Sugar Content Calculator

BEVERAGE BATCH & SERVING

Find out how much sugar is in your drinks. Enter the sugar per serving and how many servings to see the total in grams, teaspoons, and as a share of the daily limit.

Total sugar (g)
Teaspoons
Of daily value
Teaspoons use about 4.2 g of sugar each. The daily value compares to the FDA reference of 50 g of added sugar per day.

How it works

The calculator multiplies sugar per serving by the number of servings for the total grams, divides by 4.2 to convert to teaspoons, and compares the total to the 50 g daily reference value for added sugar.

Liquid sugar adds up fast. A single 12 oz soda can hold around 39 g of sugar, most of a days limit. Sugary drinks are an easy place to cut back.
