Swap Cream for Milk

Watch the Size

The Middle Ground
Regular (1 cream, 1 sugar) has half the calories of a Double Double. It's a reasonable compromise for taste and health.

About Regular Coffee
In Tim Hortons lingo, a "Regular" coffee means one cream and one sugar — a quintessential Canadian order that strikes a balance between the black coffee purists and the Double Double devotees.
Adding cream and sugar transforms the nutritional profile significantly. A Small Regular jumps from 3 calories (black) to 70 calories, primarily from the cream's fat (4g) and the added sugar (8g). A Medium brings 100 calories, while a Large and X Large deliver 120 and 150 calories respectively.
For context, a Small Regular Coffee has roughly the same calories as a small apple, while an X Large is comparable to a granola bar. The sugar content (8-17g depending on size) is worth noting — the WHO recommends limiting added sugars to 25g per day for women and 36g for men. An X Large Regular uses up about 47-68% of that budget.
The Regular is a great middle-ground option. If you're looking to cut calories but still want some sweetness, consider asking for skim milk instead of cream (saves ~30 calories per serving) or using a sugar substitute. Alternatively, you might order a "1 cream, no sugar" or vice versa to reduce either fat or sugar independently.
Caffeine content is the same as the Original Blend (since the base coffee is identical), ranging from 140mg for a Small to 330mg for an X Large.
