Ahh, Starbucks. Everyone's morning must-do. Land of the $4 cappuccino and... $23.60 Frappuccino?

A man from Nacogdoches, Texas is bragging about having bought the 'most expensive Starbucks drink in the world' at $23.60.

According to his blog, Logan Warren, 22, decided to use his Starbucks Rewards card to see how much he could charge on a 31-ounce cup at the massively popular coffee house.

Warren said the drink was a Java Chip Frappuccino in a Trenta cup, with 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.

A picture of a receipt confirms Warren racked up a $23.60 bill, but did not have to pay a dime as Starbucks offers free drinks to rewards customers on their birthday.

Warren says the drink contained 1,400 milligrams of caffeine. "If I drank this all at once, it would put me in the hospital," Warren wrote.

But... How did it taste? Warren said it was "tolerable, but not good."

“Imagine a coffee-based health food smoothie that will put you in the hospital if you drink it all,” he wrote. “That’s how it tastes…like Jillian Michaels with a touch of Chuck Norris.”
