Caffeine · Free sugars
- Per serving: about 2 mg caffeine (serving: 1 of 18 servings). Source: 1 g instant coffee/espresso powder × USDA FDC SR Legacy #171893 (instant coffee powder, 3142 mg/100 g); divided by 18 servings (only if you add the optional coffee).
- Scaling: making more servings does not change the caffeine in each serving; what counts is how many servings you drink in a day. 1 serving: 2 mg · 2 servings: 4 mg · 3 servings: 6 mg · 4 servings: 8 mg.
- General guideline: EFSA Scientific Opinion on the safety of caffeine (2015): for healthy adults, up to 200 mg in a single dose and up to 400 mg per day do not raise safety concerns. 1 serving = 1 % of 400 mg. EFSA
