These Are The 10 Most Expensive Starbucks Drinks In The World
Starbucks is the largest and, arguably, one of the most successful coffeehouse chains in the world. The word itself has become synonymous with coffee and is the go-to place for coffee lovers who need a little pick-me-up caffeine shot in the middle of a workday. The multinational chain and roastery reserves originated in Seattle, Washington, in 1971. Since then, it has expanded to countries outside the United States, with over 33,833 stores spread worldwide. Although there are tons of upscale coffee chains out there, Starbucks remains the favorite of many.
Because of its success, the coffeehouse chain can constantly introduce various orders to its patrons. Its baristas are also very skilled in creating custom-made complimentary drinks for each individual who visits the store. However, some customers like to push their baristas' limits regarding what they can order. Therefore, social media introduced multiple challenges, including the Most Expensive Starbucks Drink Challenge. Curious to see which orders you can try out for yourself? Keep reading to find out!
10 The Sexogintuple Vanilla Bean Mocha Frappuccino
The tenth most expensive drink on the list is the Sexogintuple Vanilla Bean Mocha Frappuccino.

Andrew went to order his new coffee creation using his Starbucks gold member loyalty card and armed with a 3.7-liter container. The drink contains 60 shots of espresso, a shot of vanilla, and the venti mocha Frappuccino recipe. Unfortunately, the glass cost $54.77, and it took him five days to finish.

Sameera, a medical student, ordered the Venti Caramel Crunch Frappuccino to keep her wits about her as she headed to her classes for the day. Her custom-made Starbucks drink cost her $57.75 and contained 60 shots of espresso, caramel syrup, white mocha, Tazo chai, hazelnut, vanilla beans, and an extra drizzle of caramel, and was placed in her 1.5-gallon container that came with its cork.

The coffee included 77 shots of espresso, caramel drizzle, white mocha, hazelnut drizzle, and vanilla bean. Although it cost $75.35 to make, Jarrod got this drink for free with his Starbucks birthday rewards. Now, that's some serious good luck.
7 101-shot Grande Latte
The name itself should elicit fear among non-coffee drinkers and coffee-drinkers alike and they enjoy hanging out in expensive and exquisite coffee shops . But one man named William Lewis showed no fear as he ordered his custom-made Starbucks drink. This was also William's first attempt at the most expensive Starbucks drink challenge. He carried his giant white cup and ordered the glass, which contained 99 extra shots of espresso, 17 pumps of vanilla syrup, mocha, and matcha powder for the extra kick. It should've cost him $83.75, too. However, William enjoyed the drink for free with his rewards card.
6 100 Shot Caramel Frappuccino
Sometimes, people need not one espresso shot to keep them awake but 100 espresso shots to make them feel alive. That's precisely what one man named Reene did one day. He entered his favorite Starbucks café armed with a large mug and unflinchingly ordered the $86.55 drink. The caramel Frappuccino's contents included caramel syrup, coffee, whole milk, whipped cream, caramel sauce, extra ice, and 100 shots of espresso. He also added more Frappuccino chips as a special treat for himself.
5 Quad Espresso
When a challenge on social media is trending, people can bet that the younger and deep-pocketed generation is trying it out for themselves. So even though it's a little reckless, two young girls bought the Quad Espresso in a bid to get a Starbucks birthday rewards card. Once they did, they aptly named their new creation the Rewards Drink Quad Espresso. This $92.55 custom-ordered coffee contained 120 shots of espresso and nothing else. However, the girls did take a Starbucks glass with them and shared the drink using two extra long straws.
4 White Mocha Frappuccino
A definite Starbucks favorite is the classic White Mocha Frappuccino. However, one man took it up a notch and created his bid to get the most expensive Starbucks drink, one that cost $101.50 to make. The man, named Justin, entered a Starbucks store with his giant plastic container. It was reported that a small crowd had gathered as he ordered 112 shots of espresso, 55 pumps of Frappuccino roast, 70 pumps of white mocha, and four pumps of caramel syrup. In addition, he added five bananas and 20 grams of protein powder to keep the drink as healthy as possible.
3 Thomas’ White Mocha Frappuccino
Another guy by the name of Thomas beat Justin's previous bid by just a smidge. He ordered the same White Chocolate Mocha Frappuccino – in a venti size – but had it placed in a large metal milk bucket. The drink contained 102 shots of espresso, 54 servings of Frappuccino roast, 70 pumps of white mocha, four pumps of caramel syrup, five bananas, and 5.5. tablespoons of protein powder. Then, he added extra Frappuccino chips and liquid caramel for good measure. The drink cost $102.04 to make, but Thomas got it for free using his rewards card.
2 Grande Americano
People can expect social media influencers to get in on the clout if it's a social media challenge. Elton Castle, a former Vine star and is now a famous YouTuber with 3.6 million subscribers, ordered his infamous $102.15 Starbucks coffee creation and uploaded it on YouTube. Next, he took a small, white, almost opaque, trash bin to his nearby store. Once there, he ordered 102 shots of espresso and a splash of caramel drizzle to soften the bitterness of the monstrosity he had created. He and his friends attempted to split the order but could not finish the drink.
1 Super Venti Flat White
Finally, the Super Venti Flat White is the last one on this list, which costs $148.99. It was ordered by William Lewis, the same man who ordered the 101-shot Grande latte from before. William showed up at his local Starbucks store, giant coffee mug in his arms, and unwaveringly ordered a Super Venti Flat White with a whopping 170 espresso and a dash of coconut milk to improve the taste. This drink contained almost 11,000mg of caffeine, which is dangerous and insane, but hey, at least he finally holds the record for the most expensive Starbucks drink in the world.
