Frequently Asked Questions
Here are answers to some FAQs we've received from customers since launch.
1. How much sugar is in one serving of your drink?
Answer: The lime flavor has about 7 grams. The cranberry has about 9 grams. We use agave-sweetened tonic water and pure juice so no sweeteners or added sugar!
2. How much caffeine is one serving of your drink?
Answer: In one serving, 8 fl oz, there's about 2 shots of espresso, packing a fair punch of energy but not too much to make you jittery. (FYI, this is the amount you're getting in a mixed Starbucks drink).
3. How do you sell Fizzy Bean?

4. How did you come up with the idea for this drink?
Answer: We didn't! Fizzy Bean was inspired by a creation from Sweden. The origin story goes that at a restaurant staff party, someone mixed cold tonic water and espresso, with some sugar syrup, and it was a big hit! Then, some people from that party who ran a coffee shop in Oslo, Norway, added the coffee tonic to their menu. It was an overnight sensation.
5. Why should I drink a coffee tonic? How's it different from other cold coffees?
Answer: If you're looking for the satisfaction of a cold, fizzy beverage combined with light energy boost from premium coffee, we're for you! Fizzy Bean is a perfect pick-me-up whenever you need it throughout the day, especially on hot summer days. Compared to nitro and cold brew coffee, our coffee tonic has less caffeine, so you avoid feeling jittery. If you're into mixed drinks with milks and sweeteners, you'll be glad to know that our coffee tonic is low on sugar - no sugar added and uses tonic that's agave-sweetened.
