    I think the key is that a large in Australia and a large in America can be vastly different.

    Comparison of American vs Australian drink sizes. The American servings are approximately twice as large as the Australian servings for small, medium, and large drinks

      Wait…the smallest size in US is larger than the largest size in Oz? That aligns perfectly with my world view for once.

      Honestly it all depends on where you’re at when your ordering. For example, that “Large” shown there is what you get at a movie theater when ordering a Small.

      thirst quenched by 650 ml
