About the Nitro Cold Brew
Small-batch cold brew infused with nitrogen and poured from the tap, giving it a naturally sweet taste and velvety texture with no added sugar. Plain nitro contains only coffee.
High caffeine, near-zero calories, and a creamy texture make it a favorite for anyone who wants a bold, unsweetened coffee. It's served without ice, so only Tall and Grande are offered.

Nutrition data compiled from Starbucks public sources, as of 2026-07. Calorie and caffeine values are taken directly from Starbucks' own nutrition data (apiproxy), assuming default 2% milk for espresso drinks (whole milk for Flat White, 2% milk + whipped cream for PSL). Choosing a different milk changes the calories. Prices are not published by Starbucks and vary by location; third-party aggregators disagreed by over $1 for the same drink, so all prices are intentionally left out rather than estimated.
