what's the best way to brake?

all of us hear understand the basic coasting to up coming red lights/traffic but what is better - waiting to the last second to brake really hard once and continue rolling or more earlier on tap the breaks moderately 1 or 2 times and more gradually transition into re-accelerating?

In other words I don't like using brakes to slow down which is the biggest point here but when I use them I like to use them aggressively. Is this eco-friendly?
