Answer: <u>It is false</u> that a chocolate drink, such as cocoa, contains as much caffeine as does a cup of coffee.
Explanation:
One 8 ounce cup of coffee that is caffeinated has approximately 95 mg of caffeine. While a 8 ounce cup of hot cocoa has approximately 5 mg of caffeine.
Chocolate milk can contain up to 0-2 mg of caffeine, based on a 8 oz cup. Dark chocolate does contain more caffeine, but not as much as caffeinated coffee.
The only way a hot cocoa can contain more caffeine is if the coffee is decaf.
