Vanilla Nonfat Latte
A Vanilla Nonfat Latte is a popular coffeehouse beverage that combines a shot or two of espresso with steamed nonfat milk and a sweet vanilla flavoring. It originated in Italy but has become a global staple, especially in American coffee chains. The drink is known for its creamy texture and sweet, aromatic profile without the added fat of whole milk.
🍽️ Nutrition at a glance
This beverage is relatively low in fat due to the use of nonfat milk, but it can be moderate to high in carbohydrates, primarily from the natural milk sugars (lactose) and any added vanilla syrup. A typical 16-ounce (grande) serving provides a good source of calcium and protein from the milk, with a calorie range of approximately 150-200 calories, depending on the amount of syrup used.
