1 Tall -- The 'Tall' is the other original Starbucks drink size. 2  When Starbucks started, the Tall was basically a Large. 3  Now, it's basically a Small. 4  In fact, if you order a 'Small' at Starbucks, you get a Tall. 5  A Starbucks Tall measures in at 12 US fluid ounces (350 milliliters). (The other was 'Tall.' Makes sense.) It's a mere eight fluid ounces (240 mL), and aside from the Demi (which is mostly a size espresso shots), it's the smallest drink size available at Starbucks. 2  For many people who drink coffee at home, six to eight ounces is a standard cup size.
Best Answer: they are trying to sound italian. the founders modeled their coffee philosophy after an inspired italian journey. - short (8 oz) is actually a real size, smaller than tall, that's not listed on the menu, but that you can order. - tall (12 oz) is therefore taller than short. - grande (16 oz) is supposed to sound italian, and by italian standards, is huge (or grand). italians would probably never drink anything bigger than a short, and the tall size would be pushing it for them.
