7 Brew Caramel Cinnamon Spice Tea

About This Drink

Caramel Cinnamon Spice Tea

The 7 Brew Caramel Cinnamon Spice Tea is a brewed cinnamon spice tea sweetened with caramel syrup, served iced or hot, and it is one of the lightest flavored drinks on the entire 7 Brew menu at just 20 calories for a Kids (10oz), 40 calories for a Small (16oz), 80 calories for a Medium (24oz), and 120 calories for a Large (32oz). Caffeine is modest and comes entirely from the tea leaves rather than espresso - roughly 11mg in Kids, Small, and Medium sizes and about 21mg in a Large. There is no dairy in the standard build, so the nutrition panel lists zero fat, zero protein, and no allergens.

7 Brew, the drive-thru-only chain born in Rogers, Arkansas, built its reputation on espresso Originals like the Brunette and the Blondie, but the tea board is where regulars go when they want flavor without a caffeine jolt or a 500-calorie dessert. The cinnamon spice tea base is brewed in-house and already carries baking-spice character on its own - cinnamon bark up front with a warm, faintly clove-and-allspice backbone. The crew then pumps in caramel syrup, shakes or stirs it through, and pours it over ice, or builds it hot in a cup for the cold months.

What makes this drink unusual is how the caramel behaves in a non-dairy environment. In a latte, caramel reads buttery and heavy because milk fat rounds it out. In tea, with nothing to hide behind, the caramel turns bright and almost brown-sugar-like, closer to the glaze on a cinnamon roll than to a caramel candy. That is why the drink tastes richer than 120 calories has any business tasting. It is the standard order for people who want the feeling of a fall coffeehouse drink at the calorie cost of a piece of fruit, and it is fully customizable - half-sweet, sugar-free caramel, extra cinnamon spice concentrate, or a splash of oat milk are all one sentence at the speaker box.

Information for Caramel Cinnamon Spice Tea

Dairy-Free

The standard build contains no milk, cream, or half-and-half - the nutrition panel lists no allergens at any size. Order without any milk splash to keep it that way.

Vegan-Friendly

Tea, water, caramel syrup, and ice contain no animal products in the standard build. If you add a milk splash, request oat or almond rather than half-and-half.

Nut-Free

No nut allergens listed in the standard recipe. Avoid adding almond milk or any nut-based syrup if you have a tree nut allergy, and note that drive-thru blenders and pitchers are shared equipment.

Gluten-Free

No gluten-containing ingredients in the tea base or caramel syrup, though 7 Brew does not operate a certified gluten-free facility.

Keto-Friendly (Modified)

Not keto as served - a Large has 30g net carbs. Order with sugar-free caramel and no milk and it drops to roughly 1-2g net carbs, making it fully keto-compatible.

Low Calorie

At 40 calories for a 16oz Small and 120 calories for a 32oz Large, this is among the five lightest drinks on the 7 Brew menu even before modifications.

Low Caffeine

Just 11mg in Kids through Medium and about 21mg in a Large - safe for late-evening ordering and for people sensitive to stimulants.

Sugar-Conscious Option

All 30g of sugar in a Large comes from one ingredient. Requesting sugar-free caramel or half-sweet eliminates most or all of it, which is not possible with the smoothies or shakes where purees carry natural sugar.

TASTE

What Does the 7 Brew Caramel Cinnamon Spice Tea Taste Like?

The first thing that hits is aroma, especially in the hot version - warm cinnamon bark with a faint sweet-bakery lift from the caramel, the smell of a cinnamon roll cooling on a rack. The first sip is surprisingly clean. There is no creaminess, no coating on the tongue, just a thin, brisk tea body that carries the caramel forward like a wave rather than a syrup pool.

Mid-sip is where the cinnamon takes over. It is not the sharp, red-hot candy kind of cinnamon - it is rounder and woodier, with a whisper of clove and dried orange peel behind it, the way a good mulling spice blend behaves. The caramel sits underneath and reads more like brown sugar than butterscotch, which keeps the whole thing from tipping into dessert territory.

The finish is the best part and the most surprising. As the tea drains away, a gentle warming tingle stays on the back of the throat from the spice, followed by a short caramel sweetness that fades in about five seconds instead of lingering stickily. Iced, the drink is crisp and refreshing with a light tannic snap on the tail end. Hot, the spices bloom noticeably more and the caramel goes softer and rounder, closer to a hot toddy without the alcohol. At standard sweetness a Large has 30g of sugar, which drinks as moderately sweet - noticeable, but never syrupy.

INGREDIENTS

What's Actually in the 7 Brew Caramel Cinnamon Spice Tea?

Brewed Cinnamon Spice Tea House-brewed spiced black tea blend carrying cinnamon bark with clove and allspice notes - the only source of caffeine in the drink (11mg to 21mg per cup)

Caramel Syrup Roughly 2 pumps Small, 3 pumps Medium, 4 pumps Large - accounts for essentially all 10g to 30g of sugar in the drink; sugar-free caramel available on request

Ice Filled to the top for the iced build, which dilutes slightly as it melts and softens the spice edge in the last third of the cup

Water Brewing water for the tea concentrate - no milk, cream, or half-and-half in the standard recipe, which is why the fat and protein columns both read 0g

How to Order the Caramel Cinnamon Spice Tea for the First Time

If this is your first Caramel Cinnamon Spice Tea, order a Medium Iced at standard sweetness. At 80 calories and 20g sugar it is the cleanest read on how 7 Brew balances the caramel against the spice, and 24oz is enough drink to get past the first-few-sips ice dilution.

Set your expectations correctly: this is a tea, not a latte. It is thin-bodied, translucent, and refreshing rather than creamy. People who order it expecting a Caramel Cinnamon spiced milk drink are the only ones who come away disappointed. If creamy is what you actually want, ask for a splash of oat milk or order the chai instead.

If you are caffeine-sensitive or ordering after 6pm, this drink is one of the safest choices on the board at 11mg to 21mg - about a fifth of a single espresso shot. And if you are ordering for the whole car, note that the Kids size (10oz, 20 calories, 5g sugar) is genuinely one of the most reasonable kid orders at any drive-thru coffee chain.

Pro tip: Don't be afraid to ask your brewista for recommendations — they love helping first-timers!

How to get a drink similar to the Caramel Cinnamon Spice Tea at other coffee chains

Similar flavored espresso drink

How to Order

Ask for a Venti Iced Black Tea, unsweetened, then add 3 pumps caramel syrup and 1 pump cinnamon dolce syrup. Starbucks has no pre-brewed cinnamon spice tea base, so the spice has to come from cinnamon dolce syrup or a Chai Tea order instead.

Key Difference

The Starbucks version leans sweeter and more artificial on the cinnamon because it is syrup-derived rather than brewed into the tea. Caffeine is also higher - a Venti iced black tea runs roughly 70mg versus 21mg for a 7 Brew Large.

Similar flavored drink

How to Order

Order a Large Iced Black Tea and ask for caramel syrup plus cinnamon. Dutch Bros does not carry a named caramel cinnamon spice tea, so this is a custom order and the barista will build it to taste.

Key Difference

Dutch Bros teas are typically shaken and lean brighter and more citrusy, and the cinnamon is an add-in rather than part of the brew. 7 Brew wins on baking-spice depth because the spice is steeped into the tea itself.

7 Brew Large (32oz): $4.75 = about $0.148 per oz. Starbucks Venti Iced Black Tea (24oz): roughly $3.95 = about $0.165 per oz. You get 8oz more drink at 7 Brew for $0.80 more and a lower per-ounce cost.

Best Time to Enjoy

This is a fall-and-winter drink that quietly works year-round. Hot, it is at its best on a cold morning or as a 7pm wind-down drink where 11mg of caffeine will not wreck your sleep - it is the closest thing 7 Brew offers to a dessert-adjacent nightcap. Iced, it shines in the afternoon slump window between 2pm and 4pm, when you want something with flavor and a small caffeine nudge but not the 156mg-plus hit of a cold brew. It also pairs unusually well with savory food - a spiced tea cuts through a burger or breakfast burrito far better than a sweet blended shake does.

Danielle Vasquez3 weeks ago

I stopped drinking espresso for anxiety reasons and honestly thought I was done with drive-thru drinks. Then a 7 Brew crew member suggested the Caramel Cinnamon Spice Tea and it saved my afternoons. Hot, it smells exactly like a cinnamon roll, and the caramel is brown-sugary instead of that fake butterscotch thing. Medium half-sweet is my daily and it is 40 calories. I have gotten three coworkers hooked on it.

Marcus Bell1 month ago

Really solid drink and a great deal at $4.75 for a 32oz Large. The cinnamon and clove come through nicely and it is not sickly sweet like most flavored teas. My only note is that the iced version gets watery in the last third once the ice melts, so I now order it with light ice and it holds up way better. Also worth knowing this has almost no caffeine, which is either the point or a dealbreaker depending on why you pulled in.

Kaitlyn Reyes2 months ago

It is a well-made tea, I just wanted something creamier. I saw caramel on the board and my brain expected a caramel latte texture, so the thin brewed-tea body caught me off guard. Adding a splash of oat milk fixed most of it for me. If you actually want cozy and rich, the chai is the better call. If you want light and spiced with basically no calories, this is exactly right - I just was not the right customer for it.

Copycat Recipe

How to Make the Caramel Cinnamon Spice Tea at Home

5 minutes

Ingredients

2 bags cinnamon spice black tea (Bigelow Cinnamon Stick, Celestial Seasonings Bengal Spice for caffeine-free, or Twinings Chai)
1 cinnamon stick and 2 whole cloves (optional, for extra depth)
8 oz hot water at 200F
2 to 3 tbsp Torani Caramel Syrup or Monin Caramel Syrup (Torani Sugar Free Caramel for the low-calorie version)
10 to 12 oz ice for the iced version
Optional: 1 to 2 tbsp oat milk for a lighter latte-style version

Instructions

1

Steep both tea bags plus the cinnamon stick and cloves in 8oz of 200F water for 5 full minutes. This makes a deliberately strong concentrate - normal-strength tea will taste watery over ice.

2

Remove the tea bags and whole spices. Do not squeeze the bags or the tea turns bitter and tannic.

3

Stir 2 tbsp of Torani Caramel Syrup into the hot concentrate while it is still warm so it dissolves completely. Taste and add the third tablespoon if you want 7 Brew standard sweetness.

4

For iced: fill a 24oz cup with ice, pour the sweetened concentrate over the top, then top with 6 to 8oz cold water and stir. For hot: top the concentrate with 12oz more hot water.

5

Optional finish: float 1 to 2 tbsp of oat milk on top and dust with ground cinnamon to mimic the milk-splash version regulars order.

Lighter Version

Use sugar-free syrups and skip whipped cream to save 100-150 calories.

Common Questions

How many calories are in a 7 Brew Caramel Cinnamon Spice Tea?

The 7 Brew Caramel Cinnamon Spice Tea contains 20 calories in a Kids (10oz), 40 calories in a Small (16oz), 80 calories in a Medium (24oz), and 120 calories in a Large (32oz). Every single calorie comes from the caramel syrup, since the brewed cinnamon spice tea base has none. That is also why carbs and sugar match exactly at each size: 5g, 10g, 20g, and 30g respectively, with 0g fat and 0g protein throughout. Ordering half-sweet cuts those numbers roughly in half, and switching to sugar-free caramel drops a Large to under 10 calories.

Does the 7 Brew Caramel Cinnamon Spice Tea have caffeine?

Yes, but only a small amount, and it comes entirely from the tea leaves rather than espresso. Kids, Small, and Medium sizes each contain approximately 11mg of caffeine, and a Large contains approximately 21mg. For context, a single 7 Brew espresso shot is about 60mg and a Medium 7 Brew cold brew can exceed 200mg, so this drink delivers roughly one-tenth to one-twentieth of a typical coffee order. That makes it a practical evening drink. If you want a caffeine kick, adding one espresso shot brings a Medium to roughly 71mg for only about 5 extra calories.

Is the 7 Brew Caramel Cinnamon Spice Tea dairy-free and vegan?

As served, yes. The standard build is brewed cinnamon spice tea, caramel syrup, water, and ice, with no milk, cream, or half-and-half - which is why the nutrition data lists no allergens and 0g fat and 0g protein at every size. That makes it one of the few flavored drinks at 7 Brew that is dairy-free by default rather than by substitution, unlike the smoothies and shakes which are built on a dairy ice cream mix. If you want a creamier version while staying vegan, ask for a splash of oat or almond milk for roughly 15 to 25 extra calories.

Can you get the Caramel Cinnamon Spice Tea hot at 7 Brew?

Yes. The Caramel Cinnamon Spice Tea is available both iced and hot at no price difference, which sets it apart from the cold brews and smoothies that are cold-only. The hot version is genuinely a different drink experience: heat releases the cinnamon and clove aromatics so the spice reads noticeably stronger, and the caramel goes rounder and softer instead of bright. Calories stay identical because nothing changes in the build - a hot Medium is still 80 calories and 20g sugar. Most regulars prefer hot from October through February and iced the rest of the year.

How do you order a low-sugar or keto version of the 7 Brew Caramel Cinnamon Spice Tea?

Ask for it with sugar-free caramel syrup and no milk. Because 100 percent of the sugar in this drink comes from one syrup, that single swap takes a Large from 120 calories and 30g sugar down to roughly 5 to 10 calories and 1 to 2g net carbs, which is fully keto-compatible. If your location is out of sugar-free caramel, ordering half-sweet is the next best option and cuts a Medium from 80 calories and 20g sugar to about 40 calories and 10g sugar. This is easier to modify than the smoothies, where fruit purees keep natural sugar in the drink no matter what.
