12 Caffeine-Free Starbucks Drinks Your Kids Will Love

caffeine free drinks at starbucks for kids

You know how it goes - every time you make a family Starbucks run, your kiddos suddenly crave all the coffee. As high-energy as they can be, it’s not exactly ideal to fuel your kids up with caffeine. Luckily, there are tons of caffeine-free drinks at Starbucks available to order super easily. From cold to hot beverages, these 12 Starbucks orders are all great for kids since they’re not loaded with even more energy-boosting ingredients.

Not only are these caffeine-free drinks at Starbucks good for non-coffee-drinking kids, but they’re also convenient to order if you’re expecting or just want to limit caffeine all together – but still crave a yummy sip.

Tips For Ordering Kids' Drinks At Starbucks

Starbucks

  1. Order hot drinks at kids' temperature. This lets the baristas know to make them at a lower temperature than usual, preventing any burns your eager kiddo might get from a hot beverage.
  2. If your kid really wants coffee, you can always order lattes, Americanos, and cappuccinos with decaf espresso. Starbucks also has decaf brewed coffees!
  3. To eliminate a potentially chaotic sugar rush, you can nix the whipped cream on drinks that come with it by default, like hot chocolates and Frappuccinos.

Caffeine-Free Drinks At Starbucks For Kids (& Everyone!)

Starbucks

Lemonade

Tart and sweet at the same time, Starbucks' lemonade is a low-risk drink for kiddos that still delivers that good old summer joy.

Starbucks

Vanilla Bean Creme Frappuccino

This blended frozen Frapp contains zero caffeine while still being a fun cooling option for the summer months. To dial down the sugar content, opt for no whipped cream on top.

Starbucks

Chocolate Milk

Starbucks doesn't necessarily have ready-to-drink chocolate milk on their menu, but you can simply ask for the milk of your choice mixed with chocolate (mocha) syrup to create this classic. You could also sub in any other syrup flavor like Cinnamon Dolce or Hazelnut for somethin' a little different to satisfy your kid's cravings.

Starbucks

Apple Juice

Starbucks' apple juice is surprisingly crisp and tasty, and it's sure to please your little one, especially in the summertime.

Starbucks

Strawberry Creme Frappuccino

For a caffeine-free drink that feels like a total treat (after all, Starbucks runs are all about getting that 'something special'), Frappuccinos are the way to go. There's a few different ones on the menu that don't have caffeine, including this decadent Strawberry Creme Frappuccino! Again, you can ask for it without whip to conserve sugar.

Starbucks

Vanilla Steamer (AKA Vanilla Creme)

The Vanilla Steamer is simply your choice of milk, steamed with vanilla syrup. If your kid's excited to sip, make sure to order it at kids' temperate. You can also swap the vanilla syrup for any other flavor!

Starbucks

Iced Passion Tango Tea

This iced herbal tea is rid of all caffeine, though it doesn't taste like it! It has bright notes of hibiscus, citrus, and apple to soothe any sweet tooth and quickly quench warm-weather thirst.

Starbucks

Mint Majesty

The Mint Majesty is Starbucks' best hot herbal tea. You could also ask for it over ice if your kiddo wants a cold bev.

Starbucks

Blended Strawberry Lemonade

Blended drinks are downright fun to sip on, and this one combines sweet strawberry puree with lemonade to achieve the most perfect flavor balance without any of the caffeine.

Starbucks

Hot Chocolate

Once it starts to cool down, everyone has hot chocolate on the brain. This caffeine-free drink is just steamed milk with chocolate sauce – no coffee here a la Starbucks' Mochas. If it's near Christmastime, order this drink with peppermint syrup to let your kid really savor the season.

Starbucks

White Hot Chocolate

Alternatively, the White Hot Chocolate uses White Mocha sauce to sweeten up every sip.

Starbucks

Caramel Apple Spice

The Caramel Apple Spice combines apple juice along with Cinnamon Dolce and vanilla syrups for a sweetly-spiced sip. It comes with a topping of whipped cream and caramel sauce by default, which you can choose to exclude when you place your order.

Caffeine-Free Cold Drinks

Starbucks

Lemonade

Starbucks' lemonade may be caffeine-free, but it still packs a punch with a zesty sip.

Blended Peach Lemonade

You can also get the Peach Lemonade in a blended version for an icier feel. This caffeine-free Starbucks drink is perfect for summertime.

Blended Strawberry Lemonade

Try ordering this beverage blended for a fun twist on the classic caffeine-free Starbucks drinks!

Milk

This one feels like a no-brainer, but not many people know that you can order straight-up cold milk (whole, 2%, skim, almond, oat) from the Starbucks register. If you're craving it on the go, you know where to find it.

Caffeine-Free Teas

Starbucks

Passion Tango Tea

The Starbucks Passion Tango Tea comes iced and brings forth flavors from apple, hibiscus, and lemongrass for a vibrant (non-caffeinated) bev! You can also order this caffeine-free Starbucks drink with a splash of lemonade for a very juicy balance.

Starbucks

Mint Majesty Tea

The herbal teas at Starbucks are free from caffeine, and our #1 fave is the Mint Majesty. It's used to make the Honey Citrus Mint Tea (AKA the Medicine Ball), providing a nice aromatic mint feel compared to other caffeine-free Starbucks drinks.

Starbucks

Peach Tranquility Tea

The Peach Tranquility is a bit on the sweeter side, and provides a great opportunity to warm up during the colder months.

Caffeine-Free Frappuccinos

Starbucks

Vanilla Bean Crème Frappuccino

Vanilla bean powder, milk, and ice are blended to create this whipped cream-topped Frapp. It's still sweet, but nixes the caffeine entirely.

Starbucks

Caramel Ribbon Crunch Crème Frappuccino

This Frappuccino flavor is similar, except it's quite strong on the caramel, and has some interesting crunchiness to it from the little caramel bits that they shake in. Dessert-y caffeine-free Starbucks drinks FTW!

Additionally, you can order a crème Frappuccino with white chocolate (or more popularly, white mocha). You can also order this pick with regular mocha for a tasty caffeine-free Starbucks drink.

Starbucks

Starbucks

Strawberry Crème Frappuccino

This fruity yet creamy Starbucks caffeine-free drink gives you a dose of strawberry puree and sweet cream.

Grab any kind of milk that Starbucks carries hot for a comforting, caffeine-free sip.

Starbucks

Vanilla Steamer

The Vanilla Steamer is just hot milk with vanilla syrup for that extra dose of flavor.

I'm speaking from firsthand experience when I say writing retreats are the ultimate form of R&R. Sleeping, exploring a place you've never been, and trying new foods help you feel more in touch with yourself, and in turn, more in touch with your creativity. Every single time, I've come away feeling more like myself than I did in the beginning. And in Laura Dern's new romance movie Lonely Planet, she's getting in touch with her writing, herself, and Liam Hemsworth's Owen.

Laura plays Katherine, a writer who hopes a trip to Morocco will dissolve her writer's block and allow her to finish her book. When she meets Owen, who's attending the retreat with his girlfriend, their hesitant friendship turns into a passionate love affair that reminds Katherine what it feels like to really be alive. And the new Lonely Planet trailer totally has me dreaming about my own trip to Morocco!

Laura Dern falls in love twice in the Lonely Planet trailer: once with Morocco and once with Liam Hemsworth. And TBH, both are totally relatable. But while Owen feels constantly put down and misunderstood by his girlfriend, Katherine seems to be carrying some secrets of her own. And it looks like their friendship (and a steamy poolside makeout sesh) are going to help Katherine break down some of her walls.

We love soaking up the chilly fall vibes, but this is going to be the perfect movie for when you're missing summer just a little bit. If anything's going to give Katherine a major break through, it's the bright and colorful streets of Morocco. It's just so good for the soul!

Lonely Planet stars Laura Dern, Liam Hemsworth, Diana Silvers, Younès Boucif, Adriano Giannini, and Rachida Brakni. Watch it when it hits Netflix October 11! See the other October Movies That'll Get You In The Mood For Halloween.

While some people go absolutely bonkers for PSL season, I share the same fervor for Peppermint Mocha season and would argue that it beats out all things pumpkin (don't come for me, PSL nation). Once Starbucks starts serving up their winter menu, I know the holidays are on their way – and there's no better, cozier feeling than that! When I was a barista, I loved that time of year.

Though the coffee chain just dropped their fall menu, I'm already looking ahead to winter. If you're also one to anticipate Starbucks' new menu releases way before they're officially announced, you've come to the right place for the scoop on the upcoming winter lineup. Ahead, find everything you need to know about the 2024 Starbucks winter menu, including my personal predications for what tasty drinks and snacks could be available to order once the PSL hype has died down!

When does the 2024 Starbucks winter menu come out?

Starbucks

The Starbucks winter menu release date hasn't been officially announced yet. Last year, the winter lineup debuted on November 2. In 2022, it hit stores on November 3. Based on this timeline, we anticipate the Starbucks winter menu to be released sometime during the first week of November.

What drinks will be on the 2024 Starbucks winter menu?

Connor Surdi for Starbucks

Again, the exact items for this year's Starbucks winter menu have not been announced yet, though there are some seasonal favorites we definitely expect to return for 2024. The Peppermint Mocha has been a staple in the chain's winter menu since 2022, so we don't see it going anywhere. The Chestnut Praline Latte, Caramel Brûlée Latte, and Sugar Cookie Almondmilk Latte have been featured for the past several years, so it's very possible they could return to menus, too.

Will Starbucks have holiday cups for 2024?

Meredith Holser

Starbucks is known to launch specially-designed holiday cups once their winter menu hits cafes, and we foresee them coming back again this year. In the past, the cups have featured red, green, and white motifs to usher in the holiday season. Over the past two years, the Starbucks holiday cup designs played with illustrations of stars, Christmas trees, swirls, and stripes. The holiday theme has touched both hot and cold cups to suit hot or iced beverages!

My Starbucks Winter Menu Predictions

Starbucks

Peppermint Mocha

This undeniably classic winter menu item blends Starbucks' espresso, mocha and peppermint syrups, and milk to create the perfect sippable start to the holiday season. Like I said before, it's likely not going anywhere! The chain has also served up White Peppermint Mochas before.

Starbucks

Chestnut Praline Latte

Starbucks has served up a ton of nutty flavors like hazelnut and pistachio over the years, but I fear nothing beats this chestnut-praline combo. I probably ordered this sweet drink 15 times last year because it's that yummy. I predict it will return for 2024, but I'll admit that's just be because I'm a huge fan.

Starbucks

Caramel Brûlée Latte

Caramel has been a mainstay in Starbucks' coffee bar for years now – customers seem to really love it! That's why I predict the Caramel Brûlée Latte will make an appearance on the 2024 winter menu. This latte is perfectly toasty and sweet to soothe any seasonal craving (that's not peppermint).

Starbucks

Sugar Cookie Almondmilk Latte

This drink has historically been made with sugar cookie syrup and Starbucks' blonde espresso, which gives a sweeter effect than their regular blend. The most cheerful part of the bev is the red and green sprinkles that get added on top. I want it to return for that reason alone – it's too good!

More Menu Predictions

Starbucks

Since Starbucks debuted their non-dairy cold foam this year, I could definitely see them leveraging the new menu offering for one or two new winter drinks.

In previous years, they've featured flavors like Irish cream and gingerbread, but I'd love to see them venture out into even more wintery, holiday-esque flavors like red velvet, nutmeg, or even cranberry! It'd also be a massive holiday miracle if they decided to re-launch the Eggnog Latte!

Starbucks

As far as snacks go, the Cranberry Bliss Barbetter come back to menus this winter, or else I will riot. The sweet snack boasts a tasty baked layer, cranberries, cream cheese icing, and orange zest to evoke all the seasonal feels. The Snowman Cookie is also a must-have holiday item (and is totally pic-worthy), so I anticipate it to return as well.

Starbucks has surprised fans with a wide range of different snacks throughout the years, like the Sugar Plum Cheese Danish and Chocolate Pistachio Swirl, so I expect a few new never-before-seen bites to join the winter lineup for 2024. Of course, there's gotta be a cake pop in there, too!

Everybody raise your Kir Royale cocktails because Emily in Paris has just been renewed for season 5! (And it looks like she might be trading some of her cocktails for espresso). The official Emily in Paris & Netflix Instagram accounts made the announcement on September 16 with a video of Lily Collins sipping some espresso on a rooftop.

"There's no place like Rome," Lily says with a wink. And, to be frank, we have to agree. I didn't think Emily in Parisseason 4 (or its fashion) could get any better after that Part 1 ending, but taking our favorite Parisians to Rome turned out to be a fantastic move — and not just because it introduced us to Marcello. Here's everything you need to know about Emily in Paris season 5.

Is there a season 5 for Emily in Paris?

Yes, Emily in Paris season 5 is coming to Netflix. "We’re thrilled with the incredible response to this season of Emily in Paris and excited to return for a fifth to continue Emily’s adventures in Rome and Paris!" creator Darren Star tells TUDUM.

The renewal comes as no surprise considering season 4 held Netflix Global Top 10's top spot and received almost 20 million views in four days.

When is Emily in Paris season 5 coming out?

Emily in Paris Season 5 Release Date

We don't have an official release date yet, but considering seasons 1 through 3 only had a year in between them, we could see Emily in Paris season 5 in 2025. (Season 4 suffered a delay due to the 2023 Hollywood strikes).

What is Emily in Paris season 5 about?

Giulia Parmigiani/Netflix

Emily in Paris Season 5 Plot

The Emily in Paris season 4 finale changed everything when Emily decided to stay in Rome and head up an Italian office for Agence Grateau. But, don't worry French fans. Darren Star promises we'll see her in the City of Love again, telling The Wrap, "definitely we’re not leaving Paris behind.”

And after Gabriel realized how much he wants to be with Emily in the season 4 finale, it looks like season 5 will feature even more of the show's signature relationship drama. "I think [Gabriel] realized that he wasn’t even aware of the fact that [Emily] left and how disconnected they’d become," Star continues. "He’s met the guy; he realizes the circumstances under which they met, and I think he just didn’t understand how fast things had moved between them."

But as much as we love to see Emily and Gabriel together, Lily Collins is excited to explore a Emily and Marcello. “Marcello is a whole other adventure that we want for Emily because we ultimately want Emily to be able to have a better work/life balance,” she tells TUDUM. “We want to have Emily be able to smile without condition. We want to see her beyond her vacay mode. And he comes at that perfect time.”

Who's in the cast of Emily in Paris season 5?

Emily in Paris Season 5 Cast

You can expect a lot of your favorites to return for Emily in Paris season 5, like Lily Collins, Eugenio Franceschini, Lucas Bravo, Lucien Laviscount, Ashley Park, Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu, Samuel Arnold, and Bruno Gouery. I hope we see Camille Razat too!

If you ask us, celebrating our favorite TV shows is just as much fun as watching them, and the 2024 Emmy Awards made for such a memorable night. From John Oliver celebrating all our pets to Selena Gomez and Martin Short having the sweetest onstage moment, we can't get enough of all our favorite stars. And that includes the celebrity style! Everybody made the "Best Dressed" this year, but these are the most show-stopping looks we can't stop thinking about.

The Best Red Carpet Outfits From The 2024 Emmys

Ilona Maher in Oscar de la Renta

Ilona is scoring a gold medal with this gorgeous midnight blue gown. I love the way it highlights her shoulders, and how chic the peplum detail is. Plus, the silver jewelry really reminds me of stars in a night sky!

Amy Sussman/Getty Images

Brie Larson in Chanel

Speaking of dark blue moments, this Chanel look is the perfect 'fit for Brie's Lessons in Chemistry nomination. It's giving classy yet creative, which is something Elizabeth Zott would approve of.

Frazer Harrison/Getty Images

Ayo Edebiri in Bottega Veneta

I LOVE this wild black, yellow, and orange pattern (and not just because it's giving The Cheetah Girls). Ayo's strappy black heels and earrings balance out the bold color palette, and loose waves keep the look from being too done up.

Frazer Harrison/Getty Images

Nicola Coughlan in Prabal Gurung

The statement-making, sassy, no-apologies vibe of this look is giving me MAJOR Lady Whistledown vibes. And Dearest Reader, what else is there to say?

Amy Sussman/Getty Images

Kristen Wiig in Oscar de la Renta

Kristen's gown is a lesson in playing with texture — and how rocking a monochromatic look with minimal jewelry can still make a statement.

Amy Sussman/Getty Images

Anna Sawai in Vera Wang

Anna made history as the first Japanese star to win for Best Lead Actress at the Emmys — and she did so wearing one of the most beautiful looks of the night. The mermaid silhouette is playful but edgy (thanks to the pointed detail of the bodice).

Frazer Harrison/Getty Images

Dakota Fanning in Armani Privé

I cannot stop looking at this gorgeous champagne and pearl number Dakota wore on the red carpet. It's the perfect mix of feminine, classy, and understated, and even though she isn't wearing a necklace or bracelets, the pearl detail makes this dress its own accessory.

Quinta Brunson in Georges Chakra

The silhouette of Quinta's dress comes across similarly to Anna Sawait's — but Quinta takes a Clara Bow approach to the look with an old school hairstyle and moody glam. Obsessed!
