UK Expands Sugar Tax to Milkshakes & Lattes

The UK expands sugar tax to include milkshakes, lattes, and more, aiming to tackle obesity and improve child health. The tax will apply to bottled and carton milkshakes, flavored milks, sweetened yogurt drinks, chocolate milk, ready-to-drink coffees, and milk substitute beverages. The move is projected to generate an additional forty to forty-five million pounds annually for the Treasury and has shown promising results in reducing sugar content and obesity levels among young people.The Daily News Now! — Every city.
