Why these drinks are cheap to try
Most of the cost of a secret menu drink is the base. A latte is already £5.00; one pump of syrup adds £0.75 and roughly 14 kcal. The expensive habit is stacking: three add-ons on a Frappuccino push a Tall past £8.85. If a combination keeps growing, compare it with the seasonal drinks — the autumn menu lattes cost £6.30 with the flavour already in.

How to order without confusing the barista
- Start with the size and the menu drink: "a Tall Caffè Mocha…".
- Then each change with a number: "…with one pump of hazelnut syrup".
- Say the milk last if you want something other than semi-skimmed.
- Skip the nickname. "Black & White Mocha" means nothing on the till; "Mocha with one pump of white mocha sauce" does.
- In the app or on Uber Eats, build the drink from the same steps — every add-on on this page is in the customisation list.
Lighter versions
The sugar-free vanilla and caramel syrups add about 1 kcal a pump instead of around 15. A Skinny Vanilla Latte with skimmed milk is the lightest flavoured latte you can order. White chocolate mocha sauce is the heaviest add-on at 43 kcal a pump. More low-kcal ideas on our low-calorie Starbucks page.

Frequently asked questions
Does Starbucks UK have a secret menu?
Not officially. Baristas will make any combination of the syrups, sauces, milks and shots they stock, but they will not know a drink by a nickname. Order by the recipe — base drink first, then each change.
How much does a secret menu drink cost?
The price of the base drink plus every add-on. On Uber Eats each extra pump of syrup or sauce, an extra shot and caramel drizzle cost £0.75 each; milk swaps are free. A Dirty Chai, for example, is £6.55 for a Tall.
What is a Dirty Chai at Starbucks?
A Chai Latte with a shot of espresso added. A Tall comes to £6.55 on Uber Eats with about 84 mg of caffeine and 130 kcal.
What is the strongest drink I can order?
A Red Eye — filter coffee with an extra espresso shot. A Tall has about 254 mg of caffeine for £3.73. A Grande Cold Brew (265 mg) comes close without any add-ons.
Can I order secret menu drinks on the app or Uber Eats?
Yes, if every part of the recipe is in the customisation options: pick the base drink, then add syrups, sauces or shots one by one. Things the app does not list — such as cinnamon powder on top — are best asked for in the shop.
Are the US secret menu drinks available in the UK?
Many are not. The UK has fewer syrups — no raspberry, peppermint or toffee nut outside Christmas — and a shorter list of cold foams. The recipes on this page only use what UK shops stock all year.
