One of the reasons Starbucks is popular is the variety of options they offer.
Unlike other coffee shops that only have classic coffee drinks, Starbucks makes sure that they have everything for every taste.
One flavor that is part of its diverse flavor options is hazelnut. Many people love the delectably nutty taste, especially when mixed with coffee or chocolate.
But which Starbucks hazelnut drink is perfect for you?
We will list down in this article 6 of the best Starbucks hazelnut drinks you shouldn’t miss so you can quench your nutty cravings!
6 Best Hazelnut Drinks At Starbucks (Satisfy Your Cravings)
1. Hazelnut Mocha Coconutmilk Macchiato
Who doesn’t love Nutella, right? If you’re obsessed with it like we are, this Hazelnut Mocha Coconutmilk Macchiato is for you.
The hazelnut syrup perfectly blends with the chocolate goodness of mocha and the bitter flavor of macchiato.
Instead of regular milk, it’s replaced with steamed coconut milk adding a more nutty flavor to the drink.
The creamy, steamed coconut milk gives a delectably nutty taste, but also makes the texture really smooth - so the espresso shots are easier to drink.
The hazelnut mocha coconutmilk macchiato is also suitable for vegans or those who are lactose intolerant.
Since it uses macchiato instead of reserve espresso Starbucks coffee, its bitterness is mellowed down with a more creamy texture.
The best part? You can order it hot or iced, and available on the regular Starbucks menu.
So what are you waiting for? Head on to your local Starbucks and enjoy this drink!

2. Hazelnut Bianco Latte
If you don't feel like adding chocolate to your coffee, this Starbucks hazelnut drink is a good choice.
The Hazelnut Bianco Latte is made from homemade hazelnut-praline, infused with your choice of milk combined with reserve espresso Starbucks coffee. Every sip is simply heaven.[1]
However, this drink is only available on Starbucks Reserve, so you’re not going to see it in your regular Starbucks cafe.
This drink has 380 calories, which isn’t ideal if you’re watching your weight. But if you’re only drinking it once in a while, it’s not going to harm you.
But be warned, it’s pretty addicting, so be sure you can control yourself if you’re trying to manage your weight.
If you don’t care much about how many calories you consume, go ahead and indulge.

3. Iced Hazelnut Bianco Latte
This Starbucks hazelnut drink is essentially just Hazelnut Bianco Latte over ice.[2] The same hazelnut-praline-infused milk combined with the Starbucks Reserve espresso shots.
Since it's an iced drink, it’s perfect when hot beverages aren't appealing on hot summer days.
Unlike the hot version, this drink only has 280 calories. That's 100 calories less than the hot version.
You can also choose what milk you want to add to the hazelnut coffee drink, so if you're a vegan or can’t drink dairy, request an coconut or oat milk instead.
You’ll be surprised how changing the milk can transform your drink.
4. Hazelnut Malt Frappuccino
Are you looking for a special hazelnut drink to try on your next trip to Starbucks? If so, this secret menu drink is for you.
This Starbucks hazelnut drink uses a Vanilla Bean Frappuccino base with hazelnut syrup and nutmeg powder.
The combination of the nutty flavor of hazelnut, earthy taste of nutmeg powder, and sweetness of vanilla bean powder from the vanilla bean Frappuccino base make the hazelnut malt Frappuccino anything but boring.
Just make sure to tell the recipe to the barista instead of just saying the name of the drink since some may have no idea what drink you're talking about - and you may end up with a regular vanilla bean Frappuccino.
Ask Barista For: A Vanilla Bean Frappuccino with an extra scoop of vanilla bean powder, hazelnut syrup, and nutmeg powder.

5. Blonde Hazelnut Latte
Do you want more caffeine in your Starbucks hazelnut drink? Then get this Blonde Hazelnut Latte on your next trip to Starbucks.[3]
This drink is simple, yet the combination of the flavors makes it quite addicting.
It uses Starbucks’s blonde espresso shots, which are more lightly roasted coffee than their usual blend.
It's then mixed with milk which you can change depending on your preference, and hazelnut syrup.
Since it is a Starbucks blonde espresso drink instead of the regular one, the blonde hazelnut latte has a lighter and mother body than your regular hazelnut latte.
You can ask for this hot or iced, depending on how you want your coffee to be.

6. Nutella Frappuccino
Everyone loves the Nutella hazelnut chocolate spread, but do you want to experience Nutella in a frappuccino? Yes?
Then, get this Starbucks secret menu hazelnut beverage. It’s creamy, chocolatey, nutty, and sweet, and every sip will leave you asking why you haven’t ordered this drink before.
So if you’re craving a dessert drink that's full of hazelnut chocolate spread goodness, this is for you!
Then ask them to top it with more whipped cream and caramel drizzle for that extra sweetness.
Ask Barista For: A regular coffee frappuccino with two pumps of mocha syrup and one pump of hazelnut syrup, and blend them in whipped cream.

How To Order Hazelnut 'Secret Menu' Drinks At Starbucks?
Ordering a hazelnut coffee at Starbucks is straightforward, especially if what you’re ordering is readily available on the menu.
Like all drinks, they come in tall, grande, and venti cup sizes.
Starbucks have started offering some more choice of beans in your coffee drink too.
Blonde espresso, which uses more lightly roasted coffee beans, works really well in a hazelnut coffee - so if you're having a coffee drink with espresso shots then it's worth asking your barista about that version.
Since Starbucks uses hazelnut syrup, you can easily add it to most of your favorite coffee drink choices.
You can be creative with your drink and add hazelnut syrup to classic drinks like Caffe Mocha, lattes, frappuccinos, and more.
Your imagination is the only limit on your hazelnut coffee.
You can even combine it with Starbucks cinnamon, nutmeg, tasty toffee nut, vanilla bean powder, and other flavors since it can complement many flavors.
Hazelnut is versatile and can be added to chai teas if you’re feeling a little adventurous.
If you're ordering a hazelnut Frappuccino or hazelnut malt Frappuccino then the base is almost always a vanilla bean Frappuccino.
Start with that, and ask your barista for extra hazelnut syrup pumps, nutmeg powder, espresso shots, or any flavors you want to make this hazelnut drink your own.
You need to be mindful when ordering hazelnut coffee, especially if you’re experimenting or ordering from the secret menu.
If there are many customers in the store, having a complicated order will take time to complete and may disrupt the whole store.
So, it’s best to ready your recipe right away and don’t let other customers wait in line.
