Pedro Pascal has finally addressed the online buzz surrounding his intensely caffeinated Starbucks order. The star of The Last of Us gained widespread attention in March 2023 when a fan-recorded video unintentionally showcased his preferred beverage—a venti iced quad espresso with additional ice and an astonishing six shots of espresso. The extraordinary caffeine content of this order elicited both admiration and concern from fans, transforming Pascal’s morning ritual into an unforeseen phenomenon on social media.

Pascal explains his viral morning coffee order

In the episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live that aired on Monday, the host discussed the viral coffee order of actor Pedro Pascal. As a close-up image of Pascal's coffee order label appeared on the screen, Kimmel remarked, “That’s quite an extraordinary order, by the way.” With a slightly embarrassed look, the 49-year-old actor responded, “I can’t express how violating this experience was!”

Pascal then explained the backstory behind his notable coffee order. He stated on the show, “There’s a lot of context as to why it has turned into six shots of espresso,” he explained. “It used to be a quad, but I think the cups got larger and, I don’t know, the shots became weaker. Eventually, it escalated to six,” as reported by US Weekly.

He further elaborated, “It was a deeply personal morning routine that I never intended for anyone to discover.” The actor also mentioned that he does not consume “more coffee for the rest of the day,” to which Kimmel humorously responded, “At this point, this isn’t even coffee — it’s practically a methaccino!”

In discussing his morning habits, Pascal remarked, “You take a sip, and it elevates your mood, allowing you to tackle emails and other tasks.” Two years prior, his coffee order sparked significant attention on the internet, eliciting a mix of admiration and concern. His venti beverage, which includes six shots of espresso, contains approximately 380 milligrams of caffeine—close to the FDA's recommended daily maximum of 400 milligrams for adults. This viral incident left his followers both entertained and anxious regarding his high caffeine consumption.
