Calories in Starbucks Blonde Americano run even lower than the original, just 3 in a Short and topping out at 13 in a Venti. Blonde roast espresso is lighter and milder than the standard roast, and that gentler profile carries straight through to the calorie count too.
A Grande comes to 9 calories, with fat at 0.2g, sugar at 0.1g, and protein at 0.5g — essentially rounding errors next to anything with syrup or milk foam involved. The lighter roast doesn’t mean less caffeine, either; Blonde espresso often measures slightly higher in caffeine per shot than dark roast, so you’re not trading energy for a smoother taste. It’s vegetarian with the standard splash of 2% milk, and swapping to a plant milk changes almost nothing here.
If you want the same drink with a bolder, more traditional espresso hit, regular Americano is the one to order, or go with the Blonde Espresso on its own if you don’t even want the water added. Either way, Blonde Americano stays one of the gentlest full-size coffees on the menu.
