I used to drink massive amounts of coffee, but I’m slowly transitioning to tea. I don’t think the caffeine does me any favors mood-wise, but I still really love the flavor of coffee. What do you drink?
If I can avoid it I do. Sadly because I have poor sleep, I need at least 1 coffee every morning to stay awake.
I drink coffee and strong one too. So strong that my place of work had to implement limits on coffee grounds in the machine otherwise my coworkers couldn’t drink it.
That being said, caffeine can be a removed. I don’t drink coffee after 15h so that I don’t fuck up my sleeping.
I drink a pot in the morning , then 1 - 3 energy drinks through out the day. I really want Turkish coffee though …
yeah turkish/armenian coffee is nice. Cuban and vietnamese as well, very very strong stuff. I don’t know how you do energy drinks after all that coffee
I’m just used to it , but I have been cutting down a lot now and working out everyday.
Turkish coffee is lovely!!
I don’t drink coffee as much as I used to
I AM a massive mountain dew addict though, and it’s summer so you can get Baja Blast, I drink like 2 liters a day at least. End me, please.
And again, “American Coffee”
Sometimes when the pods run out, and when we dont have enough money (which happens a lot) Ill get ahitty coffee from McDonalds. Here’s the kicker the have a giant board showing the LatAm countries where they “create jobs” with their cheap coffee, hmmm.
I say this with love. Get that Mt. Dew shit under control if you can. Got a coworker who lives and dies on that shit for hydration. Mother fucker’s kidneys failed and he spent a week and a half in the hospital.
Otherwise, please chase that soda with plenty of water at least. Dont let that shit kill ya, my guy.
I know, I know…
Homie. I live in Appalachia. Mt. Dew is like godly nectar. There is nothing much more satisfying than an ice cold Mt. Dew around here. Except for southern sweet iced tea or Ski.
I’m happy it’s summer so I can get Baja Blast. I mainly drink Diet, sue me.
What’s ski?
I like to imagine you guys have this secret spring that y’all harvest Mountain Dew from. Your second biggest export is mountain dew next to coal.
Wait if y’all are already impoverished while running on coal, how y’all gonna survive when we start going sustainable. Socialism or bust? Blaire Mountain round two, for keeps?
Let’s go! Lol
Ski is a regional/local version of Mt. Dew. It’s more citrus than sweet. Kinda sour more than sweet.
That’s cool, I’ll need to try it sometime.

I have an oral fixation and I know how addictive Coffee is so that a big no from me. I choose Tea, it’s really good and it pairs well with breakfast without killing my stomach later
a pot of pure black coffee a day helps me concentrate and focus and makes me sleepy, and I’ve never been sleepy because of it.
Coffee is really good but I’ll get anxious if I dared to drink anything that actually tastes like proper coffee. So I’m mostly drinking tea for now.
I prepare a kettle with coffee in the morning, it serves about one mug and a half, two mugs depending on the size of it, during the afternoon I drink mate (sometimes I switch to tea instead) which also contains high amounts of caffeine, and I stop drinking any kind of caffeine beverage before 1800 so that I can sleep properly. I think that if you manage to lower your dosage you should be fine. I really need something to wake me up in the morning, so yeah.
That’s about where I’m at. I coldbrew a French press over night, then switch to tea in the afternoon. It is nice to have the pick-me-up in the morning! 😁
Caffeine used to give me really big anxiety attacks before I was very far in my transition. It didn’t seem to be as bad with green tea and that’s what I drink now from time to time.
Never drank coffee, but I do drink black tea from time to time. Weirdly the tea actually makes me kinda sleepy (only on certain occasions do I drink it, therefore I don’t think it’s caffeine tolerance acquired by consumption), so I only drink it for the joy rather than any practical purpose. I drink other kinds of tea more often.

I like both coffee and tea. My day has to start with coffee. In the past I had a moka pot espresso maker, and an aeropress. Too much coffee definitely starts to have a negative affect on me.
Tea I drink less of, although I do like green, some types of black tea, and herbals teas, especially chamomile.
Without a mug of black drip coffee or moka pot (from properly roasted beans, not black-oil roast) to start my day, my outlook is pretty dark. I used to think it was the caffeine but tea doesn’t cut it at all. There’s something in that coffee that makes me hate this world a bit less by the time the cup is empty. No idea what I will do on that front when the real war comes, probably kamikaze for a good cause.
Yeah same tea is nice but to start the day must be coffee
When I was a kid I put salt in Nescafé Swore to never drink coffee again
Lol that can’t have been pleasant!
I have never liked plain coffee. I drink instant stuff with cream because it’s easy to make and tastes good. I don’t really know if it affects my metabolism (I’ve heard that it can be good in moderate amounts) or my mood
More importantly, even though the producers claim that it’s “responsibly sourced”, I still feel uncomfortable about the beans’ origins considering the history of coffee production
2 spoons of instant coffee, 2 spoons of sugar, half cup of hot boiling water in big metal bowl. Mix with electric or manual mixer. Creates dalgona. Something that you can spoon on top of iced milk.
Nice, I’ll have to try that
