DAVID GREENE, HOST:

Good morning. I'm David Greene. Ever joke with a colleague about his or her coffee order? Going to Starbucks, David? Great. Bring me a venti, iced vanilla latte with extra ice and an extra shot. That's nothing compared to what a man in Dallas ordered. He's a member of the loyalty program and was entitled to a free drink. He went big, ordering what is now the world's most expensive Starbucks beverage - a sexagintuple, vanilla bean, mocha frappuccino. The bucket-sized beverage would've cost about $55. It had 60 shots of espresso. It's MORNING EDITION.
