The Unicorn Frappuccino Is a Serious Sugar Bomb
We're all for living a balanced life and indulging in a treat when you've got a craving - you live your best life, girl! But we also think you should be aware of exactly what's going in your body - and when we heard the news that Starbucks would be releasing a Unicorn Frappuccino, our first thought was, "holy sh*t, that's gonna be a sugar bomb."
The crème-based blended beverage has no coffee, so the entirety of the drink is cream, ice, and LOTS of added sugar. For reference, the recommended max sugar intake for a woman is 25 grams per day. Now, without further ado, the Starbucks Unicorn Frappuccino nutritional information.
Serving Size | Calories | Sugars | Fat | Carbs | Protein |
Tall (with whip) | 280 | 39 | 11 | 42 | 4 |
Grande (with whip) | 410 | 59 | 16 | 62 | 5 |
Venti (with whip) | 500 | 76 | 18 | 79 | 7 |
So . . . we got the chance to try this exorbitantly sweet frosty drink, it is SO sweet. And as a grande drink will run you 59 grams of sugar - more than double the daily recommended amount (think about that: two days worth of sugar in just one drink), be sure to enjoy this "magical" concoction with moderation.
If you're trying to curb a sweet tooth without ingesting a sugar-loaded calorie bomb (with a much shorter ingredient list), you can browse our healthy dessert suggestions that not only taste good, but will help you feel good, too.
