Caffeine Content In Starbucks Bottled Frappuccino Drinks

Starbucks has been known for its delicious Iced Frappuccinos at its coffee shops. In an effort to capitalize on their popularity, Starbucks created a line of ready to drink Frappuccino's.

The main difference between the at home and in coffee shop versions is the at home is more of an iced coffee drink while the in shop is a blended ice and coffee beverage. The at home versions do contain milk. Both contain actual brewed coffee.

What is the caffeine content of Starbucks Bottle Frappuccinos?

Starbucks bottled Frappuccino caffeine content does vary slightly by flavor (see chart at end of the post) but the average caffeine content comes in at 110 mg per 13.7 fluid ounce bottle or 8.02 mg per ounce

Since these are pre-brewed and packaged the caffeine content will be consistent in each bottle.

 

 Serving Size Caffeine (MG) Sugar (G)
13.7 oz 110 46

 

Is Starbucks Bottled Frappuccino Caffeine Content Considered High?

At 8.02 mg of caffeine per brewed ounce and 110 mg in a full 13.7 ounce bottle, the caffeine content of this drink is very similar to a standard cup of black coffee.

For comparison, a 12-ounce brewed Starbucks Grande Pike Place has 235 mg of caffeine.

Since the FDA states 400 mg of caffeine is generally considered as safe for healthy adults, drinking more than one of these should not be an issue. However, the sugar and calories will add up quickly.

Comparison to other caffeinated drinks

 

Does Starbucks Bottle Frappuccino Have Sugar or Calories?

Yes, the bottled drinks have both sugar and calories. A single bottle will have 290 calories and 46 grams of sugar making this a high-calorie and sugar-content drink and a better fit for a one-time pick-me-up rather then an everyday option.

 

How Long Does Caffeine Stay in Your System?

Caffeine has a half-life of 6 hours, meaning half of the amount you consume will be out of your body within 6 hours. The other half will take another 4-6 hours to leave, so that means you'll need to wait 12 hours for complete clearance from your system. But this is just an average; some people may clear it more quickly than others due to individual factors such as age and genetics.
