Milk tea lovers don’t have to give up their favorite beverages when trying to lose stubborn belly fat. While Starbucks is often praised for its coffee, there are also tea options, including milk teas, that can support weight loss goals—if chosen wisely.
Here are 6 low-sugar milk tea and coffee drinks recommended by nutrition expert Mary Sabat MS, RDN, LD, that can fit into a healthy lifestyle focused on trimming belly overhang:
1.Caffe Americano
A bold, sugar-free espresso mixed with hot water, offering full flavor without added calories or sugar.
2.Espresso Macchiato
Just 15 calories and virtually zero sugar, this drink tops a shot of espresso with a small amount of milk foam for a rich, low-calorie option.
3.Iced Black Tea
A refreshing, zero-calorie tea when ordered without sweeteners. Add stevia for sweetness without sugar or calories.
4.Emperor’s Clouds and Mist Tea
A green tea rich in antioxidants like EGCG, it supports metabolism and fat burning while offering a gentle caffeine boost without jitters.
5.Cold Brew Coffee
Almost calorie-free with zero sugar, cold brew is a great pick for weight watchers. Adding a small amount of milk keeps sugar content low.
6.Iced Skinny Latte
Low in sugar (just 3 grams), this milk tea option contains an artificial sweetener but still fits within a low-calorie diet.
These drinks combine satisfying flavors with a low sugar profile, making them ideal choices for anyone wanting to enjoy milk tea or coffee without compromising on their waistline goals. Opting for unsweetened or lightly sweetened versions can help keep calories in check while still delivering refreshing taste.
