Starbucks Trenta

Recommended Posts

Iced drinks always look good but you never finished them no matter what size.

 

Also, theyre for homosexuals.

 

I always finish pretty much any food/drink product i buy.

Does it piss anyone else off that they named their sizes after make-believe Italian words?

they're real words

 

grande = large

venti = twenty

trenta = thirty

 

i don't really understand why they named their drinks after numbers though?

i found this to be the truth in my case. starbucks addict

 

Starbucks must be banking on the theory that the people who buy its coffee don't just need coffee, they need Starbucks coffee, which packs a higher caffeine punch than many competitors. The Wall Street Journal earlier this year sent samples of coffee from Starbucks, 7-Eleven, and Dunkin' Donuts to Central Analytical Laboratories. The lab reported that a 16-ounce Starbucks house blend coffee contained 223 milligrams of caffeine, compared with 174 and 141 milligrams in comparable amounts of Dunkin' Donuts and 7-Eleven coffee, respectively. According to the Journal, the average Starbucks coffee drink contains 320 milligrams of caffeine. (This chart from the Center for Science in the Public Interest shows different measurement levels, including the scary finding that a 16-ounce Starbucks grande has nearly three times as much caffeine as a No-Doz.)

I don't care about this in any way but I've already read about it 3 times today. It's for drinks with lots of ice in them. Don't buy it if you don't want it.

I just enjoyed 8 oz of home-brewed organic ancient tree loose leaf green tea from yunnan, motherfucker. crisp and fresh with notes of toasted chestnut and wild orchid all up in this bitch.

I just looked it up, and venti and trenta are italian for 20 and 30, respectively.
