Online health retailer MuscleFood.com has looked into the calories of some of the most popular drinks and how much exercise we need to do to burn them off.
Darren Beale from MuscleFood, said: “Most of us know what calories are in certain foods, but the vast majority probably don’t think twice before opening that bottle of wine.
“If you’re watching your weight or not you need to be aware of the calories you are consuming everyday, and that includes drinks.
“All of these beverages can be enjoyed in moderation but you should factor in working off the calories you’ve swigged to your work outs.”
A pint of lager was also on the hit list; with the beer-belly beverage containing 330 calories, which would take 20 minutes of HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training) to sweat out.
Non-alcoholic drinks come under fire too, with a latte totalling up to 258 calories, the equivalent to half an hour of jogging.
The worst offender of the group of drinks was a hot chocolate, with an average serving containing 429 calories, the same as a six-mile hike.
The least offending drink of the list was cola but with 143 calories per can you’ll still need to do 70 push ups to work it off.
The below infographic shows the hard to swallow truth:
