Coffee? Energy drinks? Tea? or All Natural?

geeez, don't even get me started on coffee. haha. i love the stuff. i have to have some in my system in order to function in the mornings. Hell, it's just plain delicious. I used to be an avid tea drinker, but i just forget it's there. But please, coffee any day! Energy drinks can be tasty, but i don't really drink them for the caffeine rush, mostly for the taste. Monster and Red Bull are my faves. :starwars:

I like tea, LOTS of tea is consumed by me.
I also like a can of Diet Coke (just because I prefer the taste of that to regular Coke), every few days maybe. Sometimes though my mum gets me bottles to go through in a week or so and it's gone within three days. :P I'd say I am quite reliant on caffeine at times, but as I've just quit smoking it's kinda my replacement, or one of them. LOTS AND LOTS OF CONSTANT TEA MAKING :x3:

Anyway, I enjoy drinking tea, but I've cut down on it recently due to having a few health problems (same for coffee). So I've switched to drinking Milk although I don't drink much just a glass in breakfast and another one in dinner

I never liked Energy drinks, I ended up buying one once but I spit it out as soon as I tasted it. It was horrible and I don't think I need it to do any of my daily activities nor would I need it for excessive work because I can stay up for about 40 hours without getting tired.

Coffee - Is something I won't drink because I'm more of a stressed person, anything can get me stressed even if I'm ready for it, coffee just gets me a little bit much hyperactive, causing me to move my leg constantly (to the point of being tired), feeling unrelieved while sitting down, so it causes me a lot of problems.
 
I love coffee. LOVE it. I need at least one in the morning, afternoon and evening to keep me happy. Usually when im at home on 'deadline' (deadlines for completed work coming up and going all out on it, possibly all night and day) I have a kettle set up in the room with a nice supply to keep me toped up every hour or two. I'll drink Tea if there is nothing else but Coffee is definitely where its at. I take mine the 'stoner standard' (ie, little milk and two sugers) most of the time but I sometimes put an extra teaspoon if its weaker coffee and I have no problems drinking it without milk.

I've come to dislike Energy Drinks though. Most of them taste like shit and all it really does is keep me awake at the wrong times. I'll have it with Jagerbombs on nights out but you wouldn't catch me drinking it straight.
 
I prefer tea for a number of reasons, the main one being that it helps get rid of whatever's ailing me. Another reason would be that putting a bit of honey and a bit of lemon juice make it taste better for me. Coffee just leaves me feeling devoid of energy after drinking it, it doesn't wake me up at all. I love coffee and the many flavors it has, but it just isn't worth drinking it for me since i need whatever energy i have to get things done throughout the day/week.
 
I use a lot of berocca tablets. I start my day off with berocca performance to give me my daily does of vitamins and get me going. Then throughout the day I have one or two berocca boost tablets. They are not unhealthy because they only contain vitamins and minerals, no caffeine or anything like that. They are a good way to reduce tiredness and keep going.
 
I love all of those things. I love a good French vanilla coffee. I only have it once in a while though. I also drink energy drinks such as Gatorade, Powerade, etc. I also have become a huge fan Green Tea over the last year. Cold Green Tea in the summer is hella dope. I absolutely love it.
 
I dont ever drink coffee or tea. I dont really like coffee. I adore the smell of it but the taste is just revolting to me. I like tea but i never ever drink it. I could count on 2 hands how many cups of tea ive had in my life, thats no joke either. Unlike coffee i do enjoy the taste of tea but i would rather have water or diluting juice.
The only energy drink is like is Monster. Lucozade is brilliant aswell but thats different to red bull energy drinks. It tasted more like a nice fizzy juice depending on the flavour. I dont like anything that tastes like Red Bull, i dont even like it with vodka, which most people love. When i was a bit younger, maybe 18 or something like that i stayed at a friends house after a night out. Woke up in the morning with a really dry mouth like you do and the only thing i had was a bottle of spar brand red bull, which tastes exactly like red bull. I downed it then got on the bus home. About 30 minutes into my journey i was ready to get off. I only had 2 more stops and it was my stop to get off at. I felt a bit sick but figured itd be okay and if i was gunna be sick id just do it outside or in my house cuz my house is only 5 minutes from the stop. Well you can guess what happened next. The feeling of being sick suddenly just became the feeling of. Oh shit im gunna be sick now, and of course i was. I was sick all over the back of the bus. Luckily it was a Sunday morning so there were only a few people on the bus. I tried to make it as quiet as i could so the driver wouldnt hear me :lew: Which didnt work at all and i ended up choking a little which made me even more sick. I then legged it off the bus when the driver came to my stop. He said something to me as i darted past but I wasn't listening and just sprinted off the bus and made my escape.
Since then I havent been able to look at red bull since. I never loved it but id drink it. After that little adventure though i stayed off the stuff for good. Even the smell takes me back to that day :ness:
 
I like all three but I don't drink any of them regularly. For coffee I generally go for a cappuccino. I don't make coffee at home, but if I'm at someone else's place I have it with milk and two sugars. I like the taste of coffee but I often feel like shit after I drink it, I hate it when the taste of coffee lingers in my mouth. On average I only have one coffee every couple of months.

I like the taste of some energy drinks like Redbull. But I very rarely drink them because they are: exceptionally bad for me, expensive considering they generally come in small cans and they sometimes give me headaches. I had a redbull a few weeks ago, but before then, I don't think I had had an energy drink in years. When I was younger, I used to get lots of free ones because they would have lots of promotions.

Tea is probably my favourite of the bunch. I don't drink it that often though. Generally every couple of weeks. I like to have it when I'm sick or I have a sore throat. I always have it with two sugars (unless it is already sweet) and no milk.

For a general pick-me-up, my preferred choice is orange juice.

I love Lucozade! I only ever have it when I'm sick though. It's too expensive just to buy all the time like all energy drinks are.
It is totally different to shitty red bull, V's etc. I tried to drink a V once about 6 years ago and I got like a quarter of the way through throughout an entire day at work. It was so disgusting!

My friend had a similar incident but with Vodka and orange juice. She'll still drink Vodka but has never had orange juice since said incident about 4 years ago. >.<
Even the smell makes her feel sick and envision the moment. XD
