Starbucks Caffeine Content

Starbucks has hundreds of different caffeinated drinks on their menu, so it can be overwhelming trying to figure out how much caffeine is in each one. See below for a list of all the drinks on a standard Starbucks menu.

The list is broken into sections, with drinks ranked from least to most caffeine. All drinks are ranked by caffeine content in grande size (their standard size).

But first, the top 10 drinks that have the most caffeine.

Caffeine in Hot Coffees

Almost all Starbucks espresso-based drinks follow the same recipe: short and tall drinks get one shot of espresso, and grande and venti drinks get two, which is why you see short and tall drinks with the same amount of caffeine, and grande and venti drinks with the same amount. 

Caffeine levels change mostly based on the roast of the beans used. Lighter roasted coffee has more caffeine than darker roasted coffees (caffeine gets broken down during the roasting process). So anything made with Starbucks’ Blonde Roast will have more caffeine.

Caffeine in Cold Coffees

If you’re looking for a caffeine kick, cold brew is the way.

The biggest differences in this section are between cold brew drinks and iced lattes. As mentioned in the previous section, Starbucks lattes follow a formula for how many espresso shots are in a drink. For iced drinks, it’s one shot for a tall, two for a grande, and three for a venti.

Caffeine in Frappuccinos Blended Beverages

Frappuccinos at Starbucks are some of the least caffeinated drinks on the menu. Most of the drinks have about the same amount of caffeine, but some have slightly higher levels due to the chocolate.  

Chocolate has a small amount of caffeine, and adds about 5 mg of caffeine per drink per size. A tall drink with chocolate might add on 5 mg of caffeine while a grande adds 10 mg (this depends on how much chocolate is in the drink). This only applies to regular and dark chocolate since white chocolate doesn’t have any caffeine.
