Starbucks Nutrition 2026: Calories, Protein, Carbs & Allergens

This Starbucks nutrition guide puts the whole drink menu on one page: calories, sugar, caffeine and protein for 51 signature drinks, the allergen matrix for the food and bakery case, and the best picks if you want the lowest-calorie, highest-protein or lowest-sugar order. Every figure below comes from Starbucks’ published nutrition data for a Grande (16 fl oz) drink made to the standard recipe, so you can compare drinks like for like before you order.

Basis: Grande (16 fl oz), standard recipe, 2% milk in milk drinks unless the drink is built on another base. Source: Starbucks published nutrition (official nutrition reports). Figures checked October 2026. A dash in the protein column means no protein figure is published for that drink in the data this chart is built from — it does not mean zero protein.

Starbucks Nutrition Facts: Grande Caffè Latte

The Caffè Latte is the Starbucks reference drink — the one most orders are a variation of — so its label is the natural place to start. A Grande Caffè Latte made with 2% milk has 190 calories, 18 g of sugar, 12 g of protein and 150 mg of caffeine. Use the label below as the benchmark, then find your usual drink in the full chart further down.

Most of the latte’s calories come from the milk: 19 g of carbohydrates (18 g of them sugars) and 7 g of fat against 12 g of protein. Switching the milk changes this label more than any syrup does — the same drink built on skimmed milk or oat milk lands at a different calorie count, which is why the chart below sticks to the standard recipe throughout.

Full Starbucks Nutrition Chart: 51 Drinks Compared

Here is every signature drink in one chart. Brewed coffee and tea sit at the bottom of the calorie range — a Grande Earl Grey Tea has 0 calories and a Pike Place Roast just 5 — while the blended Frappuccino drinks top it: the Mocha Cookie Crumble Frappuccino reaches 480 calories and the Caramel Ribbon Crunch Frappuccino carries the most sugar at 60 g. Caffeine runs the other way: the strongest drink on the menu is plain brewed coffee, at 310 mg.

Two patterns are worth knowing. First, the iced version of a drink is usually lighter than the hot one — the Iced Caffè Latte is 130 calories against 190 hot — because the cup holds ice instead of steamed milk. Second, sugar and caffeine barely correlate: the sweetest drinks (Frappuccino line, 45–60 g of sugar) sit in the middle of the caffeine range, while the highest-caffeine drinks have no sugar at all. The four rankings below pull the extremes out of the chart.

Highest Protein Starbucks Drinks

Starbucks publishes a protein figure for a subset of its drinks; of those, the protein line leads by a wide margin. The Iced Protein Matcha carries 36 g of protein — nearly three times the 12 g in a Caffè Latte — because the protein drinks are built on a protein-boosted base. Among the everyday classics, the Caffè Mocha (14 g) and White Chocolate Mocha (13 g) top the list thanks to their milk content. Every protein figure in this ranking is a published one; drinks without a published figure are not estimated or ranked.

Lowest Calorie Starbucks Drinks

If calories are the priority, the answer is the tea and brewed-coffee shelf. A Grande Earl Grey Tea has 0 calories, four brewed and cold coffees sit at 5 calories, and both Americanos come in at 15. The first milk drink on the list, the Vanilla Sweet Cream Nitro Cold Brew at 70 calories, shows how much of a drink’s calories normally arrive with the milk and syrup.

Lowest Sugar Starbucks Drinks

Seven Grande drinks in the chart contain no sugar at all — the brewed coffees, both Americanos, the iced coffee and the Earl Grey Tea — because the standard recipes are unsweetened. The Vanilla Sweet Cream Nitro Cold Brew follows at just 4 g, the lowest of any drink that includes a sweetened component. Everything else in the chart starts at 10 g (the Caffè Misto) and rises quickly once syrups and sauces enter the recipe.

Most Caffeine in a Starbucks Drink

The most caffeinated drink at Starbucks is the simplest one: a Grande Pike Place Roast, at 310 mg — more than the Nitro Cold Brew (280 mg) and well beyond any espresso drink, because a brewed Grande holds far more coffee than a two-shot latte. The three 225 mg drinks (Caffè Americano, Iced Caffè Americano and Iced Shaken Espresso) are the strongest of the espresso-based options. For scale, all eight drinks below exceed the caffeine of a typical energy drink.

Starbucks Allergen Information

The matrix below covers the core drinks plus the food and bakery range, using the same published allergen data as our Starbucks menu page. Milk and wheat appear in almost every bakery item, the Banana, Walnut & Pecan Loaf contains tree nuts, and the Pink Drink contains tree nut (coconut) even though its recipe has no dairy. A cell marked n/a means that allergen is not stated in the item’s published ingredient description — not a guarantee that it is absent. Starbucks prepares everything on shared equipment, including steam wands, blenders and ovens, so it cannot guarantee any item is completely allergen-free. If you have a serious allergy, always confirm with the store before ordering.

Packaged snacks carry their own manufacturer labels, so check the wrapper before eating. The two Perfect Bar peanut butter bars contain peanut, and the SkinnyDipped almond snacks and the KIND nut bar contain tree nuts (almond).

Best Starbucks Picks by Goal

Best Low-Calorie Picks

For a drink that barely registers, order the Earl Grey Tea (0 calories) or any brewed coffee (5 calories for a Grande Pike Place Roast, Cold Brew, Nitro Cold Brew or Iced Coffee). If you want something that still feels like a treat, the Refreshers are the sweet spot: the Strawberry Açaí and Mango Dragonfruit Refreshers are 90 calories each, and the Iced Shaken Espresso — a genuine coffee drink — is 100 calories with 14 g of sugar. Prices for all of these are on the Starbucks menu with prices.

Best High-Protein Picks

The Iced Protein Matcha is the standout at 36 g of protein and 300 calories — the only drink in the chart above 14 g. Below it, the milk-heavy classics do quiet work: a Caffè Mocha has 14 g of protein (and 370 calories), a White Chocolate Mocha 13 g, and the everyday Caffè Latte 12 g at a much lighter 190 calories, which makes the latte the best protein-per-calorie trade among the published figures. The rest of the protein line is built for the same purpose — see how those drinks are priced and flavoured in the menu guide, and check the Starbucks secret menu for protein-style customisations.

Lowest-Sugar Picks

Seven drinks in the chart have 0 g of sugar as standard: Pike Place Roast, Caffè Americano, Iced Caffè Americano, Cold Brew, Nitro Cold Brew, Iced Coffee and Earl Grey Tea. If you want a flavoured drink without the syrup load, the Vanilla Sweet Cream Nitro Cold Brew (4 g of sugar, 70 calories) is the lowest-sugar flavoured option in the chart, and the Caffè Misto is next at 10 g. Watching sugar is also where the deals help least and knowledge helps most — our Starbucks coupons and deals page tracks the offers that apply to these standard drinks.

Conclusion

Starbucks nutrition is a tale of two menus: brewed coffee and tea at 0–15 calories with up to 310 mg of caffeine, and the blended, sweetened drinks at 300–480 calories with up to 60 g of sugar. The chart above lets you place any Grande drink on that scale before you order — and if protein is the goal, the Iced Protein Matcha (36 g) and the humble Caffè Latte (12 g at 190 calories) are the two smartest orders on it.
