If you haven't already heard, a story has been making the rounds on the interwebs claiming that someone had created "The World's Most Expensive Starbucks Drink".
Your friendly, neighborhood Admin team knew that this record could be broken and set out to prove as much. Check out the video below for all the disgusted wonderful reactions to this poisonous delicious concoction. We've also included the ingredient list beneath the video so you all know what we went through. We really don't encourage even trying to copy this. Seriously, this stuff was awful.

Logan Warren of Geek on Call went to Starbucks armed with a coupon for any drink he wanted, and emerged with a beverage that valued at $23.60. He's claiming it's the "most expensive Starbucks drink in the world, ever." How did he get the price so high? One word: Trenta.
Attempting to order the Most Expensive Starbucks Drink Possible is not a new game, but Starbucks' year-old, massively gigantic Trenta cup size ups the stakes considerably. The $23.60 drink consisted of: "one Java Chip Frappuccino in a Trenta cup, 16 shots of espresso, a shot of soy milk, caramel flavoring, banana puree, strawberry puree, vanilla beans, Matcha powder, protein powder, and a drizzle of caramel and mocha."
But how did it taste? According to Warren, "Tolerable, but not good. Imagine a coffee-based health food smoothie that will put you in the hospital if you drink it all. That's how it tastes … like Jillian Michaels with a touch of Chuck Norris." Also, he claims the drink has 1400mg of caffeine, which "If I drank this all at once, it would put me in the hospital." Your Starbucks is trying to kill you? Good thing he didn't actually have to pay for it.

We cannot stress enough the "DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME" message of this video. We're professionals and know the limits that should not be pushed. All joking aside, drinks of this caliber can be seriously harmful to your health if you consume all of the beverage. No one here at Gaia had any more than one or two sips of this drink. The drink itself contains enough caffeine to potentially cause a heart attack at best so please, please don't try put your body through the torture of consuming any drink similar to this, especially in its entirety.
