One of the things that makes Starbucks so well liked by people everywhere is the amount of customization you can do with your drink. But is there such a thing as too much customization?

Thanks to Shaun Fawson for this week's featured art,"Moose Barista." You can find more of their work on Instagram @shaun_fawson and at @tdlapodcast.
