Starbucks Gingerbread Oatmilk Chai: Calories and Price
The seasonal oatmilk chai, with the only Grande numbers on our menu and the return date the tea page gives.
Quick answer. Gingerbread Oatmilk Chai is a holiday drink, not a year-round chai. The menu says it is expected back, hot and iced, on Nov. 5. The Grande on the price list is 310 calories hot, 370 calories iced, and about $7.35 either way.
- Size in this answer: Grande
- Calories: 310
- Average US price: $7.35

What Is Published, and What Is Not
We have a Grande price and two calorie counts. We do not have sugar, caffeine, or a Tall and Venti row for this drink. Those cells stay blank on purpose. A regular Chai Latte’s 55 mg Grande figure belongs to the regular chai, and we are not pasting it onto the gingerbread drink.
| Drink | Size | Price | Calories | Sugar | Caffeine |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Gingerbread Oatmilk Chai, hot | Grande, 16 oz | $7.35 | 310 | — | — |
| Iced Gingerbread Oatmilk Chai | Grande, 16 oz | $7.35 | 370 | — | — |
The iced Grande is the higher calorie of the two, at 370 versus 310 for the hot Grande, and the listed price is the same. The holiday list is on the holiday menu, and the rest of the chai family is on the tea menu.
How to Order
- Wait for the holiday menu, which the site dates at Nov. 5.
- Order a Grande. That is the only size with a calorie number.
- Say hot or iced. The calories are not the same.
- Ask for the regular Chai Latte if gingerbread is not on the register yet. It is a different drink, with its own page on the tea menu.
A Home Gingerbread Oatmilk Chai
This is a spiced oatmilk chai for the weeks the store drink is off the menu. It is our recipe, not a copy of Starbucks’ syrup.
Ingredients
- 1 cup strong brewed black tea, or a chai concentrate you already use at home
- 3/4 cup oat milk
- 1 tablespoon molasses
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- A pinch of nutmeg
Instructions
- Warm the oat milk with the molasses and spices until the molasses dissolves. Do not boil it hard or the oat milk can split.
- Add the tea. Stir. For an iced cup, cool the mix and pour it over ice.
- Treat this as a home chai. Starbucks’ Grande figures are 310 calories hot and 370 iced. This mug is not those numbers.
