While a plain 'ol iced coffee takes the crown as the best drink for maintaining your figure, it's, well, boring. Your next best bet is a latte with 2% milk. The small amount of extra fat you'll get from choosing 2% over skim will help keep you full in addition to helping your body absorb valuable fat-soluble vitamins. The Caramel Ribbon Crunch Frappuccino, on the other hand, offers a glut of sugar that will send your blood sugar level soaring. Sprinkle cinnamon in your iced latte for a natural hint of sweetness and spend those saved calories elsewhere.
