I remember when my mom yelled at me for buying a $3 coffee a few years back,  I was in the drive-thru at Starbucks, now at Starbucks I can order a coffee twice that amount! Starbucks has great coffee and teas and yes we all pay to much for that "white cup" of coolness. But you have to admit it when you have a Starbucks coffee you seem to be in a better mood and you feel energized or just really caffeinated.

The average cost of coffee at Starbucks is around $3 bucks, for all coffee snobs that's nothing and most would skip lunch and just have a Starbucks.

But do you think $7 is to much for a cup of coffee? That is the price that Starbucks is rolling out for the new "Costa Rica Palmilera" the beans are rare and very high demand.

[The] price is based on rarity, demand, and green coffee prices," a Starbucks spokesperson told Yahoo! Shine. "This coffee is not widely available, so, like an opportunity to try a wine where there is limited production, demand is high."

Would you pay $7 for a cup of coffee? (I would-just don't tell my mom)
