While Coffee Growers Suffer Drought, Millennials Guzzle Record Amounts

RENEE MONTAGNE, HOST:

And according to research firm Datassential, millennial coffee consumption is reaching record heights, drinking 44 percent of the coffee consumed in America. And this high demand, along with droughts in coffee-growing countries, is slowing the global coffee supply to a drip. It's MORNING EDITION. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.
