Caffeine Amounts In Our Favorite Coffees Completely Visualized

Looks like all your fast food coffees aren’t made equal. When on your morning commute, the right cup of coffee can make all the difference in the world. You definitely want to start your work day as awake as possible.

The Center for Science in the Public Interest garnered statistics from EnergyFiend comparing the milligrams of caffeine that go into the most popular coffee cups. Among the coffees are McDonald’s, Dunkin’ Donuts, Seattle’s Best, Peet’s Brewed Coffee, Deathwish Coffee, Caribou Coffee, Dutch Bros. Coffee and Starbucks.

You should definitely use the chart as a reference point next time you’re trying to make the most of your coffee run.

Compared to the reigning king of caffeine that is Deathwish Coffee, McDonald’s is looking embarrassingly tame.
