Hot coffee vs. iced coffee vs. espresso drinks
Premium Roast Coffee is the cheapest option and has almost no calories when served black. Iced Coffee comes sweetened with light cream and syrup by default, so ask for sugar-free vanilla if you are counting calories. Espresso drinks such as the Latte, Cappuccino and Americano cost more but taste closer to a coffeehouse drink.
Frappes and blended drinks
The Caramel Frappe and Mocha Frappe are blended with ice and topped with whipped cream. They are closer to a milkshake than a coffee, with 500 or more calories in a medium, so a small without whipped topping is a lighter way to enjoy one.
How to save on McCafe drinks
- Look for $1 any-size coffee and specialty drink discounts in the app.
- Order with light ice for more drink for the same price.
- Use MyMcDonald’s Rewards points; coffee is one of the cheapest rewards to redeem.
