Sprite – 250ml

Last but not least, the Sprite 250ml—the world’s most famous lemon-lime “clear” soda. While it competes directly with 7UP, Sprite is often preferred by those who like a slightly more “sharp” and intense citrus bite.

Here is the current status for 2026:

Pricing & Formats

Just like the others, Sprite offers both a budget PET bottle and a premium can in this size.

• Quick Commerce Deals: On apps like Zepto or Blinkit, the 250ml PET bottle is the “bread and butter” of the soda section, frequently sold at a flat ₹19.

• Wholesale Advantage: If you’re stocking up for a small trip, buying a Pack of 8 on BigBasket usually costs around ₹135, which saves you a bit compared to single-unit prices.

Nutrition Facts (Per 100ml)

• Calories: $\approx 48\text{ kcal}$ (roughly $120\text{ kcal}$ for the whole bottle).

• Sugar: $\approx 12\text{ g}$.

• Caffeine: 0% (Caffeine-free).

• Key Ingredients: Carbonated water, sugar, and acidity regulators ($330$, $331$).

Sprite vs. 7UP (The 250ml Showdown)

Since you’ve checked both, here’s how they stack up in this small “on-the-go” size:

• The Taste: Sprite generally has a slightly higher carbonation level and a “crisper” finish. 7UP tends to feel a bit smoother and more “lemony.”

• The Look: Sprite’s green bottle is iconic for that “cool” factor, while 7UP leans into a more natural, refreshing brand image.

• Availability: In India, Sprite (owned by Coca-Cola) and 7UP (owned by PepsiCo) are both available in almost every single shop, so it really comes down to your personal flavor preference!

The “Clear” Benefit

Small bottles of clear sodas like Sprite are often used as “stomach settlers” in many Indian households.

Pro-Tip: If you’re feeling a bit bloated after a heavy meal, a 250ml Sprite with a pinch of salt and black pepper is a classic “Desi” quick fix!
