24oz Venti Iced Coffees Are Good, Deal

Summer is almost here! Is there anything more enjoyable than a Venti Iced Coffee in the hot summer months? (Warning: math content ahead.) ::UPDATED::

• $2.60 cup-o-joe (approx)

  12oz Ecotainer into a 24oz Venti Iced Coffee Starbucks cup. (Standard full cup of ice)

• Cost of 1 Gallon (5.3 cups) of Starbucks Iced Coffee?

  

  Drum roll..
  $13.78

• But it only holds 12oz of coffee you say...?

  That's correct..
  For 5.3 Iced Coffees, we are paying $6.89 for ice.

• So Starbucks, what's up?

  Why does an ice coffee cost one-third more than hot coffee? Best,
