Caffeine Thread

[medisinn]

Hmm, let's see if I set this poll up right. Anyway, I'm curious what other people enjoy as far as coffee, energy drinks, tea, etc. At my work, for example, it seems to be a pretty good spread, although there are also people that function with no caffeine at all.

If you do prefer energy drinks, for example, what's your favorite brand or flavor? Perhaps you enjoy a certain grind of coffee? A particular type of tea?

For me personally, I definitely need caffeine of some sort to function during the workday or if I'm in school. I like energy drinks and coffee, but lately I've been getting Gfuel when it's on sale and using that. I have a handful of flavors, but the Elden Ring "Crimson Tears" Prickly Pear flavor is my favorite.

Dark roast coffee taken black for me. I enjoy teas also, but I usually drink chamomile tea at night, which isn't really a source of energy.

When we get deep into summer here, I'll sometimes substitute an energy drink for something cold, but it's not my preference.

As per my national duty, I am a big fan of Tim Hortons Iced Capps. I used to have one almost every day for my caffeine in the morning, but I have since cut down to 2, maybe 3 a week. Now I mainly drink iced coffee, as I don't actually really like the taste of coffee that much.

Fine with anything but if I have to choose, probably tea. Used to drink standard black tea, then I try darjeeling as a joke, now it's my fave.

Tea is a lot more popular in my country than coffee. I've never drank coffee in my life.

 

[RageBurner]

Coffee, black and just a smidge of sugar to balance the bitterness.

I don't usually drink anything that's hot unless it's winter and Energy Drinks taste like piss to me so i mostly stay clear of anything that has large ammounts of caffeine on it.

Pop or sodas for me.

I just LOOOOVE C8H10N4O2.

A few years back, I was rendered jobless because of the pandemic and had to resort to doing entire meals out of coffee (plus whatever I could manage to chew on). I don't just "like" coffee and tea, I have survived specifically because of them.

I survive purely on protein powder, milk and water.

Half a sitting... no time for full sittings!

I drink mineral water and alcohol pretty much exclusively so no caffeine for me.

I used to think I had a wonderful relationship with caffeine, but now I realize it would be better described as 'really toxic.' I love the way it helps me function properly, but I've also come to understand how susceptible I am to it. I always thought I had shaky hands... turns out it was due to too much coffee intake.

 

[Vetusomaru]

The only caffeine I get is from frape coffee. Still I should stop it since it's not so healthy and I kinda fed up with its taste and yet I keep drinking it for some reason while I've stopped drinking unhealthy stuff like coke and stopped eating junk food like potato chips.

Nothing beats the numbness of waking up than a coffee with some milk and one of sugar with a pastry

BTW, those who didn't voted coffee, beware... he is near (JK)

That's interesting. I don't think it affects my motor skils, but maybe it makes more irritable (but in my defense most people are very skilled at being irritating, too).

Tea is my usual go to but will have a coffee on occasion.
