i might be in the minority here but summer is my FAVE time to splurge on starbucks drinks, way more often than i should. i feel like i know how to make / love my hot coffee drinks at home but i don’t love iced coffees at home. so i’ve been getting iced matches or lattes or cold brews at starbucks a little too frequently lately. today i wanted to share with y’all my top 5 summer starbucks drinks i’ve had on regular rotation lately!
before i dive into the drinks, also wanted to share that i found these jeans on the #nsale and they are currently still fully stocked and under $100! i love the relaxed fit and the distressing on them! i’m wearing a size 24 so i’d say they fit true to size! such a good purchase!

okay now for my top 5 summer starbucks drinks! a lot of these are somewhat similar to each other just with a few tweaks here and there!
1. iced brown sugar shaken espresso, but different – typically this drink comes with 3 or 4 pumps of brown sugar syrup and it’s too sweet for me! so i get the iced brown sugar oat milk shaken espresso but i ask for just ONE pump of brown sugar, and then one pump of sugar free vanilla! it’s sweet but not TOO sweet!
2. teddy graham shaken espresso’ – so delicious and around 70 calories! here’s how to order it:
-
- iced shaken espresso, no classic sweetener
- with almond milk
- 2 pumps of sugar free vanilla syrup
- 1 pump brown sugar
- light cold foam (and cinnamon on top if you’re feelin cray!)
3. iced matcha latte the LKS way – starbucks usually does like 4 scoops of matcha in a grande and their matcha has a lot of sugar in it. so here’s how i order mine
-
- grande iced matcha latte with almond milk
- 2 pumps sugar free vanilla syrup
it’s sweet without being too sweet and so refreshing in the summer!
4. grande cold brew coffee with light vanilla sweet cream cold foam + 2 pumps toffee nut. YUM
5. iced shaken espresso with toffee nut – here’s how i like to order mine:
-
- grande iced shaken espresso, no classic sweetener
- with almond milk
- 2 pumps toffee nut
- 1 pump sugar free vanilla
do you have any favorite summer starbucks combinations?! i always love trying new things so comment below and let me know what some of your favorites are!
