What's in a Sugar-Free Vanilla Protein Latte

Starbucks makes it with espresso, steamed Protein-boosted Milk and sugar-free vanilla syrup. The recipe uses 1 / 1 / 2 / 2 shots and 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 pumps of sugar-free vanilla syrup for Short / Tall / Grande / Venti, per Starbucks recipe data. Starbucks lists whey protein isolate as the added protein.

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 sugar-free vanilla pumps Little change The syrup adds almost no calories
Regular vanilla syrup instead More calories and sugar That is the standard Vanilla Protein Latte
Regular 2% or another milk Not calculated Starbucks doesn't publish the milk portion, so the calculator keeps the listed calories

Starbucks doesn't publish the milk portion for this drink, so the calculator keeps the listed calories if you change the milk.

Syrup pumps and calories

Sugar-free vanilla syrup: 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 pumps (Short / 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.
