For a larger group that wants traditional lemonade, a 24 × 330ml case offers 24 separate cans and 7.92 litres; Tesco lists 7.9g sugars per can for R.White’s regular lemonade. A six-can diet lemonade pack suits a smaller group seeking 0g sugars per can, while an eight-can Sprite No Sugar pack is a lemon-and-lime alternative rather than traditional lemonade. For hot days, keep water available too: the NHS recommends water to replace fluids lost through sweating and identifies water and milk as the best drinks for children.
Who are the cans for?
The useful pack size depends on how many people want a can, how long the trip lasts and what else they will drink.
Groups sharing individual cans
For a holiday house, picnic or day trip, compare both the number of cans and the total volume. A case can be convenient when many people want separate servings, but it need not be the right quantity for every gathering.
Adults comparing regular and diet drinks
Check the sugars figure for the stated serving size, then read the ingredients if sweeteners or particular flavourings matter to the group.
Families buying for children
Keep lemonade separate from the main drinks plan. The NHS identifies water and milk as the best drinks for children and advises that children avoid sugary fizzy drinks.
What should you check before choosing?
Work out the quantity first, then compare the drink in the can: its sugars, ingredients and flavour may change which pack fits the group.
| Priority | What to check | Your needs |
| Pack quantity |
Compare can count, can size and total volume. Tesco lists R.White’s regular lemonade at 24 × 330ml, or 7.92 litres, and its Diet Lemonade at 6 × 330ml, or 1.98 litres. |
For a larger gathering, I may want a can for each person across several occasions. For a short break, a smaller pack may be enough alongside water and other drinks. |
| Sugars and ingredients |
Read the nutrition figure on its stated basis: Tesco lists 7.9g sugars per 330ml can of R.White’s regular lemonade and 0g per can of its Diet Lemonade. Check the current ingredients and any warning statements as well. |
If the group prefers a diet drink, I want to compare the actual sugars figure without assuming that “diet” means it has no sweeteners. |
| Flavour |
Check whether the product is described as lemonade or a lemon-and-lime soft drink. Coca-Cola GB describes Sprite as lemon-and-lime flavoured. |
When guests expect traditional lemonade, I want the description on the pack to match—not just a citrus flavour. |
| Hot-weather drinks |
Plan for water as well as fizzy cans. The NHS recommends water to replace fluids lost through sweating and identifies water and milk as the best drinks for children. |
For travel or time outdoors, I want water available rather than relying on lemonade for everyone’s drinks. |
Common buying mix-ups
-
Choosing by can count alone
Can size changes the total quantity. Tesco’s 24 × 330ml R.White’s case contains 7.92 litres, while its six-can Diet Lemonade pack contains 1.98 litres.
Count the occasions when people are likely to want a can, then compare total volume with the water and other drinks you plan to bring.
-
Assuming “diet” means there are no other ingredients to check
A 0g sugars figure does not tell you which sweeteners a drink contains. Coca-Cola GB lists sweeteners in Sprite No Sugar.
Read the current ingredient list and warning statements when buying for someone with a particular ingredient requirement.
-
Treating lemon-and-lime as traditional lemonade
Coca-Cola GB describes Sprite as a lemon-and-lime soft drink. That distinction matters if guests have asked for lemonade.
Check the flavour description before buying, particularly if you are choosing one drink for the whole group.
-
Making fizzy drinks the whole hot-weather drinks plan
The NHS recommends water to replace fluids lost through sweating and advises that children avoid sugary fizzy drinks.
Bring water for travel and outdoor activities; treat lemonade as a separate drink choice.

Questions about holiday multipacks
How much drink is in a 24-pack of 330ml cans?
A 24 × 330ml pack contains 24 separate cans and 7.92 litres in total. Tesco lists that format for R.White’s regular lemonade. To choose a quantity, allow for guests who will drink water or something else instead.
Does “zero sugar” mean there are no sweeteners?
No. Coca-Cola GB lists sweeteners in Sprite No Sugar, despite its 0g sugars per 100ml figure. Check the current ingredient list and warning statements when a guest has a specific ingredient requirement.
Should lemonade be the main drink for children on a hot day?
No. The NHS identifies water and milk as the best drinks for children, advises that children avoid sugary fizzy drinks, and recommends water to replace fluids lost through sweating. Bring water even if you are also buying lemonade cans.
