Calories & caffeine

| Small | ~320 | ~230 | ~96mg |
| Medium | ~460 | ~370 | ~150mg |

Hot versions run higher in calories than iced. Caffeine scales with espresso shots, not flavor.
Golden Eagle vs. Caramelizer: both use caramel, but the Caramelizer is thicker and richer (built on a different breve ratio with chocolate), while the Golden Eagle is lighter and more refreshing. See the Coffee Menu for the full Faves breakdown.
