Had a friend tell me recently, he regularly downs two Starbucks coffees a day. I have to admit I'll grab one from time to time but for the sake of the people around me, I have sworn off caffeine. So when I do have a jolt, I REALLY feel it -- which got me wondering about just how much caffeine is in some of my favorite beverages. Here's the breakdown:
Coffee, generic brewed 8 oz. 133 (range: 102-200) (16 oz. = 266)
Starbucks Brewed Coffee (Grande) 16 oz. 320
Tea, brewed 8 oz. 53 (range: 40-120)
Vault 12 oz. 71 (20 oz. = 118)
Pepsi 12 oz. 38 (20 oz. = 63)
Coca-Cola Classic 12 oz. 35 (20 oz. = 58)
