A standard 12-ounce (355 ml) can of Coca-Cola contains approximately 39 grams of sugar
. This amount of sugar is roughly equivalent to about 9 to 10 teaspoons of sugar, considering that one teaspoon of granulated sugar equals about 4 grams
. For smaller or differently sized servings, the sugar content scales accordingly-for example, a 330 ml can typically contains about 35 grams of sugar
, and larger bottles like a 20-ounce (600 ml) bottle contain proportionally more sugar (around 64 grams)
. In summary:
- 12 oz can: ~39 grams of sugar
- 330 ml can: ~35 grams of sugar
- 20 oz bottle: ~64 grams of sugar
This sugar content is primarily from high-fructose corn syrup or sucrose, contributing to the calorie content of the drink as well
