What to order at Starbucks

Best bet: Egg bites and an unsweetened drink

Drinks

  • Black coffee or unsweetened iced coffee
  • Unsweetened brewed tea — black, green or herbal
  • Latte or cappuccino with sugar-free syrup and nonfat or almond milk
  • Straight espresso, or an Americano

Breakfast

  • Sous vide egg bites — egg white and roasted red pepper, or bacon and gruyère
  • Oatmeal, unsweetened, with your own nuts or protein
  • Plain Greek yogurt with a side of berries

Snacks

  • Protein boxes — cheese, fruit, eggs, nuts
  • Nuts or string cheese where available

Worth knowing

  • Flavored lattes and Frappuccinos carry a great deal of added sugar
  • Carrying your own stevia or monk fruit makes ordering simpler
