Calories in Starbucks Espresso Macchiato come to just 6 for the single Short size it’s served in — a shot of espresso “marked” with a small spoon of milk foam, which is what “macchiato” means in Italian.
That’s barely more than plain Espresso at 4 calories, since the foam on top is just a touch of milk, not a full pour. Fat sits at 0.2g and carbs at 0.7g.
For a double-shot version, Espresso Macchiato Doppio runs a bit higher, and for more milk with the same espresso base, a Cortado is the next step up.
