruit tea caffeine-free?
Do not rely on the flavour name alone. Twinings describes its Cranberry & Raspberry and Lemon & Ginger infusions as caffeine-free, while Clipper makes that statement for Berry Burst and teapigs for Super Fruit. Check the declaration on any other blend you are considering.
What ingredient information should an office keep with shared tea?
Keep the exact pack’s ingredient list and warnings accessible so colleagues can check them. Twinings Cranberry & Raspberry and Clipper Berry Burst list liquorice root. GOV.UK says that any of the 14 specified allergens present in prepacked food must be clearly identified in its ingredients list.
Can used fruit-tea bags go in a compost bin?
Check both the exact product’s instructions and what your local collection accepts. Pukka says its tea bags are home compostable, but that statement should not be applied to other brands’ bags, envelopes or packaging.
