What's in a Caramel Ribbon Crunch Frappuccino

Starbucks blends coffee, whole milk, ice and Frappuccino syrup with dark caramel sauce, then layers on more dark caramel sauce, whipped cream, caramel drizzle and a crunchy caramel-sugar topping. 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.
