low-sugar

Less sweetener added

Low-sugar describes food or drink with reduced sugar content compared to standard versions: low-sugar cereal, low-sugar jam.

The term implies a deliberate reduction rather than natural absence—a low-sugar soda has been reformulated, while water is simply sugarless.

Marketing regulations vary on how much reduction qualifies, so the label often means "less than usual" rather than a precise threshold.
