The composition of Lucozade Alert Cherry Blast is carefully designed to balance flavour, energy, and functionality. The main ingredients include carbonated water and sugar, providing the drink’s familiar fizz and sweetness. Cherry juice from concentrate (2%) offers a fruity, authentic taste, while citric acid and sodium lactate enhance its tangy profile and preserve the drink’s stability. Caffeine (0.03%) is included as a natural stimulant, complemented by sweeteners such as acesulfame K and sucralose for added sweetness without excess calories. The vibrant colour comes from natural extracts of carrot and blackcurrant. The drink is also fortified with antioxidant ascorbic acid and niacin (vitamin B3), supporting the body’s natural energy metabolism.

Lucozade Alert Cherry Blast contains a source of phenylalanine, which means it is unsuitable for individuals with phenylketonuria (PKU). With a caffeine content of 32mg per 100ml—equating to 160mg per 500ml bottle—the drink is not recommended for children, pregnant or breastfeeding women, or anyone sensitive to caffeine. It is important to consume it responsibly and as part of a balanced diet and active lifestyle. While it does not contain artificial colours, the presence of sweeteners may not be suitable for all dietary preferences. Always check the label for any additional allergen information and consume in moderation.
