Summary
This cold brew coffee contains minimal ingredients, primarily water and coffee, which is positive for maintaining a clean label. However, the inclusion of 'natural flavor' introduces a level of processing and lack of transparency that slightly detracts from its overall healthiness. Despite being processed, the absence of harmful additives like artificial sweeteners or seed oils helps maintain a relatively high score.
