"Oh, I haven’t seen this cafe before. Oh, there’s one more. Am I living in a caffeine-obsessed country?

While strolling through the city, I can't help but notice the bustling cafes filled with people, prompting me to ponder: 'There are coffee shops on every block, and are they still not enough?' This thought sparked my curiosity about the daily coffee consumption habits of Americans. Upon researching, I discovered that the number of American adults who enjoy coffee is currently at its peak in more than two decades, as reported by Sprudge, a prominent coffee news outlet. It's truly fascinating to witness the enduring growth of coffee consumption, reflected in the frequent emergence of new coffee shops.

The surge in coffee culture spans across different age groups, with notable increases seen among various demographics. A recent study revealed a 6% rise among those aged 60 and older, along with a 4.5% increase in both the 25 to 39 and 40 to 59 age brackets. It's evident that I reside in a country that is undeniably caffeine-obsessed.
