    To be fair, they generally advertise it as regular lemonade and market it with an unlimited refill deal. I’ve drank 3 green teas before while at a Starbucks over a few hours. These lemonades contain far more caffeine than a similar sized cup of coffee. This is the second death linked to it now.

    It’s not wild to think you might drink 3 refills of a lemonade during a visit to a restaurant, but it is unusual to think you might drink 3 times the maximum recommended dose of caffeine doing so.

    Edit: back of the napkin math. 3 large lemonades = 12.3 cups of coffee.
