1 cup (medium) of Lactose-free milk latte (240 g) has 115 calories. That works out to 48 calories per 100 g. It contains 12.5 g of carbs, 7 g of protein, 3.8 g of fat and 0 g of fiber. Its 1.1 µg of B12 covers 45% of the Daily Value. Its glycemic index is 45 (low), so it raises blood sugar slowly.
A lactose-free milk latte is an espresso-based drink made with steamed, foamed lactose-free milk. It belongs to the Italian café tradition of caffè latte, and its smooth milk foam softens espresso’s roasted edge, giving the drink a creamy texture and gentle sweetness.
It is commonly served hot in cafés, though it can also be made iced. Enjoy it at breakfast or as a mid-morning or afternoon coffee, perhaps with a plain pastry or a small sandwich. The milk contributes some protein, while the espresso keeps the drink’s coffee flavour at the forefront. For a lighter cup, choose a smaller size and skip flavoured syrups.

How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.

Yes. The espresso in a lactose-free milk latte contains caffeine, and the amount depends mainly on how many espresso shots are used. Ask for fewer shots or decaf espresso if you want to reduce the caffeine.
Usually, yes, because the milk has had its lactose broken down. It is not the same as a dairy-free latte, though, and some people with lactose intolerance may still be sensitive to other ingredients or to small amounts of lactose.
A lactose-free milk latte is made with milk in which lactase has broken lactose into simpler sugars; a regular latte uses milk with lactose intact. Both contain dairy and milk proteins, but the lactose-free version often tastes sweeter.
The lactase used to make lactose-free milk splits lactose into glucose and galactose, which taste sweeter. That sweetness can be noticeable even when the lactose-free milk latte has no added sugar or flavored syrup.
No. A lactose-free milk latte is still made with dairy milk; “lactose-free” refers to the milk sugar, not the milk proteins or the source of the milk. Choose a plant-based latte if you need to avoid dairy.
Pull espresso into a cup, heat and froth lactose-free milk, then pour the milk over the espresso. For a simple latte, leave out syrups and sweeteners; avoid overheating the milk so the foam stays smooth.
Yes. Lactose-free milk generally foams much like regular milk because removing or breaking down lactose does not remove the milk proteins that help form foam. The result still varies with the milk and how it is steamed.
Not necessarily: a plain lactose-free milk latte needs only espresso and lactose-free milk. The milk may taste sweeter naturally, while café versions can contain added sugar from flavored syrups or sweetened ingredients.
Usually, yes, if it is made with pasteurized milk, but its espresso still contributes caffeine. Keep track of caffeine from all sources and follow your pregnancy care provider’s advice about your individual intake.
You can, but the espresso may make it harder to fall asleep, especially if you are sensitive to caffeine. A decaf lactose-free milk latte is a better evening choice if you want to avoid that effect.
