Tips for de-sugaring your favourite fall drinks
Cooler temperatures and shorter days make many people seek comfort. Think a cozy sweater, wool socks and, yes, a pumpkin spice latte.But if it’s your go-to drink in chillier weather, you may be consuming more calories – and sugar – than you realize.
To be fair, 18 g of that sugar is naturally occurring lactose in the milk. Still, the remaining 32 g comes from added sugar in the pumpkin spice sauce, vanilla syrup and whipped topping. Sugar intake guidelines, released by the World Health Organization in 2015, recommend that adults cut sugar to less than 5 per cent of daily calories. For a 2,000 calorie diet, that’s no more that 25 g of added sugar per day .Made with milk or a fortified non-dairy milk, a PSL is an excellent source of calcium. It’s also a decent source of protein if made with milk or soy milk, providing 14 g per 16-ounce serving.
A Grande Starbucks Pecan Crunch Oat Latte delivers 240 calories, 7 g of fat and 27 g of added sugars . The sugar comes from the four pumps of pecan flavoured syrup and the original oat milk.
