Thought for the day:
An espresso has less caffeine than a cup of coffee!
- A cup of drip brewed coffee has about 115 milligrams of caffeine,
- an espresso (and percolated coffee) about 80mg,
- instant coffee has about 65mg of caffeine.
- Decaffeinated coffee is not totally caffeine free, containing about 3mg of caffeine.
- A can of Coca-Cola has about 23mg of caffeine,
- Pepsi Cola 25mg,
- Mountain Dew 37mg,
- TAB 31mg.
- Tea has about 40mg of caffeine,
- an ounce of chocolate contains about 20mg.
Huh. And here I thought I was getting MORE caffeine by drinking espresso drinks....must've just been the extra sugar rush from the flavoring.
Caffeinatedly Yours,
