It doesn’t make sense chemically. You don’t have enough dopamine blockers in your body for that much caffiene. One or two shots will fill up all their active sites. The excess is just poison for the body to deal with. And then the next day your body will start producing even more dopamine blockers, so you will feel incredibly tired and unable to get up in the morning, and then you really will start to need 3+ shots before you can get up.

As usual, there’s a reason things are done the way they are.

I wonder what the price tag of it will be.

Was really tired one night last year, so stopped at Dunkin Donuts and ordered a 3 shot in one cup. I think it was around $14 bucks.

Long story short, it wasn’t a good idea. Though I was a bit more awake, I was hit with horrible stomach craps about a half hour later, and spent the next 2 hours on a rooftop, fearful of climbing down the ladder for fear of “messing” myself. I think it took me 10 minutes to climb down... s l o w l y.

Not something I would do again.

Hmmm...
Once the NYC food police catch wind of this, it’ll be gone. The Dieci’s days are numbered.

I’ve never done that, but I do make a mean mocha out of pre-chilled espresso (so I don’t water the drink down with ice just to cool the espresso). In a large glass it’s about 8 ounces of espresso, 4-6 ounces milk, ice, and a bit of chocolate syrup and sugar.

I loved the family area in the hospital where two of my granddaughters were born. It had a coffee by the cup machine with a wide choice of freshly ground brews; my favorite was a double espresso plus cappuccino. Helped me keep up with the two year old.

Can the 24 oz “shot” of Jack Daniels be far behind?

Sheesh, there’s a reason for established “doses.” Just ask Philippus Theophrastus Aureolus Bombast von Hohenheim (coolest name ever), a.k.a. Paracelsus.

770 milligrams of caffeine is going to get someone in trouble.
