Free sugar vs total sugar

Where the sugar comes from: Starbucks Espresso Macchiato (Double)

ServingTotal sugarFree (added) sugarNaturally occurringFree sugar in teaspoons
Per serving0.9g0g0.9g0.0 tsp

Made with semi-skimmed milk, about 0.9g of the sugar in this drink is lactose, which occurs naturally in milk and does not count towards NHS free sugar limits. Effectively none of the sugar in this drink is free sugar.

Boone derives the lactose figure from the milk protein in each build, at 1.3g of lactose per gram of milk protein, a ratio taken from Starbucks' own unsweetened milk drinks where all of the sugar is lactose.

NHS daily free sugar limits: 30g for adults and children 11+, 24g age 7 to 10, 19g age 4 to 6.
