This is equivalent to 150 million Americans. 30 million Americans drink specialty caffeine beverages daily; mocha, latte, espresso, café mocha, cappuccino, frozen/iced beverages, etc.

65% of all coffee is consumed during breakfast hours, meaning people will likely wake up on Monday itching for their first cup. Only 35% of people prefer to drink their coffee black, according to Espresso Business Solutions, while 65% prefer adding sugar or cream.

Can It Cure a Hangover?

Before having too much caffeine, it's worth noting that it may make your hangover worse. According to Driftaway Coffee, caffeine narrows blood vessels, which increases blood pressure. So, if you wake up with a headache, caffeine could make your head hurt even more.

It is also is a diuretic, and it's easy to become dehydrated if you drink too much. If you do decide you need some caffeine to wake up, make sure you pair it with a lot of water.
