Starbucks! (Posted on 2007-08-18) Difficulty: 2 of 5
I like my Starbucks and usually order an Americano, which is made by adding hot water to shots of espresso. The ratios they use are 2 shots for a Tall (12 oz), 3 shots for a Grande (16 oz), and 4 shots for a Venti (20 oz).

If you do the math that is different strengths of coffee depending upon the size ordered. What simple rule do I use when ordering any size to ensure I always receive my coffee of a consistent strength?

Trying as hard as I can yet still can't work it out.
I think I need a stronger coffee - gimme one - any size with an extra shot . . .
Nope. Buzzing but can't seem to get the answer.
