Latte Calories

A latte is a popular coffee drink made with a shot of espresso and steamed milk, topped with a light layer of foam. A standard grande (16-ounce) latte made with 2% milk and no added sugar typically contains around 190 calories. These calories come primarily from the milk, which contributes fat, carbohydrates, and protein. The espresso shot itself contains a negligible number of calories. Understanding the calorie count in a latte is a good starting point for anyone tracking their daily intake using a calorie calculator or calorie counter. It is important to remember this number can change based on how the drink is prepared.

Nutritional Breakdown

Beyond just calories, a 16-ounce latte provides a balanced mix of macronutrients. It contains approximately 12 grams of protein, which is essential for muscle repair and growth, and about 18 grams of carbohydrates, mostly in the form of lactose (milk sugar). The fat content is around 7 grams, with 4.5 grams being saturated fat. For an unsweetened latte, the 17 grams of sugar that are present are naturally occurring from the milk and are not considered added sugars. This makes a plain latte a relatively nutritious beverage choice, especially for its protein and calcium content from the milk component.

Latte Variations

The nutritional profile of a latte can vary significantly. Opting for skim milk reduces the calories and fat content, while using whole milk increases them. Plant-based milks like almond, soy, or oat milk also change the nutritional values; almond milk is often lower in calories, while oat milk can be higher. The biggest impact on calories comes from adding flavored syrups, sugar, or whipped cream. Each pump of syrup can add about 20-30 calories and 5 grams of sugar, quickly turning a simple coffee into a high-calorie treat.
