Calories in Starbucks Cortado come to 49 for the one size this drink is served in — Cortado doesn’t come in Tall, Grande, or Venti like most of the menu, since it’s meant to be a small, concentrated pour.
That single-size format is the whole point of a Cortado: equal parts espresso and steamed milk, built to be strong but compact rather than diluted down the way a larger latte would be. At 49 calories total, it’s one of the lightest true espresso-and-milk drinks on the menu simply because there’s so little of it.
For milk-specific versions with the same single size, check lactose-free, low-fat, or semi-skimmed milk.
