Starbucks Skinny Vanilla Latte Has Protein? Who Knew?

[Soon2BMiniMommy 92]

Here's something that will blow your minds.....SB will ADD a Protein scoop (or 2) to your coffee if you request it!!!! I get it in all my drinks....stats are:

A single shot will add 30 calories, about 6 grams of Protein, 1 gram of soluble Fiber, and zero sugar or artificial sweeteners.

So drink up, all, and add even more protein!!!!

Yes, I can't wait until I can have Starbucks again......I was hooked on the Caramel Frapp Light, Decaf, with 2 scoops of Protein prior to surgery. I'm just over a week post op and looking forward to having this treat maybe in a couple of weeks.

This is excellent news about adding extra protein... gonna try one today. Thanks!

What?! They will add Protein?

I think I will start with the skinny vanilla latte. I haven't had Starbucks in so long I forgot about this! YUM!

I swear you are all talking a foreign language. So, how do I order a Decaf coffee with vanilla flavoring, no dairy and added Protein? I can drink a large McD decaf in about an hour, so I'd want a large. The extra protein sounds great!!

Oh im so going to starbucks once my 7th week approaches which is in 3 weeks! I can not wait!!

Thanks for the info i was totally deleting starbucks out of my daily!

Sleevemaster, I think you would say "I'd like a grande skinny vanilla latte, Decaf, no diary, with an extra scoop of Protein." They may have dairy alternatives, but doesn't the extra Protein come from dairy???

Other Starbucks fans who are more familiar with their menu, please chime in .

Thanks.

I normally drink a grande skinny vanilla latte breve, it's a little lower on the carb count I think but higher on calories - just depends on what you want to cut down on. I try to keep it a weekend only thing but now that it's getting cold, who knows!

9g of protein.....to go along with 13g of sugar. Not bad as a treat I guess.....but hopefully you aren't making this a regular part of your diet.

There is a GOD!!!SCORE!!!!!

As Doggz109 points out, there are 13 (well according to Starbucks Customer Service at 1-800-23LATTE there are 14) grams of carbs in a tall Skinny Vanilla Latte and 100 calories and 9 grams of Protein.

So yeah, don't go crazy, but enjoy if you want. I have one or two a week and I only finish half so I am going to start ordering the "short" instead of the tall, as emily_0192010 mentioned.
