I wish there was a Starbucks nearer as their lattes are my favourites, but no coffee is worth the one one-hour drive solely for me to get one.

I'm holding off on mine until I start struggling (7pm here). So far I've only had a bottled Starbucks caramel frapp. I have another one in the fridge, and some flavoured cappuccino sachets for later (cinnamon bun and toffee nut, I think).

Also love hot teas
I also enjoy coke

Wow! I'm so glad I live closer to one! but I can totally get not wanting to drive that far to get a cup of coffee

Black tea is my default. Today I will be drinking both black and green tea. Iced black tea right now for pickup up after errand. Later I will drink Tazo Zen tea: green tea with spearmint and lemongrass while reading

Normally I drink English Breakfast tea, as my stomach gets upset from too much coffee, but for readathons it's coffee

Avid, I used to drink Twinning's English Breakfast tea. Such good taste. Such effective caffiene. Maybe I treat myself to that next Deweys.

I really like that one!

I drink a bottle or two of Coke most days, sometimes coffee, and when I get tired of coffee I drink Barry's Gold black tea. I also have some coffee candies, which I guess are candy coated freeze dried compressed coffee, and have as much caffeine per container as 6 espresso drinks. I also have ADD, and find that a bit of caffeine in the evenings makes it oddly easier to sleep. :) I can go without caffeine pretty easily, actually, but life is short, and many of my favorite drinks are caffeinated. Might as well enjoy them.

I had a cup of Twinings Earl Grey this morning and it's very good. I like their English Breakfast tea, but I usually get Yorkshire Tea (the version called Yorkshire Red, which is usually cheaper than Yorkshire Gold). I've done previous readathons with looseleaf Assam tea, but I'm all out of looseleaf tea right now.

Same goes for green tea. Hardly ever drink it, except on some mornings when I can't wake up. But only one cup, otherwise I get all jittery.

I'll probably have some non-caffeinated tea later.

Do you drink caffeinated drinks? If so what's your favorite? Do you have a favorite readathon drink, caffeinated or not?
I live on caffeine, spoonie life ;). I always get bottled coffee for the readathon. My favorite is the Starbucks skinny ones. This time I got Skinny Caramel Machiatto. I also got hint energy water, and dr pepper zero sugar.
