A Grande (16 fl oz) Starbucks Iced Caramel Macchiato has 250 calories, 34 g sugar, 10 g protein and about 150 mg of caffeine. A Tall has 180 calories and a Venti 350. The calories come from 2% milk, vanilla syrup and the caramel drizzle on top.
What's in an Iced Caramel Macchiato
Starbucks pours espresso over vanilla syrup, 2% milk and ice, then finishes it with caramel drizzle. The recipe uses 1 / 2 / 3 espresso shots and 2 / 3 / 5 pumps of vanilla syrup 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 |
|---|---|---|
| Fewer vanilla pumps | Fewer calories and sugar | Sugar-free vanilla is near zero |
| Nonfat milk instead of 2% | Fewer calories and less fat | Protein stays about the same |
| Almondmilk | Generally fewer calories | Less protein |
| Light caramel drizzle | Slightly fewer calories | Small change |
Milk effects show direction only. Starbucks doesn't publish per-milk nutrition for this drink, so the calculator estimates swaps.
Syrup pumps and calories
Vanilla syrup: 2 / 3 / 5 pumps (Tall / Grande / Venti), per Starbucks recipe data. Starbucks doesn't list nutrition per pump on its product pages. The figure most sites quote is about 20 calories and 5 g of sugar for one pump of a standard syrup such as Classic or Vanilla. Treat that as an estimate (unverified), not a Starbucks number. Sugar-free vanilla syrup adds almost no calories. For pump counts across the menu, see our Starbucks syrup calories per pump guide.
Lower-calorie ways to order
- Ask for sugar-free vanilla.
- Switch to nonfat milk.
- Order a Tall: 180 calories against 250 for a Grande.
- Ask for light drizzle.
