How many pumps of syrup does a Very Hot Latte contain?

A Very Hot Latte at Starbucks typically contains five pumps of syrup. This number is based on the standard recipe for flavored lattes, which includes a specific amount of syrup to ensure the drink has the right balance of sweetness and flavor without overwhelming the coffee. The amount can vary depending on the size of the drink, but for the Very Hot Latte, five pumps provide a noticeable yet well-balanced flavor enhancement that complements the espresso and steamed milk. This consistency in preparation helps maintain quality and ensures customers receive the same delicious experience with each order.
