Starbucks Iced Vanilla Cream Protein Latte - Nutrition, Prices March 19, 2026

Q: Which one has more protein?

The regular Iced Vanilla Protein Latte actually edges out slightly with 29g of protein in a Grande, compared to 26g in the Iced Vanilla Cream Protein Latte. That’s because the protein is evenly distributed through the full volume of milk in the regular version, while in the Cream version most of the protein is concentrated in the foam topping.

Q: Can I make the Cream version dairy-free?

You can easily swap the base milk for Almondmilk or Oatmilk , but the Vanilla Protein Cold Foam is made with heavy cream and whey protein isolate , so the topping itself remains dairy-based and can’t currently be made dairy-free.

Q: Is there a sugar-free version of the Cream latte?

Yes! Order the Iced Sugar-Free Vanilla Cream Protein Latte — it uses sugar-free syrup in the base and a special sugar-free version of the Vanilla Protein Cold Foam so you can enjoy the same indulgent layers with fewer calories and no added sugar.

Q: How many espresso shots come in each size?

Standard Starbucks iced espresso rules apply: Venti (24 oz) — 3 shots of Signature Espresso Roast. Tall — 1 shot Grande — 2 shots

The Iced Vanilla Cream Protein Latte is the indulgent star of Starbucks’ 2026 protein lineup.
While the classic Vanilla Protein Latte keeps things streamlined with protein-boosted milk, this “Cream” version is all about luxury and layers. It starts with a smooth iced latte made from bold espresso, sweet vanilla, and chilled milk — then gets crowned with a generous, thick layer of Vanilla Protein Cold Foam.
That signature cold foam alone packs around 15g of protein and delivers a velvety, mousse-like texture that melts into every sip. The result is a stunning layered drink that tastes like a premium vanilla dessert… while quietly fueling you with serious protein power.
Perfect for anyone craving something refreshing, decadent, and actually satisfying.

Frequently Asked Questions – Iced Vanilla Cream Protein Latte

The regular version uses Protein-boosted Milk throughout the entire drink for a consistent protein boost in every sip. The “Cream” version switches to standard 2% milk in the base and instead layers on a thick, luxurious Vanilla Protein Cold Foam on top — giving you that rich, dessert-like finish and a beautiful layered look.
