It is a siren.

The logo on the coffee cup that Gibbs likes to drink does look very similar to the Starbucks logo although I don't think they ever truly say where he gets his coffee from. It is very common for companies such as Starbucks, Pepsi, Nike, etc. to advertise in tv shows and movies.
Yes, the Starbucks coffee logo is inspired by the character Starbuck from Moby Dick. The logo features a twin-tailed siren or mermaid, which was chosen to represent the company's nautical theme and tie back to the seafaring roots of the character Starbuck.
There is a long, involved history of how the logo was developed. Be sure to read the story of how the Starbucks siren became less naughty, here: http://www.deadprogrammer.com/starbucks-logo-mermaid The wikipedia article will tell you briefly about how the mermaid lost her tail and her navel and chest were "cleaned up" because of an embarrassed elementary school principal. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starbucks
Do you mean the logo? Because the Starbucks logo was based on the charicter "Starbucks" from the book Mobie Dick. They recently changed the logo though.

logo
Starbucks has nearly 100 registered trademarks, but the most familiar is their mermaid logo.
It's a reference to Baubo who shamelessly jested with Demeter to cheer her while she mourned her daughter, but what is commonly called the "Baubo siren" refers to the logo of Starbucks coffee.
Baldwin, Siegel, and Bowker chose the name Starbucks in honor of Starbuck, the coffee-loving first mate in Herman Melville's Moby Dick(so company legend has it), and because they thought the name evoked the romance of the high seas and the seafaring tradition of the early coffee traders. The new company's logo, designed by an artist friend, was a two-tailed mermaid encircled by the store's name. well i think thats right well anyway thats were the name starbucks came from.
Oh honey, you've been watching too many conspiracy theory videos. The Starbucks coffee sign is not demonic, it's just a green mermaid trying to lure you in for an overpriced latte. If you're seeing demons in your morning coffee, you might want to switch to decaf.
