"Short" is the smallest size Starbuck's offers, but you'll only get this if you ask for it by
name. If you do order a "small" the barista will likely give you a "
Tall" because anyone asking for a "small" will get the "
Tall", which is the smallest size for which the prices are actually on the menu. Also only their hot drinks can be served in the "Short" size. Sound confsing? Yeah, I hate Starbuck's too!
