Drinking coffee is what gets four in five coffee drinkers out of bed in the morning, according to a new survey.

Americans love coffee, so much so that just the idea of drinking it in the morning is what gets 81% of coffee drinkers out of bed, according to a new survey. It finds that desire for the buzzy beverage has them drinking an average of 460 cups of coffee a year.

The poll of 2-thousand U.S. coffee drinkers also reveals:

• Hot coffee is the favorite style of coffee for about half (48%) of respondents, followed by cold brew (20%), iced coffee (18%), frozen or blended coffee (7%) and espresso-based drinks (5%).
• Just over a third (36%) of social media users admit they’d rather give up their accounts than give up coffee (25%).
• Americans love their coffee drinks so much that 48% have attempted to recreate their favorite beverage from the cafe at home and 92% of them were happy with the results.
• Only 27% of coffee drinkers would rate the drinks they make at home as “excellent.”
• The biggest struggles they face with DIY coffee at home is measuring the right amount of coffee (48%), choosing the correct grind size (48%) and selecting the correct filter (44%).
• Still, 74% are still willing to try out new coffee brewing methods, but their biggest concerns are the ease of preparation (61%), the cost of equipment (51%) and the prep and brew time (44%).
• That may be why 71% say it’s important to have their coffee made by a skilled barista.
