Espresso calories and nutrition facts
Espresso: 9 kcal per 100 g, protein 0.12 g, fat 0.18 g, carbs 1.7 g. Typical serving (30 g): 3 kcal.
Espresso is made by forcing hot water through finely ground, tightly packed coffee at high pressure, which gives a short, intense shot topped with golden crema. A 30 ml single shot has only about 3 kcal, so even a double hardly counts. In Italy, where it’s simply un caffè, the teaspoon of sugar many people stir in adds more calories than the coffee itself.
