Starbucks Iced Espresso Drinks (2026) – Full Menu, Prices & Which One to Order

The Starbucks Iced Espresso menu is one of the most versatile and customizable sections of the entire Starbucks lineup. Whether you want a bold, no-frills shot of espresso over ice or a fully customized iced latte loaded with flavored syrup and cold foam, this category has something for every coffee lover. In 2026, Starbucks expanded its iced espresso offerings with new protein-boosted options and seasonal favorites that have quickly become customer favorites.

What Is Iced Espresso at Starbucks?

Iced espresso drinks at Starbucks are made by pulling fresh espresso shots and combining them with cold milk, ice, and optional syrups or toppings. Unlike Starbucks Iced Coffee, which is brewed hot and then chilled, iced espresso drinks use concentrated espresso shots as the base — delivering a much stronger, more intense coffee flavor in every sip.

The iced espresso category at Starbucks includes straight espresso shots over ice, iced lattes, iced macchiatos, iced mochas, and the popular iced flat white. All of these drinks start with one or more espresso shots, making them a go-to for customers who want a serious caffeine hit alongside their cold drink experience.

Ristretto espresso shots poured over cold whole milk and ice. The flat white uses shorter, sweeter espresso shots and a higher espresso-to-milk ratio than a standard iced latte, resulting in a bolder, more concentrated coffee flavor. See all sizes and pricing on the dedicated Starbucks Flat White Menu.

How to Customize Your Starbucks Iced Espresso Drink

One of the biggest advantages of ordering iced espresso at Starbucks is the level of customization available. Here are the most popular ways customers personalize their iced espresso drinks:

• Extra espresso shots — Add one or two extra shots for a stronger caffeine hit. Each additional shot costs approximately $1.00.
• Milk alternatives — Substitute oat milk, almond milk, coconut milk, or soy milk for the standard dairy milk. See all dairy-free options on our Starbucks Dairy-Free Guide.
• Flavored syrups — Add vanilla, caramel, hazelnut, brown sugar, or any other available syrup. Each pump costs approximately $0.80.
• Cold foam topping — Upgrade your iced espresso with vanilla sweet cream cold foam, chocolate cream cold foam, or salted caramel cream cold foam for a rich, velvety layer on top.
• Sugar-free options — Ask for sugar-free vanilla or sugar-free caramel syrup to reduce the calorie count without sacrificing flavor.

Iced Espresso vs Iced Coffee — What Is the Difference?

Many customers use these terms interchangeably, but they are distinctly different drinks at Starbucks. Iced coffee is brewed hot at double strength using regular drip coffee, then cooled and poured over ice. It has a lighter, smoother flavor and a lower caffeine concentration than iced espresso.

Iced espresso drinks use concentrated espresso shots — a much smaller volume of intensely brewed coffee. This gives iced espresso a stronger, bolder flavor with more caffeine per fluid ounce. If you want a powerful coffee kick in a cold drink, iced espresso is always the better choice. For a comparison of all cold coffee options and pricing, browse the full Starbucks Cold Coffee Menu.
