Calories in Starbucks Mocha with semi-skimmed milk range from 146 in a Short to 358 in a Venti. Semi-skimmed is the British term for the milk US menus call low-fat, and the numbers here line up exactly.
A Grande has 281 calories with 11.2g of fat and 10.9g of protein, matching what you’d get ordering low-fat milk in a US store under a different name.
If you’re comparing menus across the UK and US, this is just a naming difference; the drink itself, and its sibling the whole milk Mocha, stay the same recipe either way.
