What the Numbers Say

How It Compares on the Drinks Menu

On protein per dollar the Sprite lags its own menu, 0.0 grams for every dollar against an average of 0.7. If protein is what you are buying with the $2.79 a Sprite costs, the Dave's Triple at 9.0 grams per dollar is the better use of the money.
