We all love Starbucks, I mean who doesn’t.  when you are vegan Starbucks can be a place you might feel, you need to avoid but rest assured you can have vegan food and drinks there.  So, here’s the rules when ordering drinks at Starbucks, first replace all milk with either soy, almond, or coconut milk.  All stores carry these and they can be replaced in every drink. Second, hold all the following ingredients: whipped cream, protein powder, caramel drizzle and java chips.

Drinks at Starbucks sometimes cannot be made vegan and they do contain dairy products.  These drinks are anything with pumpkin spice, white mocha, light Frappuccino and caramel brulee.  For all you mocha vegans’ great news, mocha sauce is vegan, so go enjoy! Most clear syrups are vegan but the sauces are not vegan.
