GlaxoSmithKline has withdrawn all bottles of Lucozade Sport Lite Summer Berries from retailers and distributors due to “mould growth”.

A small number of the drinks may have an unpleasant smell and taste, the company warned, as a result of the mould. GSK withdrew 500ml bottles and multipacks from shelves last week on a “precautionary basis”.

In a statement on the FSA, the company said none of its other products were affected.

Lucozade Sport Lite was launched in February last year and has annual sales of £10m.
