Coffee? Tea? Drug Me Please? Support Apolyton, buy Civilization III: Complete

It's morning. What do you do to kick start yourself?

Currently, on the days I don't want to wake up, I just gradually go from zombie to fine. But is there a better way?

I'm not really interested in "acquiring a taste" for coffee, it smells bad. The hardest drug I'm on now is chocolate. A morning cup of tea just doesn't sound right. I read some people run/excercise in the morning, but after a good run/exercise I just want to rest it doesn't energize me in the short term. Cold/Hot showers do little for me as well.

And answers like a good night's sleep don't count.

I don't drink caffeine. I usually drink water when I wake up. I can't say morning, because often I don't wake up until the afternoon.

red bull tastes like crap.

just drink cappuccinos. They have so much crap in them, they taste good. It's extra calories though, so you'll have to burn them off.

Right now I am only using green tea as I am not working until I get my medical clearance back. I normally use coffee to wake up, but tea is healthier for you, especially if you do not sweeten it, or add honey - which is massively superior to sugar. I want to wean myslef over to black tea (highest caffeine in tea) once I permanently get out of ATC. It both smells and tastes better than coffee.

If you aren't hooked on caffene, don't start. However, a nice decafe latte is a great way to start the day.

Where's the 'beer' option?




Seriously though, I go for the Mugi-cha (tea). Frigging thing is so potent is might as well be considered coffee.
