That caramel frappuccino with extra coffee and skim is getting a price hike.

Starbucks is raising drink prices today, the Associated Press reports. Most areas of the country will pay about 10 cents more for a simple cup of brewed coffee.

All the other drinks — the ones that keep people waiting in line — will cost between 5 and 20 cents more in the United States. Food prices should remain the same.

Starbucks also raised the price of its drinks last year.
