Knowing the sugar content of drinks can have important health implications. For example, men who drank just one 12-ounce sugary drink a day were 20 percent more likely to suffer a heart attack over a 22-year period than men who did not, according to a Harvard study published in the journal "Circulation." Determining the amount of sugar in drinks can be as simple as reading the nutrition facts label. But if your drink does not have such a label, or if your drink is not labeled for individual consumption, other methods exist to help you determine the sugar content.
