The difference

40 kcal

Both are a shot of espresso with steamed milk. A cappuccino is smaller and has more foam, a latte is bigger and mostly milk.

Oat milk lands in the same range, skimmed milk takes a latte down to about 100. Syrup is what really adds up: 20 to 30 kcal a pump.

Neither is a problem in a day. Two lattes and a muffin is where coffee turns into a meal.
