When you order a latte, whether it’s hot or iced, you would think it’s a healthier choice than something like a frappe, and it is, but it’s still not the most nutritious. An Iced French Vanilla Latte from McDonald’s isn’t the worst thing you could be ordering, and it doesn’t have many ingredients in it, either. However, it does have a preservative in the French vanilla syrup, in case you were curious. They even give you a choice between the milk you would like to have added. 

Let’s say you order a large Iced French Vanilla Latte with whole milk. That will be 360 calories you are about to drink down. There are a few more calories in that drink than a cheeseburger from the same place. Think about that for a second. Would you rather eat a meal or drink your meal? You could have both, but then you would be doubling the number of calories you’d be taking in in one sitting. Furthermore, that drink alone also has 53 carbs.
