Hot Drink Smackdown



Most of us drink it every day. In fact, most of us drink it multiple times a day. No, not whiskey, LiLo, we’re talking coffee. And while a few cups can seem innocuous, the reality is that they may just be destroying your diet.

Coffee is complicated. Some studies have shown that it has negative health effects while others tout its benefits. Kind of like Scott and Kourtney’s relationship. But what we do know is that when you add 15 teaspoons of sugar to the drink (think a Starbucks grande Caramel Frapp) it’s definitely no longer a dieter’s friend.

So as you may have guessed, all coffee drinks are not created equal. As the weather cools off and the drinks get warmer, we thought it would be the perfect time for a coffee, tea, and hot chocolate smackdown!

We rounded up all your favorites and ranked them in terms of least calories to most. There are some definite shockers in here! We learned that so much of the disparity comes from the size, the kind of milk used, and the amount of sugar added to each drink.

So before you order a double, grande, full-fat diet disaster, check out our FFF Hot Drink Smackdown below!
