Whether you’re looking for a caffeine-free pick-me-up or a sweet treat, there are plenty of kid-friendly Starbucks drinks to choose from. Here are 10 of our favorites:
1. Lemonade
If you order lemonade for your little one at Starbucks, keep in mind that it’s unsweetened. You might want to try it with classic syrup and coconut milk to balance the sourness.
2. Hot Chocolate
Indulge in a steaming mug of hot cocoa with whipped cream and chocolate drizzle—a decadent treat for kids and adults alike. Pair it with two cake pops for a secret discount.
3. Caramel Apple Spice
Capture the essence of fall with this delightful drink. It’s not actual cider, but the blend of fresh apple juice, cinnamon syrup, whipped cream, and caramel is the next best thing.
4. Steamers
For kids who love vanilla, pumpkin spice, or cinnamon, the steamer is the perfect choice. It’s simply steamed milk with any Starbucks flavor syrup of their choice.
5. Creme Frappuccinos
Irresistibly delicious, the creme-based Frappuccinos like vanilla bean are a treat for kids without coffee. Opt for a smaller size to avoid sugar crashes.
6. Blended Strawberry Lemonade
A refreshing blend of frozen lemonade and strawberry slush. This fruity concoction is a summer favorite with an added twist of strawberry juice.
7. Smoothies
Starbucks frozen smoothies, including strawberry and orange mango, are a quick and tasty option when on the go. They all contain a whole banana for added benefits.
8. Purple Drink
A colorful and healthy secret-menu item made with herbal iced tea, soy milk, vanilla syrup, and fresh blackberries.
9. Babyccino
This frothy beverage is suitable for all ages and made with milk, similar to a cappuccino but without the espresso or caffeine. You’ll need to make a special request since it’s not on the menu.
10. Blended Juice Drink
A hidden gem at Starbucks, you can ask the barista to blend any fresh-pressed juice with ice for a refreshing and antioxidant-packed slushie option.
