BuzzFeed reports that "Alexander Forouzesh, a Los Angeles resident and defender of the people, has lost his legal battle to stop Starbucks from filling its cups with too much ice. That ice, his lawsuit alleged, robbed thirsty customers of the precious ounces of fluid they paid for and are entitled to." A California judge has dismissed the suit, saying that "a reasonable consumer would understand that the iced beverage that consumer might order from Starbucks will contain some portion of liquid and some portion of ice.”
However, the story also notes that "Starbucks isn’t in the clear just yet. There’s another ice-related lawsuit against the coffee chain in Illinois, and 'two claiming it underfills hot drinks by over-aerating the milk'."
