All The Starbucks Drinks, Ranked From Least To Most Caffeinated

We can all agree that Starbucks is the go-to for morning jump starts and afternoon breaks. There’s one on every corner and it’s (usually) fast and easy to get your fix of anything from coffee to tea to Frappuccinos.

But with scandals surrounding energy drinks and supplements at the center of public discourse, consumers are more conscious of their caffeine intake than ever. According to the Mayo Clinic, the recommended limit for caffeine intake is 400 milligrams (mg) a day for healthy adults. And if you're not careful, you can exceed that amount with just one Venti coffee.

If you want to moderate the amount of caffeine you drink, we studied the nutrition data for the entire Starbucks drink menu and organized it from the least to most caffeinated. To make it easier to compare drinks, we looked at the Grande size of each, which clocks in at 16 ounces. And for certain espresso-based drinks where the sizing system isn't applicable, we selected the standard Doppio, or double shot.

Starbucks clarifies that the caffeine content on their nutrition information is an approximate value, that can change slightly based on many environmental variables. This info is enough to give you a good guide, though, so treat yourself—and caffeinate—accordingly.
