Advocaat is an alcoholic liqueur made with eggs, sugar and spirits. The figures here describe samples from different brands. Its energy comes mainly from sugars, alcohol and fat. Per 100ml, it provides 1091 kJ of energy, 28g of sugars, 6.3g of fat and 13g of alcohol. It also contains some protein from the eggs.

The sugar and alcohol content are worth noting for people monitoring their energy intake, as both contribute energy. Alcohol also has effects beyond its energy content, including impairing judgement and coordination. Advocaat contains egg, which is relevant to people with an egg allergy.
