The Krispy Kreme Original Glazed Latte is the most distinctive and uniquely Krispy Kreme drink on the entire coffee menu. Made with rich espresso shots, velvety steamed milk, and a proprietary Original Glazed flavored syrup — it genuinely tastes like a liquid version of the iconic Original Glazed doughnut. There is nothing else quite like it in fast food coffee.

At 280 calories per medium serving it sits above the Vanilla Latte but below the richer specialty lattes. The Original Glazed syrup adds a distinctive sweet glazed doughnut flavor that is unlike any standard vanilla or caramel latte you have tried elsewhere.

What Does the Original Glazed Latte Taste Like?

The best way to describe it is a latte that has been kissed by a fresh Original Glazed doughnut. The syrup captures the light, sweet, slightly buttery quality of the Original Glazed glaze and translates it into a liquid form that blends seamlessly with espresso and steamed milk. It is sweet but not overwhelmingly so — and the espresso cuts through to keep it balanced.

Original Glazed Latte vs Vanilla Latte

  • Vanilla Latte — 250 cal, classic vanilla flavor, familiar and widely available everywhere
  • Original Glazed Latte — 280 cal, unique Krispy Kreme doughnut flavor, only available at Krispy Kreme

The Original Glazed Latte is the better choice if you want a truly unique Krispy Kreme experience. The Vanilla Latte is better if you prefer a familiar, classic flavor.

The Original Glazed Latte is available in three formats at Krispy Kreme:

  • Hot — classic steamed milk latte, 280 calories
  • Iced — served over ice with cold milk, slightly lower calories
  • Frozen — blended frozen specialty latte, 340 calories — the most indulgent version

  • Original Glazed Kreme Filled — the Kreme filling and Original Glazed Latte is an indulgent combination
  • Original Glazed Cinnamon Roll — the cinnamon adds a warm note to the glazed latte experience

Ordering Tips

  • Try it hot first — the Original Glazed Latte is best experienced warm for the full flavor impact
  • Ask for light syrup if you prefer less sweetness
  • The frozen version is the most indulgent — great for a special occasion treat
