There was a Starbucks right next to my high school growing up, and you better believe I stopped by every morning! Not only was it the cool thing to show up to school with, but it was addicting. I’d get a vanilla frappuccino and pumpkin bread. Until I learned how many calories I was consuming on a weekly basis. Then I switched to an iced mocha latte. Until I heard about a skinny mocha latte. Then I was sure that was my last stop until I decided to like black coffee, which I never have.
The tough thing about ordering coffee out is that it’s packed with sugar and calories that you’d never know about, because you’re focused on how delicious it is! Plus, there’s a myth that coffee keeps your metabolism active, so no need to worry about what you put in it. So wrong!!
Just because you switch to a skinny mocha, doesn’t mean you’re ordering a healthy latte. Trust me, I’ve tried all sorts of coffee orders. The best iced mocha is the one you can make right at home. Not only is it the best tasting, but the healthiest!
