Whether you enjoy the green siren daily, weekly, or monthly, it can be devastating to your waistline. And now that Starbucks lists calories on their menu boards you can feel the guilt as you order. As a former Barista, I have just the tips to ordering the drinks you love that will keep your mouth happy and your diet consistent.
Clean Eating Starbucks tips:
- Drip Coffee, Americano, & Tea: These are the most obvious calorie conscious drinks with ten calories or less. You can spice these up by adding sugar-free syrups or steamed non-fat milk with a little bit of foam.
- Latte: A tall nonfat latte contains only 90 calories. It is basically a glass of steamed milk with espresso: packed with protein and calcium. Make it a skinny latte with sugar-free vanilla for a real treat.
- Frappuccino: Yes, I said it. A normal Frappuccino is packed with fat and sugar. But the “light” versions are made with a Splenda base and nonfat milk creating a drink with no fat and much less sugar. A 16oz blended Coffee Light Frappuccino contains 110 calories. My favorite is the Caramel Light Frappuccino which only has 140 calories.
- Iced Tea: The normal Iced Teas from Starbucks contain classic syrup or sugar water. Go light by removing the classic and adding your own stevia for sweetness.
- Cappuccino: Espresso, steamed milk, and foam what’s not to love about a cappuccino. Ask for a little cocoa powder on the top for a chocolate treat.
Starbucks doesn’t have to ruin your diet, even if you visit it religiously. Order drinks with non-fat milk, minus the sugar-packed syrups, and hold the whipped cream to save on calories.
