How much caffeine

Stronger isn’t always bigger.

Per sip, espresso wins. Per cup, a big cold brew does.

Typical values: USDA (≈63 mg per 1 oz espresso, ≈95 mg per 8 oz brewed); cold brew and instant vary widely. The FDA puts 400 mg a day as an amount not generally linked to negative effects in healthy adults.
