    I'm a big fan of both the sweet vanilla cold brew and the light caramel frapp with double espresso shots. Those are usually my weekly treat drink of choice and they stay under 150 calories.

    Depends what I'm in a mood for, and how many calories I have budgeted in my day. These calories are all from the Starbucks calculator.
    • Low-cal, "just give me the caffeine and no one gets hurt": Venti (or trenta, if it's *that* sort of day) unsweetened iced coffee, sugar-free vanilla syrup -- 5 calories
    • Low-cal "Ok, probably need some protein": Venti (or trenta) unsweeted iced coffee with skim milk, sugar-free vanilla -- ~40 calories
    • Medium-cal, "Oooh, protein, and coffee, and it'll replace breakfast": Venti iced latte, sugar-free vanilla, skim milk -- 120 calories
    • Medium-cal "it's hot out, and I just finished a run, and UGH": Venti light-coffee frappuccino with sugar-free vanilla and skim milk -- 160 calories
    • High-cal "it's cold, and I'm freezing, and I don't care that this has a boatload of calories, I'll just walk or run or swim and burn it off": Grande white chocolate mocha, skim milk, no whip -- 310 calories

    AKA: You will pry my Starbucks out of my dead hands.

    I get iced coffee with milk and only half the amount of sweetener. I get a venti, 2% milk, 3 pumps of the classic sweetener. It’s 120 calories. But I only go to sbux once a week.

    soy mocha frapp, no whip. However, I don't have it often (not worth the calories).

    My wife likes a "flat white".

    Sometimes I'll get espresso or drip, or an espresso macchiato (not a caramel macchiato!) When I was in Spain I was introduced to cortado which is like a macchiato but with a little more milk, and darn tasty.

    If you like tea, their iced passion tea unsweetened is really good.

    I order tall Americano with 2pump sugarfree cinnamon dolce and light heavy cream(cuz I am doing LCHF). If you doing low fat just add some low fat milk. You don't need to much milk/creamer since Americano is diluted with water. Only about 30 cal if add quarter cup of non-fat milk

    Hey! I love Carmel macchiatos. I've been doing nonfat milk but the calories are still pretty high. Any favorites that are low cal and yummy?

    I agree with whoever said water LOL. They have the best ice water. Below are my go-to's:
    1. Cold brew with skim milk + 2 SF vanilla and 2 hazelnut
    2. Unsweetened iced Passion tea
    3. Hot Americano with skim + 4 SF vanilla, 1 toffee and 1 SF mocha

    I usually get iced coffee with milk or Starbucks double shot on ice (the drink, not just two shots) with a sugar free syrup or half sugar free/half regular.

    Black coffee here most of the time - but iced tea any flavor without sugar is good too! On a splurge green tea latte.

    I recently had a venti blonde caramel macchiato with almond milk and I fell in love. It was 2/300 calories. I was ok with that. It was yummy.

    When it’s not time for my free drink I generally stick to my tall blonde roast....no room :)

    I usually go for either a flat white with almond milk and add splenda--tastes so good! I don't even like almond milk that much, but the flavor is so much nicer than soy or regular milk for some reason. I also like iced americanos with sugar free mocha syrup and splenda added.

    I have never really been a fan of starbucks coffee. I got some gift certificates for Christmas and recently tried their cold brew. It was pretty tasty - and that is what I will get with the rest of the certificates.
