venti
Italian for score
Venti is Starbucks' proprietary term for a twenty-ounce drink size, larger than grande and smaller than trenta.
The Italian word for twenty, it joined Starbucks' pseudo-Italian sizing system in the 1990s.
Outside Starbucks, the term is rarely used: I'll have a venti iced coffee.
The word has become shorthand for corporate-speak absurdity in size naming.
