3 Insider Tips to Cut Calories at Starbucks

Don’t see your favorite Starbucks drink on the list? No problem! Use these insider secrets to make any drink a little healthier and lower in calories so you can still indulge without breaking the calorie bank:

1. Ask for fewer syrup pumps. Most Starbucks drinks come standard with 3 syrup pumps for a tall, 4 pumps for a grande, 5 pumps for a hot venti, and 6 pumps for an iced venti. An easy way to trim calories and sugar is to ask for fewer syrup pumps in your drink. You can also ask for sugar-free syrup options.
2. Try a dairy alternative. Swapping standard 2% milk with almond, soy, or coconut milk can save on calories and fat for just about any drink. Just keep in mind that the dairy-alternatives at Starbucks are still sweetened, so they will add some sugar to your beverage.
3. Hold the whip. The whipped cream alone for a grande Starbucks drink adds a whopping 100 calories, so you might want to skip it altogether or ask for light whipped cream.
