Starbucks Goes Big Gulp With The 31-oz ‘Trenta’ Size

Starbucks, finally succumbing to America’s need for excess, will officially launch their ‘Trenta’ size beverage nationwide May 3. The Trenta is 7 ounces larger than Starbucks’ “Venti”, which currently is its largest size.

With fear of 31 ounces of scorching hot coffee and bigger lawsuits looming, the new size will only be available for iced coffee, iced tea and iced tea lemonade drinks.

And, for those who still don’t participate in Starbucks’ pretentious ordering system, let’s all agree that the ‘Trenta’ will now be ‘Extra Large’. Unless you’d really like to be a wiseass and just order the ‘Big Gulp’. It’s no wonder your barista hates you.
