How much caffeine does Coke have compared to regular coffee?!


Question:

How much caffeine does Coke have compared to regular coffee?


if you drink two liters of coke per day, that equals to how many regular cups of coffee?


Answers: "Energy drinks" were popularized in the U.S. with the 1997 introduction of Red Bull?, a carbonated beverage from Austria that contains 80 mg of caffeine in every bottle—about the same amount as is found in a cup of coffee. For comparison, classic Coca Cola? contains 23 mg caffeine and Mountain Dew? contains 37 mg caffeine. My best guess, from what I can find on the box, is that they are about the same. Ah, I used to know the exact dosage...

Cup of coffee, depending on the type of beans and brewing process, contains I think 1 gram of caffeine--Coke has about half that much.

Now let's see, a liter is about 64 ounces, and a cup of coffee is about 8 (a nice generous mug). So one liter=8 cups.

I'm calculating that you're getting the caffeine equivalent of eight cups per day from your two liters of coke. That's almost enough :-)
