Starbucks drink calories, cup size by cup size.
Starbucks UK publishes a figure for every drink in every cup. This is that table, cut down to the drinks people actually order, in the standard semi-skimmed milk — plus what a milk swap does, and how a Starbucks cup compares with an ordinary café one.
Free on iPhone and Android. No account, and it works with no signal.
In short
From Starbucks UK’s own Autumn 2026 guide, with semi-skimmed milk: a Caffè Latte is 74 calories in a Short, 124 in a Tall, 151 in a Grande and 204 in a Venti; a Grande Cappuccino is 130, a Grande Mocha with whipped cream 281, and a Grande Pumpkin Spice Latte 259. The cup size and the whipped cream move the number more than the drink’s name.
Checked
Hot drinks
Espresso drinks, chocolate and tea lattes.
The Flat White appears in the UK guide in one cup only, listed as Short. The Mocha, White Mocha, Classic Hot Chocolate and Pumpkin Spice Latte include whipped cream as standard.
| Drink (semi-skimmed milk) | Short | Tall | Grande | Venti |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Americano (no milk) | 4 | 7 | 11 | 14 |
| Freshly brewed coffee (no milk) | 16 | 25 | 31 | 39 |
| Flat White | 59 | — | — | — |
| Cappuccino | 64 | 103 | 130 | 169 |
| Caffè Latte | 74 | 124 | 151 | 204 |
| Caramel Macchiato | 103 | 167 | 214 | 273 |
| Mocha, with whipped cream | 146 | 228 | 281 | 358 |
| White Mocha, with whipped cream | 181 | 265 | 345 | 417 |

| Pumpkin Spice Latte, with whipped cream (autumn) | 141 | 205 | 259 | 331 |
Iced
Iced lattes and cold brew.
Iced drinks start at Tall. Ice takes up room in the cup, so an iced Venti can hold barely more milk than an iced Grande.
| Drink (semi-skimmed milk) | Short | Tall | Grande | Venti |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Iced Latte | — | 83 | 128 | 130 |
| Iced Caramel Macchiato | — | 146 | 201 | 221 |
| Cold Brew (no milk) | — | 17 | 23 | 25 |
Blended
Frappuccino, Mini to Venti.
All four come with whipped cream in the standard build.
| Drink (semi-skimmed milk) | Mini | Tall | Grande | Venti |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Coffee Frappuccino | 150 | 212 | 283 | 312 |
| Caramel Frappuccino | 190 | 270 | 346 | 387 |
| Java Chip Frappuccino | 185 | 275 | 378 | 448 |
| Strawberries & Cream Frappuccino | 165 | 229 | 310 | 342 |
The milk
What a milk swap does to a Grande latte.
Whipped cream on its own is listed at 54 calories on a Tall or Grande and 58 on a Venti — about the same as swapping semi-skimmed milk for whole.
| Milk in a Grande Caffè Latte | Calories |
|---|---|
| Almond drink | 82 |
| Skimmed milk | 115 |
| Soya drink | 126 |
| Coconut drink | 139 |
| Semi-skimmed milk (standard build) | 151 |
| Oat drink | 178 |
| Whole milk | 200 |
Read this first
How to read these numbers.
- They are Starbucks UK’s. Every figure is from Starbucks UK’s own Autumn 2026 guide (version 17/08/26), for its standard builds. Other countries’ menus use their own milks, cups and recipes, so their numbers differ.
- Semi-skimmed is the standard build. The guide’s standard drinks use semi-skimmed milk; it lists every other milk too, and the tables here use semi-skimmed throughout.
- We changed nothing. Numbers are copied as published; “—” means the guide does not list that drink in that cup.
- Seasonal drinks come and go. The Pumpkin Spice Latte rows are for September to November 2026.
- Starbucks and Frappuccino are trademarks of their owner. PlateDiary is not affiliated with Starbucks.
Side by side
Compared with an ordinary café cup.
Our own café-drink pages describe a typical cup, often with whole or 2% milk and in US cup sizes, so they usually read a little higher than a UK semi-skimmed Starbucks:
- A Grande Caffè Latte here is 151; our latte page (about 210, one medium café latte, 16 fl oz)
- A Tall Cappuccino is 103; our cappuccino page (about 100, one small café cappuccino, 12 fl oz)
- A Grande Mocha with whipped cream is 281; our mocha page (about 320, one medium café mocha, 16 fl oz)
- A Tall Classic Hot Chocolate is 246; our hot chocolate page (about 380, one 12 fl oz café hot chocolate with whipped cream)
- A UK Grande Pumpkin Spice Latte is 259; the US grande on our pumpkin spice latte page (about 390, one 16 oz grande with 2% milk and whipped cream, as Starbucks makes it)
- A Grande Caramel Frappuccino is 346; our blended coffee page (about 410, one medium blended coffee with whipped cream, 16 fl oz)
In PlateDiary
Keep the cup, not just the number.
Calories in PlateDiary are off unless you turn them on. With them on, snap the table and each dish and drink becomes its own save; a PlateDiary AI read gives each one a rough “~” number you can accept or change, or you can type your own number on any save — say, the chain’s figure from the table above. Portions vary from branch to branch, so treat every number as a guide, and ask a doctor for medical guidance.

A rough number for the dishes you save — only if you want one.
Off unless you turn them on
Calories in PlateDiary are off unless you turn them on. Switch them on and, when PlateDiary AI reads your photo of the table, each dish gets one rough “~” number. Accept it or change it; a number you correct is remembered for that dish. With Calories off, the app looks exactly as it did before.
A read sends small pictures of the cut-out dishes, with the place's name as a hint — never the table photo, faces or your location. Calorie numbers never go to analytics, and nothing is written to a health app. PlateDiary AI starts with free tries; here is how it works.
