Free sugar vs total sugar
Where the sugar comes from: Starbucks Iced Brown Sugar Shaken Espresso (Grande)
| Serving | Total sugar | Free (added) sugar | Naturally occurring | Free sugar in teaspoons |
|---|
| Per serving | 16.2g | 9.2g | 7g | 2.3 tsp |
Made with semi-skimmed milk, about 7g of the sugar in this drink is lactose, which occurs naturally in milk and does not count towards NHS free sugar limits. That leaves 9.2g of free sugar.
Boone derives the lactose figure from the milk protein in each build, at 1.3g of lactose per gram of milk protein, a ratio taken from Starbucks' own unsweetened milk drinks where all of the sugar is lactose.
NHS daily free sugar limits: 30g for adults and children 11+, 24g age 7 to 10, 19g age 4 to 6.

Boone counts every distinct named ingredient on the Starbucks published component lists, including sub-ingredients, and removes duplicates, so milk appearing in three components counts once. Additive class names are dropped and the named substance kept, so "stabiliser: guar gum" counts guar gum once. Raw covers whole foods and basic kitchen staples such as water, coffee, milk, sugar and salt. Manufactured covers substances that only exist as an output of industrial processing. Figures are for the standard build; syrups, cold foams, whipped cream and drizzles added to order are not included. Retrieved 28 August 2026.
