Starbucks Customization Tips:

1. Select your milk: You can choose from whole, 2% milk or nonfat milk, or non-dairy alternatives such as soy, coconut and almond.
2. Choose how many pumps of syrup you want: To lower the points of your flavored beverage, ask for fewer pumps of syrup, or select a sugar-free syrup.
3. Ask for “less whip” or “no whip.”
