I don’t really consider instant cappuccino to be “coffee”, but I digress… Instant cappuccino does have caffeine in it: anywhere between 30-100 mg per serving. Note: calorie estimates are from the USDA. Added sugar or syrups? PILE ON THE CALORIES!Īre calories necessarily bad? Of course not, if you’re drinking and eating in moderation and have room for the calories, enjoy! But if you’re watching your weight and food intake, you need to take this into consideration. Most coffee shops won’t serve you 6 ounce cappuccinos, though, as their sizes will be more like 10-12 ounces, in which case you can double to 60 calories straight to 120. Note: If you tend to drink 16 ounce coffees(or any other large serving), you’ll need to multiply the figures provided here accordingly.Ĭompare that with cappuccino: along with the espresso shot, which is 1-2 calories, you’re adding 4 ounces or so of steamed milk, so the total calories comes out more to around 60 per single serving. If you decide to add one tablespoon of 2% milk(steamed milk, of course) and one teaspoon of sugar, you’re looking at 25-26 calories per cup. There’s just no doubt here – and this is especially true if you’re buying the stuff from fast food coffee chains.ĭrip coffee is usually enjoyed black, in which case, you’re looking at just 1-2 calories per 8 ounce cup! What about cappuccino calories?Ĭappuccino has more calories than drip coffee, period. If you were to use enough coffee grounds for just one shot of espresso and pulled 5 shots from it, you’d have a very diluted beverage.īut if you pulled 5 shots from 5 servings of coffee grounds, you’d get the 400mg of caffeine. It also depends on the amount of coffee grounds that you use. The same volume of drip coffee gets you just 160mg. If you were to drink the same volume of cappuccino or espresso – almost 5 shots to get to 8 total ounces, you’d have consumed a whopping 400mg of caffeine. One cup of drip coffee(or filter/french press/what have you) is 8 ounces and contains 160 mg of caffeine.
