Water, water, water, I do spinning class at 6:00 a.m. And then after that I have a protein drink with extra water, not milk. No caffeine. It's bad for me. I'm a fire sign and this just intensifies the affect.
Milk on cereal is about it until lunch, unless I remember to drink water in the morning. The junk food follows later in the day.
I've never been in the coffee habit, and don't want to start. There seems to be a neverending life-quest for coffee, wherever we go, when I'm with coffee drinkers, and I don't want to be a slave to that.
I'd like to say a gin and tonic, or maybe a long island iced tea...but god knows i'd die from dehydration so early. Plus nobody wants me drunk in the morning...Hell i shoudln't even be aloud of out my room in the morning.

For me, Its all a careful balance of Awake vs. Twitching...
SO it starts out with really sweet creamy full strength coffee and slowly goes 50/50 decaf, then eventually I'm down to water for the rest of the day.
At the moment its Iced Tea. Sometimes with sugar but usually without. If I don't have HUGE glass of Iced Tea or at least water I feel icky. I like juice but ever since I started drinking Diet Coke, most beverages are too sweet for me. If I have juice its gotta be without added sugar and even fresh OJ is better with some Grapefruit in it. I don't drink Diet Coke very often but it has completely turned me off to anything over-sweet.
In a blender, add:
1 half of leftover NY steak (chopped)
3 habanero peppers
1 Yoplait yogurt
1 vanilla pudding snack pack
1 12 ounce bottle of beer
1 12 ounce can of Coke
1 cup of finely ground coffee
1 spoonful of fresh ground black pepper
4 eggs
Sprinkle of salt
Handful of cooked shrimp
Half tube of wasabi
4 tablespoons of soy sauce
(if you prefer more of a Beef Jerky flavor, substitute the soy sauce for Liquid Smoke)
2 tablespoons of Worchester Sauce
2 cups of Gatorade
Blend thoroughly.
Add a few dashes of Tabasco on top of blended substance, and enjoy directly from the blender.

Damn dude, thats a lot of shit. Are you sure you don't have to mix it up in the tub? hahahaha
when I really need a jolt to wake me up: coffee with half the sugar in the whole damn house, black, or an ice-cold Starbuck's DoubleShot.
Otherwise, water. All day, every day. I had a kidney stone once...just once...and that was enough for me. Lots of water.

Let see.. If it is summer then it is Pepsi as I grind into my morning work. If I am dragging I back it up with espresso.
Now with fall coming on and the dreary season coming back, I will most likely return to my habit of having a shot of hot sake every morning just to get things moving.

Ya mean a flammer?
I slam a Red Bull, then go grab a cup of coffee & one of them new Starbucks Double Shots , a couple bumps of Tina, a shot of Jack, a hot off the pipe & I'm good to go. And that's all be for 8am!

I used to have a Dunkin Donuts shop and I had a theory from my observations that people ween themselves off of cream and sugar more and more as they age, but lately with these crazy Starbucks drinks, everyone is throwing stuff like vanilla and shots of syrup and what not into their coffee. Changing tastes for different times I guess?
