Mexico City —From those who start their day with exercise to those seeking new options to accompany their activities, more people are incorporating protein into their daily routine. As part of this evolution, coffeehouses across Starbucks Mexico, operated by Alsea, will offer a new line of Protein Lattes made with Protein-boosted Milk. 

The new drinks, available starting March 9, come in a variety of flavors (including a sugar-free option) and are designed to support customers looking to add protein to their order. 

“We are constantly evolving our menu to meet the changing needs of our customers and stay attuned to cultural trends. With these new protein beverages, we are offering a way to level up some of your favorite Starbucks drinks, while keeping the flavor and handcrafted quality that define Starbucks,” said Diego Recalde, Marketing Director of Alsea Starbucks.

The flavors you crave and the nutrition you need

Crafted with Protein-boosted Milk, Starbucks Protein Lattes will deliver approximately 23 to 35 grams of protein per Grande beverage while maintaining the rich, bold flavor and smooth texture customers know and love. 

  • The Protein Matcha combines unsweetened matcha with classic syrup and Protein-boosted Milk and delivers 28 to 35 grams of protein per Grande beverage.
  • The Vanilla Protein Latte features rich, bold espresso combined with Protein-boosted Milk and vanilla syrup and packs 23 to 28 grams of protein per Grande beverage.
  • The Sugar-Free Vanilla Protein Latte offers rich, dark espresso combined with Protein-boosted Milk and sugar-free vanilla syrup delivering 23 to 28 grams of protein per Grande beverage.

All our protein drinks are made with care by Starbucks Mexico baristas using premium whey protein customers can feel good about. Every creamy sip is made to dissolve effortlessly, resulting in a smooth, velvety texture that fits naturally into any moment of the day.

For more than two decades in Mexico, Starbucks has been a meeting point for connection, inspiration, and high-quality coffee. With this new line, the brand expands its offering toward an experience that also supports customers in keeping up with their routine, their goals and everything the day brings.
