A bottle of pop can have anywhere from 0 to about 120 milligrams of caffeine, based on the flavor, brand, and bottle size. One bottle can feel harmless, yet the caffeine inside it can swing a lot from one pop to the next. A lemon-lime soda may have none at all. A cola may land

One standard prepared mug often has about 7.9g of sugar, while some less-sweet or unsweetened-style sachets come in much lower.
