what does "triple-shot cappuccino" mean?
I went to a Starbucks store and I heard a girl, who was after my where I sat, bought a "triple-shot cappuccino" but I didn't understand what does it mean?
I looked at menu but didn't have any "triple-shot".
Could you explain it to me?
Thank you.

I'm not sure what's more surprising -- that there is a Starbucks in Hanoi, or that the cashiers there will take your order in English....

A "shot" of coffee is 30ml of espresso coffee. So the girl wanted 90ml of straight espresso coffee in her cappuccino. That's quite strong!

Three shots of espresso coffee, with cappuccino style frothed milk.

I would like to add the following: on average one shot of espresso has 75 ml grams of caffeine, 3 or triple shots have 225 ml grams, preferably you shouldn't reach the level of 500 ml grams in your blood. Thanks

*'Duodecuple.'
Pretty confident I've never used that word before.
