Hot summer days may make you crave a cool treat. One of the quintessential treats of summer is the 7-Eleven Slurpee. Sweet and satisfying, a Slurpee can really hit the spot during this sweltering season. But we all know that liquid calories can sometimes be a shocker. So how many calories do you think an 8-ounce, Coke-flavored Slurpee is going to set you back?
An 8-ounce Coca Cola Slurpee has 65 calories, which may not sound like much, but when is the last time you only slurped 8 ounces? (Note that if you live in Canada, the calorie count would be a bit different because the Slurpees in the U.S. are injected with air.) There are also 18 grams of sugar packed inside that 8 ounces of Slurpee.
Other popular flavors come in at about the same calorie count -- Fanta Wild Cherry has 66 calories per 8-ounce serving, Mountain Dew has 60 and Vanilla Cream has 70. But choose the Crystal Light flavors and you'll cut the calories almost in half (the sugar free Crystal Light Cherry Limeade Slurpee has 30 calories per 8-ounce serving).
