Pedro Pascal Reflects on Viral Six-Shot Espresso Order

The actor humorously addressed the 2023 viral moment on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live,' calling it a 'violating' exposure of his private morning ritual.

Pedro Pascal's Starbucks coffee order, a venti iced quad espresso with six shots, went viral in 2023 after a fan-captured video revealed the label on his cup.
During a March 24, 2025, appearance on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live,' Pascal described the exposure of his personal coffee ritual as 'violating' and provided context for the drink's evolution.
Pascal explained that his order grew from four to six shots of espresso due to perceived changes in cup size and espresso strength, emphasizing that it is his only coffee for the day.
The highly caffeinated drink contains approximately 380 milligrams of caffeine, close to the FDA's recommended daily limit of 400 milligrams for adults, sparking both admiration and concern online.
The viral moment highlights the intersection of celebrity privacy, social media amplification, and public fascination with mundane details of famous individuals' lives.
