Iced London Fog Latte: The Rainy-Day Classic, Summer Edition

$5.15 – 100 Calories

$5.75 – 140 Calories

$6.45 – 210 Calories

The rainy-day classic learned to handle summer. The Iced London Fog Latte pours strong-steeped Earl Grey over ice with vanilla syrup and cold milk, keeping the bergamot-citrus soul of the hot version at 40 fewer calories per Grande. With about 40 mg of gentle caffeine and a flavor that reads floral-creamy rather than sweet, it is the sophisticated iced drink for people who find Refreshers too fruity and iced lattes too heavy.

What Is the Starbucks Iced London Fog Latte?

Earl Grey tea bags steeped double-strength (so the ice does not wash them out), shaken with vanilla syrup and ice, then finished with a pour of cold 2% milk that clouds through the amber tea. The bergamot citrus and subtle lavender of the Teavana blend stay front and center, and the vanilla rounds it into cream-soda-adjacent territory without burying the tea.

It is the official iced sibling of the London Fog Latte and shares the iced tea latte shelf with the Iced Chai and Iced Matcha on the Cold Tea menu.

Iced London Fog Latte Ingredients

Core Ingredients

  • Teavana Earl Grey tea bags, double-steeped
  • Vanilla syrup (3 pumps in a Grande)
  • Cold 2% milk
  • Ice

Allergen Information

Contains DAIRY in the standard build; all plant milks swap free. Gluten-free and nut-free. Bergamot is a citrus oil, worth noting for rare citrus allergies.

Flavor Profile and Taste Review

Cold changes the balance beautifully: the bergamot reads brighter over ice, the vanilla holds it together, and the milk pour creates that marbled fog effect before settling into creamy amber. It drinks like a floral cream soda made by adults, and the finish is clean rather than syrupy. Fans of the hot version tend to convert to iced through summer and never fully return.

Who Will Love It

  • Hot London Fog loyalists facing 90-degree weather
  • Anyone wanting an elegant iced drink under 150 calories
  • Earl Grey drinkers curious about iced formats
  • The 3 pm crowd needing gentle caffeine only

Who Might Not Like It

  • Bold flavor seekers; this is subtle by design
  • Anyone expecting coffee-level caffeine
  • Floral-note skeptics; bergamot is the whole drink

Is the Iced London Fog Latte Worth It in 2026?

At $5.75 for a Grande it undercuts every espresso-based iced latte while delivering a flavor nothing else on the cold menu offers. The honest caveat mirrors the hot version: it is easy to make at home for pennies. The counter is the double-steep and the shake, which most home versions skip and always regret. Worth it as the rotation pick that keeps the cold menu interesting.

Iced or hot Fog?

Weather decides. The iced runs brighter and lighter; the hot version is the comfort ritual. Same soul, different seasons.

Iced Fog or Iced Chai?

The chai brings double the caffeine and 100 more calories of spice; the Fog stays delicate. Energy needs pick chai; elegance picks Fog.

How to Order an Iced London Fog Latte

In-Store Order

“Grande Iced London Fog.” Add “one pump vanilla” for drier, “with oatmilk” for the best plant version, or “extra tea bag” for stronger.

Mobile App Tips

Under Cold Teas, Tea Lattes. Pumps, milk, and ice level all adjust in-app, and tea lattes earn the same Stars as pricier drinks.

Best Customizations (Popular Orders 2026)

The One-Pump Fog

Single vanilla pump: sugar drops to about 10 g and the Earl Grey leads completely. The regulars’ default.

The Oat Fog

Oatmilk swap, free: the malt note against bergamot is the best version of this drink, full stop.

The Vanilla Sweet Cream Fog

Sweet cream cold foam on top (about $1.25): turns it into a dessert-adjacent layered drink that still lands under 250 calories.

The Double Bag

Extra Earl Grey bag ($0.80): for anyone who found the standard steep too gentle over ice.

Is the Iced London Fog Latte Healthy?

Pros

  • 140 calories for a Grande, light for a flavored latte
  • Low caffeine works around sleep schedules

  • Minimal protein compared to milk-heavy drinks

Ways to Make It Healthier

  • Tall size delivers the experience at 100 calories

Best Food Pairings

Earl Grey and baked goods remain married: the Petite Vanilla Bean Scone or Blueberry Streusel Muffin from the bakery menu are ideal, and the lemon loaf doubles the citrus story.
