Share your healthy (preferably zero sugar) Starbucks drinks!
I drink coffee with no sweeter (iced and hot) but it gets boring. What do you order that’s low carb/calorie?
Today I got this - zero carb, zero calorie- sooo good: Grande passion tango iced tea, unsweetened (i.e. no pumps of liquid cane sugar, which they normally add), four pumps sugar free vanilla syrup. So yummy and refreshing.
I also like skinny cinnamon dolce lattes, iced or hot, made with almond milk.
Please share your favorite drinks!

Re: Share your healthy (preferably zero sugar) Starbucks drinks!
I now get all my lattes with Almond Milk because dairy milk contains a lot of sugar
I get a sugar free vanilla latte with almond milk
I would get it iced too but then realize it was cheaper to just ask for an iced coffee with almond milk and 2 pumps of sugar free vanilla
Tastes the same
All their iced teas are yummy too. I like the pineapple one. I add a little stevia
I have to find the thing my DH found on instagram- it's like a chart of how to order keto friendly starbucks drinks. All are sugar free or very low sugar

Same here, if I get milk it’s almond milk now. Who knew that skim milk had so many carbs?
Good idea on the sugar free vanilla iced coffee - you’re right, it’s like half the cost of an iced latte. I should do that for my cinnamon dolce too.

I barely go to Starbucks now that they have done away with the Light Frappuccino mix. If I do go, I get an iced Americano with sugar free hazelnut and almond milk. Or a green unsweetened iced tea with just a splash of lemonade.

I like to get an Americano when I go to starbucks. Feels a little fancier than just coffee, but I also don't go that often so the extra cost vs. just coffee isn't that big of a deal.

Re: Share your healthy (preferably zero sugar) Starbucks drinks!
I don’t go to Starbucks that often, but when I do I get a simple black coffee. I’m like you— no sugar in my coffee. I actually prefer espresso without any sugar.
Sorry, I’m no help.

Me too pretty often. I’m getting bored though. Might try adding some sugar free vanilla or something.

Just got exactly this today with 2 pumps sugar free vanilla.
It's great!
I like the cold brew better because it's more mellow and less acidic on the stomach

I get a skinny caramel Macchiato at Starbucks, doesn't have many calories. But there is sugar in the caramel sauce. I've made it at home with sugar free caramel.

But then you can’t taste the actual coffee. I don’t drink coffee much, but any kind of sugar in it really makes me feel like I’m not drinking coffee.
The artificial sweeteners are the worse. I can taste the saccharine (or whatever they use these days). I seem to be really sensitive to that. They put it in everything. I always make sure to check the labels. Corn syrup even affects my taste buds.

I cant tell you the last time I went to Starbucks.
I have the Ninja coffee bar, and I make my own lattes, and cold beverages, and tastes MUCH better.

Re: Share your healthy (preferably zero sugar) Starbucks drinks!
I recently got hooked to the cold brew iced coffee with 2 pumps sugar free vanilla syrup and I use half and half (I’m on keto so I need full fat). It’s so good!

FYI- starbucks has heavy cream if you ask- it has 0 carbs as opposed to half and half which has some carbs (from the milk part of the half ) And more fat of course.
I know this because of DH.
I always get his with heavy cream- you have to ask for it, they have it behind the counter.

Check out themacrobarista on Instagram - he figures out all the nutrition behind the drinks and how to make them lower sugar/calories/etc without skimping on taste.

My Starbucks sux! They don’t have heavy cream or at least that’s what they tell me. I only go bc I have 4 kids and it’s a drive thru, but Ive started making it at home since I can buy the SF vanilla syrup, cold brew and heavy cream, much better and much cheaper :).
