    Best and Worst Holiday Coffee Drinks

    Ho, ho, ho-ly crap are those holiday drinks at your local coffee chain bad for you. We know, we all want to indulge in a sugary-sweet holiday drink while we're out shopping for Christmas presents, and sometimes we just need an excuse to feel the holiday spirit. But with all the gingerbread cookies, peppermint bark, pies, hams, - and don't even make us count the wine and beer - the holiday drinks we've come to love and expect every holiday season are just adding onto your daily limit of calories and sugar.

    While we can't tell you that a peppermint mocha is as good for you as a carrot stick, we can tell you that at every coffee shop you visit, there is a healthier holiday option available. With fewer calories, grams of fat, and the true killer of it all, grams of sugar, these drinks can still make your holiday season sweet as can be. - Marcy Franklin, The Daily Meal

      Best Drink at Dunkin' Donuts: Gingerbread Latte
      At 310 calories for a medium-sized drink with whole milk, you're without the added calories of a Peppermint Mocha. But even then, it still has 9 grams of fat. It's best to get a small Gingerbread coffee with no sugar and cream; it's only 90 calories. Moral of the story: Stick to the coffees at Dunkin' if you want a holiday treat, and skip the lattes. ... more
