Woman Files a $5 million lawsuit against Starbucks for putting too much ice in her drink


An Illinois woman is reportedly suing Starbucks for $5 million over the amount of ice it puts in customers’ drinks.

Stacy Pincus accuses the coffee chain of packing almost half of their cold beverages with ice as a means to skimp on serving actual coffee to customers. 
Starbucks' cold drink cups have three black lines on the outside that are intended to be fill lines for the beverage, and baristas typically fill the rest of the cup with ice.
The lawsuit states that liquid filled to the top black line on a Venti cup typically only gives a customer 14 ounces of beverage, even though the stated ounce total on the menu is 24.
The lawsuit also takes issue with the fact that iced drinks cost more, even though they have less total liquid.
In a statement, Starbucks said it believes the plaintiff's claims are "without merit."
"Our customers understand and expect that ice is an essential component of any 'iced' beverage. If a customer is not satisfied with their beverage preparation, we will gladly remake it," spokesman Reggie Borges said.

Breaking News: Maria Sharapova banned for two years for failed drugs test

Maria Sharapova has been banned from playing tennis for two years by the International Tennis Federation after she tested positive for meldonium at the Australian Open in January.. The heart disease drug, which 29-year-old Sharapova says she has been taking since 2006 for health issues, became a banned substance on 1 January 2016. The ban has been backdated to January 26, the day the Russian failed her drugs test in Melbourne - meaning it will end on January 25, 2018.  The five-time Grand Slam winner says she will appeal against the ban.
