The Starbucks Frappuccino combines flavored syrups, milk, ice, and powdered coffee, often topped with whipped cream. The Strawberry Crème Frappuccino, despite its fruity appearance, contains significant calories, sugar, and fat, making it a heavy choice. It is similar to a milkshake in taste and texture, totaling about 370 calories, 51 grams of sugar, and 16 grams of fat for a grande size. Alternatives for lighter options include adding strawberry purée to lemonade, iced tea, or Refreshers.
"Sometimes, the appearance of drinks can be misleading ... A common example is the Strawberry Crème Frappuccino from Starbucks. Many people seeking a more delicate option gravitate towards this drink, perhaps perceiving it as a fruit-based beverage. However, the reality is quite different."
"Totaling up to about 370 calories, 51 grams of sugar, and 16 grams of fat in a grande size, the Strawberry Crème Frappuccino from Starbucks doesn't just look like a milkshake - it tastes and feels like one, too."
"There are plenty of other fruity and sweet drinks on the menu to order if you're in the mood for something lighter."
"The former barista recommends adding the strawberry purée to a Starbucks lemonade or iced tea, and it'd taste particularly good added to any one of Starbucks' Refreshers."
