It’s a pretty simple caffeinated beverage, which I’ve always found attractive. “Ironically, Starbucks has macchiatos, and I’ve had this exact problem as a Starbucks barista,” another said. The traditional macchiato you can find anywhere, as it’s a classic Italian espresso drink that, unlike the Frappuccino, isn’t trademarked by Starbucks. “This happened to me once, but I shut up and drank it because I was more embarrassed that I didn’t know what a real macchiato was,” someone wrote. 'A cafe or espresso macchiato is the traditional version, while a latte macchiato is an American version that you would buy at Starbucks,' Willhoff says. I know this experience too deeply,” a person commented.

Conversely, even though a caff macchiato is traditionally about half the size of a latte macchiato, it’s a much stronger drink. Tall latte macchiato at Starbucks (12 ounces) has the same. It is mostly steamed milk and foam, with just about half a shot of espresso. Some people in the comments noted that Starbucks does offer a lesser-known “espresso macchiato” that is the traditional version. Latte macchiato has significantly less caffeine than espresso macchiato, compared to its size. It's around four total ounces with (almost) equal parts espresso to steamed milk. The result is that the barista always ends up having to make them a Starbucks- style macchiato anyway. Macchiato means 'stained' or 'marked' and indicates espresso 'marked' with a splash of milk. “They say, ‘I’ll take a traditional macchiato.’ So I make it for them, and when I hand it to them, they go, ‘That’s not what I wanted,'” she said.

Caramel Macchiato This flavored latte option in the 16 fluid ounces size contains 150mg of caffeine. She also noted that the traditional drink - about the size of an espresso shot - is much smaller than the Starbucks version. Espresso Macchiato With a serving size of 1.6 fluid ounces, the drink contains 150mg of caffeine. “They say, ‘What’s the difference?’ I say, ‘A traditional macchiato is a shot of espresso with a dollop of foam on top … and a ‘Starbucks macchiato is like a caramel latte.'” “You ask them if they want a traditional macchiato or a ‘Starbucks macchiato,'” she continued. “My favorite is when you work at a real coffee shop, and someone comes in and orders a macchiato,” she explained.
