Just Reading Pedro Pascal's Starbucks Order Will Send Your Heart Into Overdrive
Let's just say, this is an insane amount of caffeine.
Starbucks may have just rolled out its spring menu, but Pedro Pascal is sticking with his own unhinged creation.
The actor was caught out and about recently by a TikTok user named Alexis, who had the fortune of running into the Internet's Daddy while he was out on a coffee run. She shared a quick video of their encounter set to the song "Big Boys" on the social media app last month, and much like the rest of his actions, it quickly captured the internet's attention.
Many were enthralled with his personality, with one comment reading, "He’s always smiling when interacting with fans ??????," but one eagle-eyed viewer zoomed in to uncover a vital piece of information about the Last of Us star: his coffee order.
"He drinks 6 shots over ice? Damn that’s intense," she wrote.
The next day, Alexa shared a screenshot of the ticket attached to his cup for everyone to see clearly.

"Daddy needs his coffee every morning to carry the entire world and a fandom over his shoulders," she captioned the update, which sent his fans spiraling.
"our mans is CAFFEINATED," one wrote.
"so if I survive drinking this do I become Pedro Pascal?" one joked, while another admitted, "I’d have heart palpitations for days ??"
"IS HE OKAY????" someone else worried.
According to Consumer Reports, a single shot of espresso at Starbucks contains 75 mg of caffeine, amounting to 450 mg total in Pascal's drink of choice. Meanwhile, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recommends a daily limit of 400 mg.
Overconsumption of caffeine can lead to headaches, dizziness, insomnia, abnormal heartbeats, high blood pressure, dehydration and more, though side effects are not consistent across all individuals at all times.
So long answer, short—maybe!
Alexa went on to have a lot of fun with the revelation, creating her own version of the "Pedro Pascal Car Trend" and other memes before eventually trying it out for herself, admitting that it was actually pretty good.
But taste aside, viewers were still worried.
"Did your heart feel like it was going to explode?" one commenter wanted to know.
"If I drink that I’m going to end up in hospital with a heart failure ??," lamented another.
"Are you still alive? ??," someone else asked, to which she replied, "Barely."
Aside from The Last of Us, you can catch Pascal on Disney+'s The Mandalorian.
