Summer is sadly coming to an end, the evenings are drawing in and Michael Bublé is slowly defrosting ready for Christmas.
And right on cue, it’s almost time that we welcome our favourite winter warmer back into our lives. Yes, Starbucks’ Pumpkin Spice Latte is soon to become a permanent fixture of our morning routine.
The American roastery’s signature espresso and steamed milk with the celebrated flavour combination of pumpkin, cinnamon, nutmeg and clove are like a warm hug on a cold day – especially when topped with whipped cream.
But how many calories are in a Starbucks pumpkin spiced latte? The answer to that is very much dependent on size, so let’s take a look:
Short (8 fl oz) – A short Starbucks pumpkin spice latte contains 210 calories, 25g of sugar and 9g of fat.
Tall (12 fl oz) – It doesn’t take a genius to work out that an increase in size means an exponential increase in calories. A tall Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Latte contains 300 calories, 38g of sugar and 12g of fat.
Grande (16 fl oz) – If you need a larger shot of caffeine, you’ll also need to sacrifice more of your daily intake. A grande Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Latte has 390 calories, 50g of sugar and 14g of fat.
Venti (20 fl oz) – A Veni Starbucks pumpkin spice latte largest offering returns 470 calories, 63g of sugar and 16g of fat.
It’s worth noting the above calorie count doesn’t include the added extras, so if you’re a fiend for toppings, make sure you don’t forget to track them.
