Starbucks Iced Passion Tango Tea is a caffeine-free iced tea option. It also comes without sugar or calories, but, it still packs in a full amount of flavor. This vegan drink is a combination of hibiscus, lemongrass, and apple. It is shaken with ice until it is refreshingly cold. 

With the sweet and sour fruity flavors, you don’t miss the sugar. However, if you prefer sweet tea, you can ask the barista to add a shot of simple or vanilla syrup to your drink before it is shaken.

A syrup shot may cost a few cents extra. However, it blends much better into an iced drink than sugar packets from the bar. Or, you can try the sweetened Iced Passion Tango Tea Lemonade.

Tips for finding drinks with no caffeine or low caffeine at Starbucks 

When you go to Starbucks, there are plenty of no-caffeine and low-caffeine options to try. However, it can be difficult to sift through all the menu items to find which drinks contain caffeine and which don’t.

Here are some common Q&As to help you navigate the Starbucks menu and find the best drinks for you at Starbucks.

Does decaf coffee contain caffeine?

Most decaf coffees retain some caffeine. At Starbucks, a Grande Decaf Pike Place coffee contains 25 mg of caffeine which is the same amount of caffeine as Regular Grande Hot Chocolate. This is a low-caffeine drink that contains much less caffeine than black tea or regular coffee drinks. To put it into perspective, a regular Tall Pike Place coffee contains 235 mg of caffeine.

Are Starbucks refreshers caffeinated?

Unfortunately, no Starbucks Refreshers are entirely caffeine-free. Starbucks refreshers look like fruit-based drinks, however, these drinks contain green coffee powder. This coffee addition gives Refreshers 45 mg of caffeine for a Grande size. This is still a low amount of caffeine when you compare it to a cup of coffee. 

Which Frappuccinos do not have caffeine?

There are many Frappuccinos at Starbucks. Some contain coffee, and some come without caffeine. If you want a drink without coffee, choose a Creme Frappuccino. These drinks are the non-coffee counterparts of the regular Frappuccino list.

Also, if you want a Frappuccino with zero caffeine, make sure you choose white chocolate additions instead of regular chocolate.

Does tea at Starbucks contain caffeine?

Most teas at Starbucks do contain some level of caffeine. The popular Chai Tea latte and London Fog latte are caffeinated beverages. Also, Honey Citrus Mint, Emperor’s Clouds and Mists contain low levels of caffeine (less than decaf coffee).

The only non-caffeinated teas currently on Starbucks’ menu are Peach Tranquility, Mint Majesty, Iced Passion Tango Tea, and Iced Passion Tango Tea Lemonade.

No caffeine, no problem

If you’re looking for low-caffeine options or going off caffeine altogether, you could brew your own caffeine free beverage. But there are plenty of Starbucks drinks you can try too.

Many frappuccinos, steamers, cremes, Secret Menu, and seasonal drinks come without coffee. You can also ask for low-caffeine options such as decaf coffee drinks, Refreshers, and some teas.

Let us know which non-caffeinated drink you plan to get on your next Starbucks run!
