Matcha latte calories by size, milk and sweetener
A matcha latte is whisked green-tea powder with steamed milk, so most of its calories come from the milk and the sweetener — not the matcha itself. Size, the type of milk and how many pumps of sweet syrup go in are what move the number up or down.

FAQ
How many calories are in a matcha latte?
A 16 oz (grande) matcha latte with whole milk and regular sweetener is about 240 kcal. An unsweetened almond-milk version can be near 80 kcal, and a large sweetened whole-milk one is closer to 290 kcal.
How many calories are in a matcha latte with almond milk?
Switching a 16 oz matcha latte to unsweetened almond milk drops it to roughly 80-150 kcal, depending on how much sweetener is added. The milk swap alone saves about 90 kcal versus whole milk.
Why does café matcha have more calories than I'd expect?
Most café matcha is a pre-sweetened powder blend, so a grande can carry 30-50 g of sugar before you add anything. Asking for less sweetener, or a sugar-free matcha, is the biggest lever.
Can SpoonCheck estimate my matcha latte from a photo?
Yes. A photo helps SpoonCheck gauge the cup size and how creamy the drink looks, so you get a realistic estimate without reading the menu or counting pumps.
