Ridiculous $50 Starbucks Drink Order Goes Viral

I don't know how some folks do it. If I was a barista at Starbucks and someone ordered this drink, I'd flat out say NOPE. AND if I was the person in line behind this guy, I'm sure I'd say something. TikTok user @instrumentality.project went viral three days ago after posting his unique order in a video, asking his followers if he should really order the unbelievable drink.

According to Newsweek, the insane drink order totaled to $53.95. Over $50 for a DRINK?! Nope. The drink order has many reacting, most shocked that you would even order a drink like this.

So what costs over $50 at Starbucks? Here's the order: 12 bananas, light ice, caramel drizzle, four pumps of caramel brulee sauce, caramel brulee topping, extra whipped cream, cinnamon dolce sprinkles, chestnut praline topping, coconut, 12 affogato-style shots, holiday sugar sprinkles, red and green sprinkle topping, chocolate malt powder, cinnamon powder, chocolate curls topping. I don't even know how this all fits in one cup!

Millions of people have viewed the drink order, and most think it's outrageous. The TikToker attempted to order his drink in real life but was ultimately unsuccessful. After contacting Starbucks directly, he was able to get the stars back for his failed order. Now he is planning on using them on a "budget friendly" version of the drink despite it still costing $21.56.

The first word that comes to mind is obnoxious. Some folks take the whole "the customer is always right" thing too far. And to me, this is just way too much stuff for a drink!
