The average cup of joe will run you more than $3.50 in Arizona, per a new analysis by restaurant tech company Toast.
The big picture: That's 43 cents higher than the national average and dangerously close to our notoriously overpriced neighbor California, where the average cup is $3.88 — the highest in the continental U.S.
Why it matters: Inflation can seem most frustrating when it hits our everyday staples.
Between the lines: Prices get crazier if you want a fancier drink.
- The average Arizona latte is $5.59 and a cold brew clocks in at $5.51.
Zoom out: You'll find the cheapest coffee in Nebraska, at $2.12.
