Yes — Luxury Chocolate Drink is ultra-processed.
Not a great choice for everyday.
This chocolate drink is ultra-processed because it contains dried glucose syrup, an industrially extracted refined sugar, and vanillin, a synthesized flavoring. It also contains soy lecithin, an industrial emulsifier. These ingredients are characteristic of industrial formulations under the NOVA classification. Sugar, cocoa powder, salt, calcium phosphate, and added vitamins do not independently determine the classification.
Other drinks Nomi has checked — these ones aren't ultra-processed.

Yes — Luxury Chocolate Drink by Twinings is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). This chocolate drink is ultra-processed because it contains dried glucose syrup, an industrially extracted refined sugar, and vanillin, a synthesized flavoring. It also contains soy lecithin, an industrial emulsifier. These ingredients are characteristic of industrial formulations under the NOVA classification. Sugar, cocoa powder, salt, calcium phosphate, and added vitamins do not independently determine the classification.
Ultra-processed foods (UPFs) are industrial formulations made with ingredients and additives you wouldn't find in a home kitchen — such as emulsifiers, artificial flavourings, colourings and modified starches. The classification is based on the NOVA system used by researchers and dietitians worldwide.
