Red Eye...Black Eye

I was at Starbucks near wall street the other day. I heard someone order a "Red Eye". Which, as a pretty regular coffee drinker, I was surprised that I had never heard of such a drink. I chalk it up to the general aging process and growing more out of touch with pop-culture.

Anyway, it turns out a Red-Eye is a cup of coffee with a shot of espresso in it. A Black is a cup of coffee with 2 shots of espresso.
