Of course, after the doppio con panna post I had to do a little google search and guess what I found? According to Starbucks a doppio con panna is only 35 calories! Not bad, considering how it really tastes like so much more of an indulgence than most 35 calorie items. Though really when you break it down, the espresso shots are just hot water pressed through very finely ground coffee beans (0 calories) and then a generous dollop of whipped cream (apparently 35 calories, depending on how generous the dollop is, of course). Score! Remember this next time you decide to cut calories. Some other coffee drink calorie counts:
16 oz Whole Milk Latte: 260 calories
16 oz Non-fat Latte: 165 calories
16 oz Americano: 15 calories
16 oz Drip Coffee: 10 calories
16 oz Whole Milk Mocha w/ Whip: 400 calories (watch out!)
16 oz Whole Milk Cappuccino: 150 calories
16 oz Non-fat Cappuccino: 100 calories
But of course, don't let this information keep you from your regular coffee indulgence, whatever it may be. If anything, savor it even more! Do you have a special coffee drink that you like to treat yourself to?
Until next time,
Coffee Mug
