unsugared

Lacking added sweetness

Unsugared means without added sugar: unsugared tea, unsugared cereal.

The word describes food or drink in its natural state or deliberately prepared without sweetening.

It's interchangeable with sugarless or sugar-free, though unsugared emphasizes that sugar was withheld rather than replaced with substitutes.
