How many calories are in an Arizona Green Tea?
A tall 23 fl oz can of Arizona green tea carries 224 calories, and the drink itself runs 30 calories per 100 g. That is a light beverage poured into a very big container: the same tea in an 8 fl oz cup is 78 calories. Almost all of the total is sugar.
You'd need to walk about 45 minutes to burn the 224 calories in one tall 23 fl oz can (747.5 g).

Arizona green tea quick facts
The row behind this page is SR Legacy 171883, "Beverages, tea, green, ready to drink, ginseng and honey, sweetened". That is the exact recipe in the can people are holding: brewed green tea sweetened with sugar and honey and flavored with ginseng, not the generic sweetened iced tea entry. USDA's Branded database has no label row for the drink itself, so the numbers here come from that generic composition record rather than from a scanned package.
The serving column is the whole tall can, because that is how the drink is bought and finished. At 23 fl oz it weighs about 747.5 g, which is our own arithmetic from the USDA 100 g figure, not a USDA serving.

| Total fat | 0.18 g | 1.3 g | 2% |
| Saturated fat | 0 g | 0 g | 0% |

Two rows you would expect on a package are missing here: added sugars and trans fat. The SR Legacy edition of this record does not publish either value, so we leave them out rather than estimate them. Cholesterol is 0 mg and potassium is 37 mg per can, both trivial. Caffeine is not published in this record either, so this page puts no number on it.
US servings from one cup to the 23 oz can
| Serving | Weight | Calories |
|---|---|---|
| 1 oz | 28.4 g | 9 kcal |
| 1 cup, 8 fl oz | 260 g | 78 kcal |
| 1 can, 16 fl oz | 520 g | 156 kcal |
| 1 bottle, 20 fl oz | 650 g | 195 kcal |
| 1 tall can, 23 fl oz | 747.5 g | 224 kcal |
| Per 100 g | 100 g | 30 kcal |
The 8 fl oz cup at 260 g is USDA's own household measure. The can, bottle and 1 oz rows are our own arithmetic from the USDA 100 g figure, scaled by volume.
This is where most people mislog the drink. A tall 23 fl oz can is 2.875 cups, so a nutrition panel written per 8 fl oz serving is describing just over a third of what is in your hand. Multiply by three and you land slightly past it. The honest number for a can you open and drink is 224, not the per-serving figure on the side.
The 16 fl oz can is the tidiest one to log: 520 g is exactly two 8 fl oz cups, so 156 calories, no arithmetic needed. The 20 fl oz bottle sits in the middle at 195. Between the smallest can and the tall can there is a 68-calorie gap for what looks like the same drink.
Diet and unsweetened green tea versions
Ready-to-drink green tea is not one food. USDA keeps five separate records for it, counting the one in this can, and they span the whole range from 30 calories per 100 g down to zero.
| Version | Per 100 g | Typical serving | Calories |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sweetened, no honey | 27 kcal | 1 cup (270 g) | 73 kcal |
| Diet, zero sugar | 4 kcal | 1 cup (269 g) | 11 kcal |
| Unsweetened | 0 kcal | 16 fl oz (473 g) | 0 kcal |
| Citrus diet with vitamin C | 1 kcal | 1 cup (265 g) | 3 kcal |
Plain sweetened green tea is 27 calories per 100 g against 30 for the honey and ginseng recipe. Three calories per 100 g sounds like nothing, and per cup it is: 73 against 78. Across a tall can it becomes about 22.
Diet green tea is the big swing. At 4 calories per 100 g, the same 747.5 g can comes to about 30 calories, which is 194 fewer for an identical volume of drink and about 7.0 g of sugars instead of 51.4 g. That is our own arithmetic from the USDA 100 g figure.
Unsweetened ready-to-drink green tea is a flat zero: no calories, no sugar, no carbohydrate. It is the only version on this table that is genuinely just tea. The citrus diet record with added vitamin C is 1 calorie per 100 g, close enough to nothing that a cup rounds to 3.
Sugar and carbs are the only rows that move
Look down the % Daily Value column and one number stands out. Carbohydrate at 19% is the only entry in double digits. Fat is 2%, sodium 1%, saturated fat and fiber and protein are all zero. This is a drink made of water and sugar with tea in it.
Of the 53.5 g of carbohydrate in a can, 51.4 g is sugar and none of it is fiber. The FDA sets the Daily Value for added sugars at 50 g, but USDA's record does not split total sugars from added sugars, so we cannot tell you what share of that reference one can uses. What we can say is what is measured: 51.4 g of total sugars per can, 17.9 g per cup.
The Dietary Guidelines for Americans point out that sweetened beverages are one of the largest single contributors of added sugars in the US diet, and a 23 fl oz can is a good illustration of the mechanism. Nothing about the drink is calorie-dense. The container is just large, and liquid sugar arrives without protein or fiber to slow it down, which is why a can rarely feels like the 224 calories it is.
If you are watching sodium, this is a non-issue: 15 mg per can, about 1% of the day.
How does Arizona green tea compare?
| Ready-to-drink green tea | Per 100 g | US serving | Calories |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ginseng and honey, sweetened | 30 kcal | 1 tall can (747.5 g) | 224 kcal |
| Plain sweetened | 27 kcal | 1 cup (270 g) | 73 kcal |
| Diet | 4 kcal | 1 cup (269 g) | 11 kcal |
| Unsweetened | 0 kcal | 16 fl oz (473 g) | 0 kcal |
Our take: the honey and ginseng recipe is the heaviest of the four per 100 g, but only by 3 calories over plain sweetened tea, so the recipe is not what makes the can expensive. The container is. If you want the drink and the calories both, buy the 16 fl oz can and stop at 156. If you want green tea and nothing else, the unsweetened record is a true zero and the diet one is close, and either lets you drink as much as you like without doing any math at all.

Arizona green tea FAQs
How many calories are in a 23 oz Arizona Green Tea?
224 calories for the full 23 fl oz can, which weighs about 747.5 g. USDA's record for ready-to-drink green tea sweetened with ginseng and honey lists 30 calories per 100 g, and the can weight is our own arithmetic from that figure. Sugar accounts for nearly all of it.
How many calories in a can of Arizona Green Tea?
It depends on the can: 156 calories for a 16 fl oz can, 195 for a 20 fl oz bottle and 224 for the tall 23 fl oz can. All three come from the same 30 calories per 100 g, scaled by volume. The gap between the smallest and the largest is 68 calories.
How much sugar is in Arizona Green Tea?
51.4 g of total sugars in the 23 fl oz can, or 6.87 g per 100 g. A single 8 fl oz cup is 17.9 g. USDA's SR Legacy record does not break out added sugars separately, so this page reports total sugars only and does not estimate the added share.
How many calories in Arizona Green Tea Zero?
About 30 calories for a 23 fl oz can of the diet version, which USDA lists at 4 calories per 100 g. One cup is 11 calories. Swapping the sweetened can for the diet one takes 194 calories off the same volume of drink and leaves about 7.0 g of sugars.
How many carbs are in Arizona Green Tea?
53.5 g of carbohydrate in the 23 fl oz can, which is 19% of the Daily Value, from 7.16 g per 100 g. There is no fiber in the drink, and 51.4 g of that 53.5 g is sugar. An 8 fl oz cup holds 18.6 g of carbohydrate.
How many calories in a 16 oz Arizona Green Tea?
156 calories for a 16 fl oz can, about 520 g of drink at 30 calories per 100 g. That is exactly two 8 fl oz cups, and it carries 35.7 g of sugar. The weight is our own arithmetic from the USDA 100 g figure rather than a USDA serving.
Is Arizona Green Tea healthy?
30 calories per 100 g makes it a light drink by volume, but the 23 fl oz can delivers 51.4 g of sugar with no fiber and no protein. Our position: treat it as a sweet drink rather than as tea. If you want green tea for the tea, the unsweetened version is 0 calories.
Is Arizona Green Tea good for weight loss?
224 calories a can is snack-sized, and it arrives with no protein and no fiber, so it does little for fullness. If you want the flavor for fewer calories, the diet version works out to about 30 calories a can and unsweetened ready-to-drink green tea is 0. That is the swap we would make.
