Black Tea, no sugar calories
per cup, not per 100 g
The short answer
One cup, weighed
3kcal 1 cup — taken as 150 g — has about 3 calories, with 0.2 g protein, 0.6 g carbohydrate and 0.0 g fat. Two come to 6 kcal, three to 9 kcal.
Per 100 g, black tea, no sugar carries 2 kcal మరియు 0.1 g protein.

Serving assumed: 1 cup ≈ 150 g — no milk and no sugar — effectively zero calories. Change the portion and every number below changes with it.

From a table row to one cup
- Read the per-100 g row for black tea, no sugar out of the Indian Food Composition Tables 2017 — analysed on Indian samples, so Indian wheat and Indian milk are not swapped for American ones. It gives 2 kcal మరియు 0.1 g protein per 100 g.
- Weigh what is actually served. This site enters 1 cup at 150 g (no milk and no sugar — effectively zero calories). That weight is the number other calorie sites decline to state, and it is where their answers stop being answers.
- Multiply, linearly, and print the working: 2 × 150 ÷ 100 = 3 kcal per cup. Nothing is rounded up, adjusted or smoothed — two cups are exactly twice one.
- Reconcile the energy against its own macronutrients with Atwater factors on every build. A row more than 15% away from 4P + 4C + 9F (20% above 6 g of fibre) stops the build rather than shipping.

Black Tea, no sugar, entered by the portion

Kept in kilocalories — the "calories" printed on a packet. Carbohydrate is available carbohydrate. Fibre is entered on its own line and is counted in neither the carbohydrate column nor the energy figure.
The 100 g column, kept for the record
Because every other site quotes it, and because you should be able to check our arithmetic against theirs.

What it takes to burn off 1 cup of black tea, no sugar
Minutes of activity for a 70 kg adult to spend 3 kcal, using MET values from the 2024 Adult Compendium of Physical Activities. This is a scale check, not a licence — appetite rises with activity and the two do not cancel neatly.

Where black tea, no sugar sits in an Indian plate
Among the 14 beverages entries on this site, black tea, no sugar ranks ప్రొటీన్కు 13వ (0.1 g per 100 g) and శక్తి సాంద్రతకు 14వ (2 kcal per 100 g). The protein leader in the group is thandai at 4.0 g.
Protein supplies 20% of its energy, which is high for an Indian staple and the reason it keeps you full longer than the calorie count suggests. There is very little fibre here — 0.0 g per 100 g.
A realistic day matters more than any single dish. If you are building a meal, the thali builder adds several foods and their real servings together in one total.
ప్రశ్నలు
How many calories are in 1 cup?
About 3 kcal for 1 cup, taken as 150 g (no milk and no sugar — effectively zero calories). Two come to roughly 6 kcal and three to 9 kcal. Per 100 g, black tea, no sugar carries 2 kcal.
How much protein is in black tea, no sugar?
0.1 g per 100 g, which works out to 0.2 g in 1 cup. That is 20% of the energy in this food, and ranks 13th of 14 in the beverages group on this site.
Is black tea, no sugar good for weight loss?
At 2 kcal per 100 g it is on the lighter side, so portion size is forgiving. The protein share is high enough to be genuinely filling. No single food makes or breaks a diet; the total for the day does.
Why does this differ from other calorie sites?
Two reasons. First, most sites publish a per-100 g figure from a US database and leave you to guess what a roti or a katori weighs; this page states the serving weight up front. Second, home-cooked Indian food varies enormously with oil and ghee — the figures here assume no milk and no sugar — effectively zero calories. A restaurant version can be 30 to 60% higher.

Every food on this site carries this label. What each one means, and how many foods sit behind each, is set out on the method page.
Nutrient values are averages for the stated preparation, based on the Indian Food Composition Tables 2017 (ICMR–NIN) and standard recipe analysis. Energy is reconciled against the macronutrients with Atwater factors on every build. General information only — not medical or nutrition advice. Home-cooked Indian food varies enormously with oil, ghee and portion size; every value here is an average for a stated serving, with the assumption shown.
