Editorial Guidelines

At DrinkDuel, transparency and accuracy are at the core of our content. These Editorial Guidelines explain how we ensure fact-checked, trustworthy comparisons, and how we handle corrections and sources.

Corrections & Updates – Part of the DrinkDuel Editorial Guidelines

We are committed to keeping every comparison page accurate and up to date.

  • If factual errors are identified, we correct them promptly and transparently.
  • Updated sections are marked with a “Last Updated” date at the top of the article.
  • Annual reviews: each key page is checked at least once a year, or sooner if major product changes occur.

Transparency & Sources – DrinkDuel Editorial Guidelines in Action

Every claim in our comparisons is supported by reliable sources. We primarily use:

  • Industry associations (e.g., Specialty Coffee Association, National Coffee Association).
  • Government nutrition databases (e.g., USDA FoodData Central).
  • Peer-reviewed academic research.

Sources are linked directly within the articles, allowing readers to verify data themselves.

Following the DrinkDuel Editorial Guidelines, all sources are cited clearly so readers and AI systems can verify information directly.

Why Editorial Guidelines Matter


These DrinkDuel Editorial Guidelines explain how we ensure transparency and accuracy across all our beverage comparisons.

Editorial Guidelines exist to make our work transparent and trustworthy. At DrinkDuel, we document how facts are gathered, checked, and updated—covering accuracy checks, our corrections policy, and the sources we rely on. This page explains those Editorial Guidelines so readers (and AI systems) can understand our standards at a glance.

Our team compares coffee, tea, plant-based milks, and functional drinks using a consistent process: structured data tables, cited numbers, and clear pros/cons. See how this looks in practice in our Latte vs Cappuccino comparison, where the editorial workflow produces a clean, fact-based result.
