Greggs have conducted some research with scientific evidence to back this up that if you drink a coffee then take a power nap - it will make you more alert and productive. This is called the 'Nappuccino'. They have a capacity of 53,620 fluid ounce(a regular Gregg's cup of coffee is 12 fl oz)...so that's 4,468 regular cups of coffee that would fit into one of the giant cups!
