Is it possible for them not to add any sugar considering the high content of sugars?

I would never trust anything that is sold by "Starve for Bucks". Apart from starving coffee farmers, they use additives to change the taste of the coffee. Coffee should taste of the soil it is grown in (a nice earthy flavour) yet they buy such beans and send them to the Netherlands before packaging them with descriptions such as "citric flavour", "fruity flavour" etc. Coffee is not naturally a citric flavour nor a fruity flavour so what is added? I bet it comes from ICI or Glaxo Smithklein etc.
billie b - the reason the coffee smells "really bad" is that it holds the taste of the poor farmers that have to watch their sons and daughters die from simple to treat diseases / infections because they can't afford medicines such as cheap anti-biotics. Starve for Bucks makes well over 2000% profit on the coffee. Many Ethiopian coffee farmers have to rely on UN food aid and their children are not educated due to a severe lack of money. It costs more to produce the coffee than Starve for Bucks pays for it. Starve for Bucks attempted to associate their name with OXFAM and donated £100,000 last year. However, OXFAM returned the donation and told Starve for Bucks, in no uncertain terms, that they want no association with Starve for Bucks as many Ethiopian Coffee Farmers receive OXFAM Aid. Regaedless of the sugar content, Starve for Bucks coffee holds a very bitter after taste.

not really. thats a total of 14 tsp of sugar! You are going to get a really great sugar buzz. I don't know if they can skip the sugar or not depends on if they make it at time of order or if its premade.I know nothing about starbucks other than that their coffee smells really bad.

in case you get espresso you are able to purely get it decaf and stay faraway from sweetners and cream those upload greater energy. i for my section get all my drinks made with nonfat milk considering the undeniable fact that lowers the energy via lots! additionally don't get any whip on your drink! Whip cream has a ton of energy!

probably not. I would guess the mix comes pre-made and they just blend it with ice, at least that's how they used to do it.
