From someone who worked at starbucks. If you have a milk/dairy allergy AT ALL. DO NOT. I repeat. DO NOT. Drink Pumpkin Spice.
It contains dairy IN the syrup that is used to make the drink. Even if you get it made with soy, you will still be getting doses of dairy in there.
Depending on the severity and intolerance it can and will cause reactions. I found that as a barista I was constantly warning people about the dairy in the product. No one ever seemed to tell them that there was dairy in the mix. More times than I can count I heard people realize that’s why they kept having reactions, or that’s why it made them sick.
People legitimately do not know that pumpkin spice no matter what you do will always contain some amount of dairy.
As someone who worked for Dunkin Donuts, this also applies to all of the flavor swirls. They’re made from skim milk. I don’t know if Starbucks has flavor shots or not, but Dunkin does. If you need pumpkin flavor in your coffee please get the K-Cups or grounds with the pumpkin flavor in it. Dunkin has almond milk and just so you know, it’s vanilla flavored.
I’m allergic to pumpkin so I’ve legit never had pumpkin spice anything LOL but to all my followers be careful babes!!
