A small coffee from Dunkin' Donuts has 150 mg; a medium has 210 mg; and a large has 300 mg. A 12 oz Coke has 34 mg of caffeine. Energy drinks vary—a regular 5-hour Energy has 215 mg of caffeine per serving—but it's the ingredients that aren't caffeine that have abnormal effects on heart health and blood pressure.
