This lighter choice blends Starbucks' signature espresso with water and ice, finished with sugar-free caramel syrup and that gorgeous protein cold foam on top.\n\nIt's designed for coffee lovers who want something refreshing without the heaviness of milk-based drinks.\n\nA tall size costs £5.50, making it a solid choice for your morning pick-me-up or afternoon energy boost. The drink delivers all the bold espresso flavour you would expect, just with that added protein punch to keep you going.\n\n### LATEST FOOD\n\n\n\n\n  * M&S combines two of its most popular treats for an indulgent first-of-its-kind chocolate bar\n  * Greggs adds new sausage roll flavour to its permanent menu - available this week\n  * Wahaca unveils indulgent new menu featuring fan-favourite chocolate brand - but you must be quick\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nGroup manager of beverage development at Starbucks EMEA, Sam Henderson, said: \"At Starbucks, we are proud leaders in beverage innovation. From pioneering Cold Brew to reimagining iced coffee with our Oat Shaken Espressos and introducing Cold Foam, we're constantly evolving how customers experience coffee.\n\n\"Bringing a great-tasting protein option to our UK menus was a natural next step for the brand, as we continue to develop modern, relevant products that tap into growing consumer demand and reinforce Starbucks position as a pioneer in coffee innovation and quality.\"\n\nThe launch follows the topping's standout success in America. If you want something a bit creamier, the Iced Caramel Protein Latte offers a smoother take on the classic, combining espresso with milk and sugar-free caramel syrup before being topped with that protein foam goodness – all for £5.85.\n\nNot a coffee person? The Iced Vanilla Protein Matcha Latte has you covered at £6.50, blending matcha green tea with milk and sugar-free vanilla syrup.
