Would you like to know?
Well, guess what, you are going to know how much and you might even cut down on these drinks.
I am going to show you some photos after I have shown you how much sugar is in these drinks.
- Fizzy drinks - 16-20 tsp of sugar
- Sports drinks - 14 tsp of sugar
- Fruit juices - 8 tsp of sugar
- Energy drinks - 15 tsp of sugar
- Flavoured milk - 6 taps of sugar
- Powered drinks - 6 tsp of sugar
I think that is too much sugar for me.
I was really surprised about these because I never knew how much these sugar these drinks had.
Here are some photos that our teachers took of my group and photos of bags with sugar in them.
I was most surprised by the coca-cola one because it was a lot.
We also did an activity with the sugar.
The first thing we did was take turns in picking a drink to do.
The second thing we did was grab some little zip lock bags and start the use a tsp to count how much sugar to put in the bag
The next thing we did was seal them off and wrote on the bags how much tsp we put in that bag.
The last thing we did was place the sugar on the correct drink and leave it there for the teacher to take photos.

Thank you for reading this blog post. If I missed or made a mistake please tell me. Make sure that when you comment you put a thoughtful, helpful, positive and maybe question down.
This is a very detailed blog post. I am sure that many people would learn a lot by reading this post. I can't believe that fizzy drinks have 16-20 tsp of sugar! That is equivalent to heaps of lollies! Has this information influenced any decisions about what/how much sugar you drink?
