8. Starbucks Mocha Cookie Crumble Frappuccino Blended Beverage

The Starbucks Mocha Cookie Crumble Frappuccino Blended Beverage contains four pumps of mocha sauce, but you can modify the recipe any way that you like, possibly leading to a higher calorie count. Do be aware that changing the recipe on the website does not update the calorie count.

9. Caribou Coffee Turtle Mocha

The Caribou Coffee Large Iced Turtle Mocha is a beverage that would rank higher on this list if it came in a larger container. A standard 20-ounce serving has 550 calories, and there is plenty of fat at 14 grams, 8 of which are from saturated fat.

10. Dunkin’ Signature Latte

The Dunkin’ Signature Latte, Cacao Mocha flavor, has about 520 calories per 24-ounce serving. This drink also contains 18 grams of total fat, with 11 grams of saturated fat.

Detecting the Highest Calorie Coffee Drinks

The coffee drinks with the highest calories are usually fairly easy to spot. They’re often cold beverages in much larger containers than the average hot coffee. They also have whipped cream with a sugary drizzled top that helps make them look more appealing. Many of these drinks also contain flavors, like caramel and mocha, that add calories.

Avoiding the Highest Calorie Coffee Drinks

Most of us enjoy a sweet beverage now and then, and there’s nothing wrong with drinking something on this list. However, if you want to reduce your calorie intake, you’ll need to choose more carefully. We recommend avoiding anything with whipped cream because it’s high in calories and fat. Flavored drizzling can also add calories. Choosing a smaller size can be a great way to decrease your calorie intake, and you can reduce fat by choosing a low-calorie alternative to milk, like almond milk or coconut milk.

Summary

Many of our favorite coffee shops have a beverage or two that are high in calories. These include the Krispy Kreme Mocha Dream Chiller, Baskin Robbins Caramel Cappuccino Blast, and Dunkin’ Frozen Coffee.
