'A cappuccino is slightly lower in calories than a latte or flat white at 110 calories and six grams of fat with full cream milk, but contains slightly lower calcium because of the milk/froth ratio,' explains Burrell.Īnd as for the choccie powder on top? That won't reeeeallly hurt you either, nor will adding a couple of grams of sugar which is, as she puts it, 'hardly negligible'. Good: CappuccinoĮssentially, cappuccinos are your run of the mill coffee. In other words, try and enjoy the taste without a spoon or two of the sweet stuff. 'Because these coffees don't contain milk, most people are more liekly to add sugar for taste, which will in turn increase your sugar uptake,' she says. While long blacks and piccolo lattes contain little to not fat due to their low or non-existent milk content, Burrell cautions not to fall into the sugar trap. She also identifies a flat white as a good option, coming in at around 120 calories and seven grams of fat depending on which milk you choose. 'If you can't digest cow's milk, an unsweetened almond milk latte is the next best thing,' Burrell explains. Next best thing: Unsweetened almond milk latte or flat white “A skim latte is a good source of protein and calcium for just 100 calories,” she says, which obviously means you can get your caffeine hit AND one of those healthy looking protein balls, right? Right? Just keep drinking.

“From a health perspective, research has repeatedly shown that drinking coffee can help to lower blood pressure, reduce blood fats and yes caffeine may even promote fat burning,” dietitian and author Susie Burrell tells Mamamia. It’s in this spirit of knowledge that we asked a dietitian to rank our favourite coffee orders from healthiest to unhealthy, separating the cream from the watered down dishwater. We like what we like, and yes, if you accidentally give us soy, we will send it back.īut what if you found out your choice caffeinated beverage is actually kind of bad for you? Would that dangerous information prompt you to throw your barista off guard just as they finally remembered your usual? Coffee orders are one of those things in life most of us don’t like to budge on.
