Vegan Starbucks Drinks

There are many things to be grateful for in this world. And, if you’re vegan, one of those includes the fact that coffee is naturally plant-based. It’s literally a bean. But what if you want to get a little fancy? Well, that’s where these vegan Starbucks drinks come into play.

The vegan options at Starbucks are plentiful. There are many hot and cold plant-based drinks and food items that are readily available as-is, or with just a minor substitution.

You can choose between a number of non-dairy milk options, including oat, soy, almond, and coconut. Use them as a substitute in a Frappuccino or add a splash to cold brew. Finally, decisions that don’t stress us out! Please don’t ask us about our dinner plans again.

 

The Best Vegan Starbucks Drinks

1. Iced Brown Sugar Oatmilk Shaken Espresso

Blonde espresso, brown sugar, cinnamon, and oat milk are combined for this refreshing drink. It’s one of the first plant-based drink options to hit Starbucks’ regular menu. We’re sure she’ll have her own Netflix special soon.

2. Matcha Frappuccino

If you’ve had enough coffee but still want an energy boost, reach for this green machine. Just sub the dairy milk for a non-dairy options, ask for no whip, and this delicious concoction is yours.

3. Cold Brew

All Starbucks cold brews and iced coffees are completely vegan on their own. Starbucks Cold Brew is steeped in cool water for 20 hours to provide a smoother flavor, and iced coffee is…well, it gets the job done in a pinch. Add a plant-based milk of choice if you wish. But then you’ll only have two left.

4. Pink Drink

Strawberry Açaí Refresher combined with coconut milk makes for this Instagrammable treat. But it’s not just about looks! We’re sure it’s great at math, too.

5. Iced Pineapple Matcha

This drink is made with matcha green tea, pineapple, ginger, and coconut milk. It’s like a tropical vacation in a cup. Without the sunburn.

6. Mocha Frappuccino

This blend of mocha sauce, coffee, milk, and ice is vegan as long as you order it with a plant-based milk and no whipped cream. It tastes just like a chocolate milkshake with caffeine. Or a blended Fudgesicle. We may need to try one more to know for sure.
