Ramblings of a Twenty-Something.

I haven't talked to my brother, Jeff Bernat, in a while. And this is what I get...

Jeff:hey
what do people usually order when they say "extra shot of" ....
like whats the extra shot of?
Me:Espresso?
You mean for coffee or lattes?
Jeff:latte
extra shot of what??
Me:One espresso shot is the equivalent amount of caffeine in one cup of coffee.
An extra shot of "espresso".
Jeff:k
thanks
Me:A tall drink at Starbucks has one shot.
A grande has two.
A venti has two.
When you ask for an extra shot, you ask for another shot of espresso added on.
Jeff:do some people get grande with an extra shot?
Me:Yes, that's called a "triple grande".
A grande with triple shots. Because it normally comes with only two.
That means, you just want more caffeine.
Jeff:k
thanks
bye
