DD Fitness: The top five highest calorie Christmas coffees

written by Emmet Rushe December 9, 2017
Facebook0Tweet0LinkedIn0Print0

One thing that is very popular at this time of year is the Christmas themed coffees.

It should be said, that most of these aren’t actually coffee and are more of a variety of calorific hot chocolates that sell by the thousands.

So, which of these are the worst for your waistline?

As with anything, it is usually the ones that taste the best.

1. Costa Gingerbread Latte
This is a Christmas favourite. Costa’s Gingerbread Latte.  This is hugely popular over the festive period and for good reason. It tastes great.

But, this does come at a cost, and that cost is almost 400 calories.

323 calories
34.7g of carbs
24.2g of sugar
14.9g of fat.

This is almost a meals worth of calories in one drink.

2. Gingerbread Frappachino
As I only drink coffee in Starbucks I didn’t know there was a difference between a Gingerbread latte and a Gingerbread Frappachino.  Turns out there is almost 100 calories of a difference

The Gingerbread Frappachino comes in at 480 calories while the gingerbread latte comes in at 392 calories.

The carbs and sugar are almost DOUBLE of the latte also.  Coming in at 80g carbs and 79g sugar, compared to 42g carbs and 39g sugar in the latte.

 

3.  Billionaire Hot Chocolate from Costa Coffee
This is going to be very popular this year. Coming in at 528 calories with 63g of carbs and 52g of sugar.  It is a whopper to say the least.

If you are still planning on treating yourself, go for a small to save yourself some calories.

 

4. Café Neró’s Salted Caramel Hot Chocolate.
Again, it’s another seemingly innocent Christmas themed drink and you wouldn’t think it could do that much damage.  Unfortunately, you’d be wrong.

A large version of this comes in at 623 calories and has 82.5g of carbs. 77.7g of this is sugar and has 25g of fat also. While this is higher in calories, there are higher to come.

 

5. Hot chocolate with everything on it.
We look at Costa Coffee Hot Chocolate with Marshmallows and Whipped cream.  Basically, it’s the works.  Everything is on this, the ultimate indulgence, and the calories show this.

This is the largest number of calories out if all the drinks I looked at.

Coming in at;
750 calories
87.4g of carbs
68.5g of sugar
34.2g of fat

If you were to have a Christmas cookie along with this, you’d be taking in over a thousand calories for a snack.

There you have it. The top 5 Christmas themed drinks, that are the highest in calories.

Could you make them fit into your diet?

Anything is possible, but you wouldn’t be indulging too often on this if you were looking for weight loss or to just maintain a bit of control over the festive period.

Again, as with everything moderation is key.
