What sizes are available?

Starbucks offers the brown sugar oat milk shaken espresso latte in three sizes; Grande (16 ounces), Venti (24 ounces), and tall (12 ounces). This drink has very high amounts of caffeine since it is made with more espresso than other lattes offered at the coffee house. Therefore, to get a slightly high caffeine content, I recommend you go with a tall since it is made with two shots of espresso and has 150 mg of caffeine. Though that is still high for such a small drink, it is not in excess. However, if you are addicted to high amounts of caffeine, you can enjoy this espresso beverage in either a Grande size or a Venti, as they have high caffeine amounts.

Caffeine information

The caffeine content in Starbucks brown sugar oat milk shaken espresso latte is so high! A Grande serving of this latte has a whole 255 mg of caffeine. Unlike most Grande serving lattes made with two shots of espresso, Starbucks takes this espresso beverage a notch higher and makes it with three shots of espresso. With just a cup of this, you can be sure not to even blink throughout the day. However, you should also be aware of the side effects of high caffeine, like anxiety and a racing heartbeat. Therefore, if you have an underlying condition, consult your doctor before jumping into a larger serving size of the brown sugar oat milk shaken espresso offered at Starbucks.

So, what does Starbucks brown sugar oat milk shaken espresso taste like?

Delicious! Honestly, you cannot pinpoint a particular flavor in this drink as all the ingredients are shaken and mixed ideally to offer a beautifully delicious beverage. If you have this drink for the first time, you will feel the smell of coffee and brown sugar. On having it, the sweet taste of brown sugar is a bit loud, mixed with hints of coffee and a cinnamon finish. Its texture is a bit foamy because of the ingredients being shaken.

Ways to customize a Starbucks brown sugar oat milk shaken espresso latte at Starbucks – Starbucks brown sugar oat milk shaken espresso latte variations

My favorite part of ordering a drink at Starbucks is customizing it to meet my preferences. The first variation of this drink is to have it blended instead of shaken. To order your drink blended, ask your barista to blend all the ingredients instead of shaking them.
