PRET
SOY MILK LATTE REGULAR 330ml, £2.45 Calories 113 Saturated fats 1g Sugars 6g Protein 9.3g PRET uses calcium-fortified soy milk, but apple juice is used to sweeten it. This means you’ll get one-anda-half teaspoons of free sugars per latte, which is less than in the soy lattes from Starbucks, Caffè Nero and Costa, but still a fifth of your daily limit.
RICE-COCONUT MILK LATTE REGULAR 360ml, £2.85
Calories 50 Saturated fat 1.8g Sugars 16.3g Protein 0.8g THIS has the secondhighest sugar content of all the lattes. The combination of coconut and rice milk (made using rice that is soaked and then strained) means that it contains a whopping four teaspoons of naturally-occurring, but ‘free’, sugars.
This constitutes almost half of the recommended daily limit.
The rice-coconut is also unfortified, so it’s not comparable with dairy lattes on calcium content.
The low-protein, highsugar combination is poor when it comes to satisfying hunger.
You can expect to feel a fleeting lift from the caffeine and sugar before hunger quickly kicks in – a result of the sugar causing spikes and then dips, in blood sugar.
