Source: Milkshakes and lattes to face sugar tax in UK – BBC News
Pre-packaged milkshakes and coffees that are high in sugar will be hit with an extra tax from 2028, after the health secretary announced he was extending the tax on fizzy drinks to include milk-based products.
Wes Streeting told Parliament he was also lowering the threshold at which the tax applies from 5g to 4.5g of sugar per 100ml, in an effort to tackle childhood obesity.
