![]() In 2018, for example, a YouTuber did this "experiment" using plastic Starbucks cups that the coffee chain uses for its cold beverages. These videos actually use tricks (some cups may be pre-filled with liquid) or deceptive camera techniques (cups may be switched when they are moved out of frame) to make it appear as though customers are getting the same amount of liquid, no matter what size of cup they order. These videos do not show any type of "scam," or prove that different sized cups at fast-food restaurants or Starbucks actually contain the same amount of liquid. In 2017, another version of the prank focused on the Jack in the Box restaurant chain. comp sales were down 5 compared to being down 9 in the previous quarter, Starbucks CEO Kevin Johnson said during the call. An increased focus on improving the drive-thru experience will only help Starbucks further improve sales. We first debunked the prank in 2020, after a video went viral on TikTok that supposedly showed how the small, medium, and large cup sizes at McDonald’s hold the same amount of liquid. Starbucks expects handhelds to be in 500 stores by the end of February. This video is just the latest iteration of an internet prank that has been going around since at least 2016.

STARBUCKS SIZES: Extra Small Short Small Tall Medium Grande Large Venti Extra Large Trenta. A Starbucks Tall is typically the smallest size of cold drink available in supermarkets it measures 12 fl oz and has 340 ml or 1.44 cups of liquid. While we're not entirely sure how the video above was created - our best guess is that the larger cup (B) had a false bottom to take up some volume space - we can say for certain that this video does not accurately represent the amount of liquid in two different sized Starbucks cups. ![]() The various cup sizes at Starbucks do not hold the same amount of liquid. ![]()
