How to Choose
Chai at Starbucks is black tea brewed with cinnamon, clove and other warm spices. A Chai Latte mixes that spiced tea with steamed milk, so it tastes sweet and cozy with much less caffeine than a coffee latte.
Pick the classic hot or iced Chai Latte for the familiar taste. Choose the Iced Chaider when you want something lighter and fruitier. The specialty chai drinks add a flavored cream cold foam on top, which makes them richer and sweeter, with 310 to 390 calories in a Grande.
Chai is easy to adjust. Ask for fewer pumps to cut sugar, swap to oatmilk or almondmilk, or add a shot of espresso to make a dirty chai.
