Coffee demands on the rise

As the world drinks more of it, you might expect a jolt in coffee prices over the next few years.

The head of the International Coffee Organization tells the Wall Street Journal that coffee demand could spike to nearly 25% by 2020.

Coffee consumption is growing in places like India, China and Latin America as they become more westernized.

That puts pressure on coffee growers and will likely push prices higher.
