The recipe uses 2 / 3 / 4 pumps of dark caramel sauce for Tall / Grande / Venti, per Starbucks recipe data.
Milk and customization swaps
Swaps are shown as the direction of change against the standard recipe. Starbucks' product pages don't publish per-drink numbers for each swap, so check the Starbucks app or our calculator for an estimate of your exact order.
| Swap | Effect on calories | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| No whipped cream | Fewer calories and less fat | The quickest cut |
| Skip the drizzle and crunch topping | Fewer calories and sugar | Less texture |
| Fewer dark caramel pumps | Fewer calories and sugar | Less caramel flavor |
| Nonfat or 2% milk instead of whole | Fewer calories and less fat | Whole milk is the default |
Syrup pumps and calories
Dark caramel sauce: 2 / 3 / 4 pumps (Tall / Grande / Venti), per Starbucks recipe data. Starbucks doesn't publish nutrition per pump of sauce, and sauces are generally heavier than syrups, so treat any per-pump figure as an estimate (unverified). For pump counts across the menu, see our Starbucks syrup calories per pump guide.
