Rated at 1/5 green leaves, the ‘7-Up Zero Sugar Cherry’ is a beverage that earns the lowest possible score on our website due to its composition of ingredients that fail to meet our criteria for cleaner food options. This product is not organic, and it does not use non-GMO ingredients.

The inclusion of Citric Acid, Aspartame, and Acesulfame Potassium, which are considered added sugars, significantly reduces the product’s score.
