Energy drinks, that is drinks that are high in caffeine and/or other stimulants, will typically be standard rated for VAT. However, no data is available on how much VAT is raised on their sale as this level of detail is not requested on VAT returns.<\/p>
Energy drinks are often also high in sugar. From April this year, the Soft Drinks Industry Levy will take effect, which is forecast to raise nearly £1.5billion over the next five years. This levy directly targets the producers and importers of sugary soft drinks to encourage them to remove added sugar, promote diet drinks, and reduce portion sizes for high sugar drinks.<\/p>
