Ultra-Processed Food (UPF)

Yes — DoubleShot Espresso is ultra-processed.

Not ideal for everyday use because it contains added flavoring.

This is classified as ultra-processed because it contains natural coffee flavouring, an industrially produced flavoring additive. The other ingredients—milk, arabica coffee, sugar, chicory inulin, and potassium carbonate—do not independently trigger a UPF classification under the stated criteria.

What does "ultra-processed" (UPF) mean?

The classification is based on the NOVA system used by researchers and dietitians worldwide.
