    Can I PLEASE just get a bubbly drink with caffeine that is unsweetned. The canned coffee is all too expensive and most of that has sugar in it to.

    Just give me a sparkling unsweetened tea with extra caffeine. Is that to much to ask?

      Not to be that guy, but as someone who quit caffeine entirely, honestly it’s kinda great not needing caffeine. I traded my daily coffee for water and now I just drink shitloads of water and it’s honesty glorious. Waking up and just…going is amazing

      Wanted to throw it out there because it seems not many people try to kick caffeine

      I actually think Lipton peach ice tea in 2lt packets have no sugar added, giving them a really mild flavor compared to their fruit juice like flavor in canned and 1lt forms

      Might be a bit hard for you to buy depending on where you live but YABU energy drink is just straight up carbonated Polish apple juice with caffeine. I drank a few different flavours they have and they are nice.

      Dunno where you are, but ChariTea has a new sugar free mate. Mate based drinks in general tend to be at least less sweet than that energy drink stuff.

      I personally usually just make coffee at home and take it with me, but I recognise that doesn’t work for everyone.

            Absolutely. You can buy caffeine by the kilo and incidentally it sort of looks like really stepped on coke.

            But I’m not kidding about the accurate scale tho. I LOVE caffeine, but the last time I tried to eyeball 200mg I ended up feeling like I was going to die.

    Ma’am, that is a 33 cl mixture of gas station sludge. It has no syrup, leaves, or apple juice. It is an amalgamation of the industrial output of several laboratories, distilled, mixed, powdered, re-liquefied, and ultimately inexorably joined in an unholy water chalice. God had no hand in the creation of this abhorrence. The fact that this terrible liquid exists proves that God is either impotent to alter His universe or ignorant to the horrors taking place in his kingdom. This prism of water is more than gas station sludge. It is a physical declaration of mankind’s contempt for the natural order. It is hubris manifest.
    We also have a higher glucose variety if you would prefer that.

    If you’re pounding back energy drinks on the regular, the type of sugar they use should be the least of your concerns.

        This is a common joke but I genuinely tried to find a link between energy drinks and kidney stones on google scholar and could just go as far as soda and acidic drinks being maybe a little worse.

          Honestly, I’d be more worried about the metabolic accelerant effects, as well as the dehydration and the gastrointestinal irritation (the laxative effect isn’t because it’s a good solvent:)) ).

    We’re all fucked. Whether it’s sugary or sugar-free, if your brain likes it it’s probably bad for you.

      I mostly drink water and generally love me a good tall glass of ice cold water. Does that mean my water habit will kill me at some point?

      Sounds like you haven’t tried enough shit. If you don’t like something healthy just eat it again. If you eat something enough times you will eventually like it. Not liking healthy food is for the weak minded.

      not true. There’s plenty my brain likes that’s good for you. For example: cardio, sushi, coffee, sex, anchovies, tabbouleh, whitefish salad, bagels, and blankets. As always, all good things in moderation.
