You won't find any exact amount; even if SB gave a number, it would still be an average or guess.
You can easily figure out the approximate amount of caffeine with a few question on any drink:
1) each shot of espresso has around 50-60mg of caffeine
2) every 6oz of brewed coffee has around 120-180mg
2a) if the use cold-brewed coffee (as they should for iced coffee), it has about 30% less caffeine so it would be around 80-120mg per 6oz serving instead.
Just multiply the shots/coffee ounces to find the caffeine in any drink you order.
Roast my own beans and have seven ways to brew.
I would assume more than a normal cup. Traditionally, it's prepared like French Press coffee, which has more caffeine than drip. It just depends on if Starbucks lets it steep for hours, which has more caffeine, or just goes with the quicker version of pouring regular hot drip coffee over ice.
I bet a well steeped french press would have the same content. Is that listed?
