Yuppie Speedball

An unwise mix of overpriced coffee and prescription sleep aids.

Traveler 1: Why are you taking a Starbucks double espresso with you on the plane? I thought you said you were going to try and sleep off your jet lag?
Traveler 2: Oh that won't be a problem, I'll take an Ambien.
Traveler 1: Is that safe? That's like some kind of Yuppie Speedball.
Traveler 2: Like what killed Jim Belushi?
Traveler 1: No, you mean John Belushi, but yes.

Yuppie speedball

All the other definitions here are incorrect. A yuppie speedball is a coffee and a mimosa (an upper and downer, like a real speedball), often consumed at an overpriced brunch attended by yuppies.

I’ll have a grapefruit mimosa and a cup of fair trade coffee, I need the yuppie speedball today
