La Colombe's frothy nitro-charged canned latte: creamy and lightly sweet, though the can has shrunk to 9 oz at about $2.83 each.
A 9 oz can of espresso-roast cold brew, lactose-free whole milk, cane sugar and vanilla extract, charged with nitrous oxide so it pours with a foamy head. La Colombe lists 130 calories, 12 g of sugar and 6 g of protein per can, and a newly reduced 100 mg of caffeine. Redditors report buying it at Costco and on gas-station deals; online it sells in 12- and 24-packs.
Best for
- Grab-and-go iced latte drinkers
- People who want a lighter-sugar canned latte
What we like
- Nitrous-oxide 'draft' foam gives a café-latte texture straight from the can
- Lightly sweet: 12 g total sugar, only 4 g added
- 6 g protein from lactose-free whole milk
- Short ingredient list with real vanilla extract
Watch-outs
- Can size has dropped to 9 fl oz

FAQ
Good questions.
How much caffeine is in a La Colombe Vanilla Draft Latte?
La Colombe lists 100 mg per can, which it describes as a new, reduced caffeine level. Older inventory may still be in circulation while the change rolls out.
Is the Draft Latte dairy-free?
No. It is made with lactose-free whole milk, so it suits many lactose-intolerant drinkers but not dairy-free or vegan diets. La Colombe sells separate oat-milk Draft Lattes.
Why is it foamy?
The cans are charged with nitrous oxide, which creates a frothy head when you pour the latte into a glass.
