Standard Lucozade Energy and Lucozade Sport variants are free from animal derivatives and are generally considered halal. However, some Lucozade flavours have used E120 (carmine — derived from cochineal insects), making those variants haram. Because the full range is not consistently certified and formulations change, the overall brand verdict is Mushbooh — check each flavour individually.

McCoy's (KP Snacks) meat-named flavours contain no actual meat — the verified current range is labelled suitable for vegetarians.
