How old were you when you started drinking coffee?

The age range is pretty surprising! 36% of coffee drinkers said they were 21 years old when they started. 28% said they were between 17 & 20. 17% between 13 & 16. Here’s where it really gets interesting. 7% said they started drinking java between 10 and 12 years old. 3% said they started drinking coffee regularly when they were less than 6 years old!

By the way. The myth that drinking coffee at a young age, is just that…a myth.
