What Is Ski Soda’s Caffeine Content?

Original Ski Soda contains 69 milligrams of caffeine per 12-ounce can. This is considered to be a moderate amount of caffeine. However, a 12-ounce can of Ski Soda also contains 46.5 grams of sugar. To see how the Original compares to other flavors, here is a list of how much caffeine is in each Ski Soda.

  • Original: 69 mg
  • Diet Ski Soda: 17 mg
  • Caffeine Free Diet: 0 mg
  • Cherry: 69 mg
  • Tropical: 20-ounce bottle contains 125 mg

Ski Soda vs Other Leading Soda Brands

Keeping in mind that the original 12-ounce can of Ski Soda contains 69 mg of caffeine, let’s see how it stacks up to other leading soda brands and their 12-ounce size cans.

  • Pepsi: 38 mg
  • Sun Drop Soda: 64 mg
  • Coke: 34 mg
  • Green Cola: 37 mg
  • Shasta Cola 43 mg

As you can see, Original Ski Soda contains more caffeine than every soda, and only Sun Drop comes close. It is still considered a moderate amount of caffeine, so safe to drink if you don’t have a sensitivity to caffeine.

Signs That You Have a Caffeine Sensitivity

If you’ve never consumed much caffeine, or even if you have, it’s possible to develop a caffeine sensitivity. There are a few warning signs to watch out for.

  • Anxiety
  • Headache
  • Heart palpitations
  • The jitters or shakes
  • Insomnia
  • Restlessness
  • An urgent need to use the bathroom

It’s important to note that you might not experience all of these symptoms but still may have a sensitivity. If you think you do, it is best to refrain from drinking anything with caffeine in it. If your symptoms persist, contact your doctor for diagnosis and treatment right away.
