新概念雙語：當(dāng)心超高熱量圣誕特飲里的甜蜜陷阱

The festive season is here and the high street coffee chains have lost no time in launching their speciality Christmas drinks。

圣誕節(jié)快要到了，各大主流咖啡品牌都不失時(shí)機(jī)地推出了自己的圣誕節(jié)特飲。

From eggnog lattes and gingerbread cappuccinos to almond hot chocolates and spiced coffees， these tempting drinks may be tasty but a majority contain more than a person‘s daily recommended amount of sugar and fat。

從蛋酒拿鐵咖啡、姜餅卡布奇諾，到杏仁熱巧克力，這些誘人的飲料或許香醇可口，卻大多含有超過人體每日推薦攝取量的糖分和脂肪。

Because despite this being the season for indulgence， a hot chocolate with 661 calories， 24 teaspoons of sugar and more than 12 grams of fat might be going a bit too far。

雖然這是一個(gè)值得狂歡暢飲的時(shí)候，但是一杯熱巧克力就含有661卡路里的熱量、24茶匙的糖分以及超過12克的脂肪，營養(yǎng)實(shí)在是太過了一點(diǎn)。

The large take-away caramel fudge hot chocolate from Costa， made with full-fat milk， comes in at around a quarter of your recommended daily calories。 And it contains four times the advised daily limit of sugar， at a shocking 98.1g。

拿一杯打包的Costa焦糖熱巧克力來說，它由全脂牛奶制成，熱量占到了你每日所需熱量的1/4，而它含有的糖分則高得驚人，有98.1克，達(dá)到每日攝取限量的四倍。

Meanwhile rival Starbucks has a ‘venti’ eggnog latte containing 547 calories。

它的競爭對手，星巴克家的“超大杯”蛋酒拿鐵咖啡也含有547卡路里的熱量。

Bizarrely， fast food chain McDonald’s offers one of the lower-calorie options， with a large toffee latte containing 241 calories and 32.1g of sugar。

不過奇怪的是，麥當(dāng)勞快餐店供應(yīng)的咖啡可謂是一款低熱量的選擇，大杯的太妃拿鐵咖啡只含有241卡路里的熱量、32.1克糖分。
