Truth be told, I love to get my coffee inspiration from @themacrobarista on Instagram! Alex is always sharing macro-friendly versions of popular Starbucks and Dunkin coffees that allow consumers to still enjoy a coffee treat without ingesting all the calories and sugar that usually accompany those favorite orders.

I know it’s not often we combine the words “Starbucks” and “low calorie” in the same sentence, but it is possible to find the lowest calorie drinks at Starbucks and still enjoy the way they taste. I promise.

Did you know that coffee is actually good for you? Enjoying coffee in moderation has been linked to lower levels of depression, improved heart and brain health, and can assist in weight management, too.

Basic Iced Coffee

One of the best Starbucks cold drinks is just ordering a basic iced coffee, leaving the frills and thrills aside.

When I’m not in the mood for something special, and I’m really just wanted a taste of caffeine in a deliciously cold sip, here’s what I ask for:

• Grande Starbucks medium roast iced coffee
• A little bit of almond milk
• Two Stevias

That’s it. I prefer to call it classic over basic. But the point is that it’s tasty, it’s fresh, it’s iced, and it’s low calorie. Essentially it’s a win all around.

Bonus: this also translates to a really good low calorie hot coffee option, too.

Starbucks Dirty Chai Iced Tea Latte

This drink can be ordered hot or cold, but ordering it iced is honestly my favorite way to enjoy this latte!

Here’s what you’ll say when you order:

• Ask for a Grande hot or iced chai tea latte
• Ask to sub almond milk
• Request only one pump of chai
• Ask for two pups of sugar free vanilla syrup to be added
• Add in one shot of blonde espresso

The best part about both these drinks is that they’re dairy free. If you’d rather swap the almond milk for half and half or regular milk you are certainly free to do so! Just keep in mind it may alter the macros slightly depending on the milk or milk substitute you’re using.
