Hi. 'Too much sugar' is a highly relative sentence. Assuming you are not a diabetic and you are taking this concoction for fitness, calculate your calories required daily online.Then calculate your carbs intake for that calorie level. Roughly it should be around 40% of your daily calories . Divide that number by 4 . eg. 40% of 2000 calories is 800. 800% 4= 200. So 200 gms of carbs is what you need . Stick to that for your fitness goal. You can deviate by around 10%.
