The editorial read
Portion: the cited record reports about 50 calories for USDA reference amount at 240 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 21 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 0.5 g protein, 0.7 g fiber, and 31 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is lemon juice from concentrate, canned or bottled, representing 49.5% of the record’s listed input weight. The record contains 4 source-input rows in all. These are provenance for a standardized calculation, not a recipe for your plate.
The reference amount and 1 bottle answer different portion questions. Their values are scaled independently from the same per-100-gram source record.
The household measures attached to this record span roughly 5–126 calories across the listed portions. That is a set of scaled examples—not a confidence interval, a recommendation, or a claim about the full universe of recipes.
Calculated from the smallest and largest usable household measures listed by USDA for this exact FNDDS record; not a confidence interval.
Record-specific decision brief
This analysis belongs to USDA FDC 2710513: “Iced Tea / Lemonade juice drink, light.” It separates gram-weight arithmetic, corpus context, label signals, and record selection so one number does not have to answer four different questions.
01 · Portion arithmetic
For FDC 2710513, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “1 fl oz (with ice)” through “1 bottle (20 fl oz)” are weight scenarios: named measures come from USDA, while percentage labels are transparent arithmetic.
| Scenario | Weight | Energy | Protein | Fiber | Sodium |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 fl oz (with ice)USDA-listed household measure | 23 g | 5 kcal | 0.1 g | 0.1 g | 3 mg |
| 1 bottle (12 fl oz)USDA-listed household measure | 360 g | 76 kcal | 0.8 g | 1.1 g | 47 mg |
| 1 bottle (20 fl oz)USDA-listed household measure | 600 g | 126 kcal | 1.3 g | 1.8 g | 78 mg |
02 · Fixed-weight context
The comparison set contains 45 exact records in the Tea USDA category. Here, “middle half” describes FDC 2710513’s energy position in that corpus—not nutritional quality, desirability, or a health rating.

03 · FDA label lens
At FDC 2710513’s 240 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Vitamin C; the larger tradeoff-side percentage is Sodium. Percentages use FDA label Daily Values, whose general “high” guide begins at 20% Daily Value. This is not an overall score or a personalized target.
Vitamin C17 mg
≈ 19% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Sodium31 mg
≈ 1% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Saturated fat0 g
≈ 0% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
04 · Highest-impact checks
For “Iced Tea / Lemonade juice drink, light,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2710512 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
USDA assigns those measures 23 g and 600 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 5 kcal to 126 kcal.
At an equal 100 g, this record has 13 kcal less calories than “Iced Tea / Lemonade juice drink.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
The source formulation has 4 input rows; Lemon juice from concentrate, canned or bottled supplies 49.5% of listed input weight. Those are standardized formulation inputs, not final plated percentages.

At the fixed 100-gram basis, this record lists 13 less calories and 3 g less carbohydrate than “Iced Tea / Lemonade juice drink.”
Only this record lists Sweeteners, tabletop, sucralose, SPLENDA packets. Those formulation rows identify different source records; they do not prove which input caused a nutrient difference.
2 of the six displayed differences clear the documented materiality screen. It is a reading aid, not a health rating.
Formulation evidence
The formulation rows differ, but the source data do not isolate which component caused any nutrient difference. Input weights describe the standardized formulation—not final plated proportions.
Shared listed inputs: Beverages, tea, black, brewed, prepared with tap water; Lemon juice from concentrate, canned or bottled; Sugars, granulated.
Listed only in this record: Sweeteners, tabletop, sucralose, SPLENDA packets.
Portion evidence
This record’s reference amount is 240 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 bottle (360 g).
The comparison record’s reference amount is 240 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 bottle (360 g).

Uncertainty, made actionable
This is a standardized USDA survey-food profile, not a measurement of every preparation. Actual nutrition can change with drink size, recipe or formulation, milk or cream, sweeteners and add-ins.
For “Iced Tea / Lemonade juice drink, light,” resolve drink size first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.
Resolve drink size only when the meal or its source gives you evidence. If it is unknown, leave the uncertainty visible instead of choosing the most convenient variant.
Prefer a package, menu, or known recipe when it identifies the food more precisely. Otherwise preserve the generic record as an explicit approximation.
Identify the liquid base and fat level when you can. Dairy, plant-based beverages, cream, and water are different record choices—not interchangeable volume adjustments.
Use a label or known recipe when available, because sweetness does not reveal dose. Keep syrups, sugars, and concentrated add-ins separate when the base record does not name them.
How we estimated this
FDC 2710513 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 21 kcal per 100 g becomes 50 kcal at 240 g through nutrient per portion = nutrient per 100 g × portion grams ÷ 100; this page adds no second nutrition estimate.
About the serving label: USDA describes the underlying survey portion as “Quantity not specified.” We display it as a USDA reference amount because it is a database comparison point—not a suggested portion or a claim about what most people should eat.
Data cycle: 2021–2023, published October 31, 2024
