Alfredo Underwood · Answer 1

We know there is 330 mg of caffeine per 16-ounce serving. So if we want 8-ounce servings:

330 mg : 2 = 165 mg

Also we have to consume a maximum of 600 mg.

165 mg * 3 = 495 mg < 600 mg

165 mg * 4 = 660 mg > 600 mg

Answer: Someone could drink 3 full 8-ounce servings in a day and still stay below the limit.
