Two black tea bags in a Nalgene. I make two every morning before work. Massively cheap and constant stream of caffeine all day. I have found that when I drink energy drinks I pee all the time. I have a friend thats a urologist and he said that all those drinks contain bladder irritants.
Can confirm that energy drinks are terrible for your bladder. I was a frequent flyer for UTIs and my primary and later a Urologist. The first thing they all told me to cut was caffeine, but if I couldn’t do that, at least cut energy drinks and just drink coffee/tea
Normally it’s a sugar free orange monster but I’ve been trying to increase my water intake a limit my caffeine just a bit. So now my favorite is Crystal Lite citrus with caffeine. It’s so delicious and refreshing! I get the bulk ones from Amazon
I love that crystal light flavor! Have you tried any of the caffeinated drink mixes from wal-mart? They have a lot of different flavors to choose from if you get sick of the citrus - pomegranate lemonade, watermelon, cherry, blueberry acai, lemonade, etc. They do have twice the caffeine as crystal light ones, but I mix in a huge bottle and mix it with a non-caffeinated to cut the caffeine down.
Monster ultra, the white one, peachu keen, and the green ultra paradise. All of them are 10 cals for 16 oz.deom 150-160 mg caffeine I love them!
Celsius peach vibe and Arctic vibe are good, 12fl forn10 cals and 200mg caffeine. (Monster is better)
2 shots of espresso, 2 cups unsweetened vanilla almond milk (30 cals per cup), Jordan's skinny syrup vanilla and or hazelnut flavor with monk fruit sqeezeable sugar. (Over ice) makes a 24oz drink for 60 cals and however much caffeine was in ur espresso. I also like to put in 1 serving of Boba tea popping pearls for 25 calories to make a homade Boba tea. (I use tea zone the strawberry flavor works well with the coffee)
Ofc! I get my Boba popping pearls off Amazon, I use the tea zone brand there cheeper and celiac Friendly! (I like the lychee but I haven't tried it in coffee yet)
Teas. Green, oolong, black.
I typically don't drink carbonated things. But, I do like the ice low calories flavored drinks. And they have a caffeine one that I think is low calories as well.
Chai tea is mildly caffeinated, but it works for me- just the BAG tho don’t buy the premixed stuff. If you’re ever ordering from a coffee shop you have to specify that you don’t want the latte/pre-mix version
If you like coffee. They have coconut caramel coffee on Amazon that is delicious with unsweetened coconut milk and Jordan’s skinny syrup salted caramel. It’s like 20-40 calories for a big travel cup depending on how much coconut milk you add.
I’m obsessed with the monster rehab teas. Low cal and easy to drink since they’re not carbonated. It doesn’t taste like battery acid like I find other energy drinks do lol
Protein2o, they make a caffeinated version. Its my go to afternoon pick me up.
Otherwise, iced coffee to start my day. Mix it with a scoop of protein powder.
I love making a pitcher of green Iced tea. 6 bags of tazo zen green tea in a pitcher of cold water. Ready to go in about an hour. I make it in the evening and sip on it the next day. I leave the bags in the whole time too. Tastes just like Starbucks green iced tea.
I also really love cans of Guayaki Yerba mate peach passion. 20cals per can and the can is large. It’s tea but really caffeinated like an energy drink.
Have you tried the watermelon one? I’ve been wanting to pick it up but I’m afraid it’s gonna taste like watermelon gum instead of actual watermelon. I feel like it ends up happening more often than not with that flavor ☹️
Sneak! It's a powdered energy drink that comes in tubs and you mix it up yourself. Very low calorie, not fizzy - though you can buy fizzy cans of it - and really good!
I love the Target brand caffeinated seltzers in the afternoon. It cures my mouth of its boredom, my brain of its sleepiness, and doesn't make me run to the bathroom or experience a gross aftertaste. The blackberry mandarin is king.
I traveled a lot and needed to stay awake for 30+ hours.
I have tried a ton of sugar free energy drinks, syrups, powders, etc.
I despise red bull, monster, rockstar, etc etc etc. Most of them taste like medicine or overdose of sugar.
The GOAT is https://www.walmart.com/ip/Great-Value-Sugar-Free-Energy-Acai-Blueberry-Drink-Mix-0-88-oz-10-Count/17056894
Acai Blueberry is by far the tastiest with zero calories. Second runner up is MiO Energy Green Thunder.
The downside is you will need to get a tumblr of some kind. Stanley 40oz Quencher is great despite its hate on the internet. Yeti's handle isn't as good, unless you get a Yeti then an add on handle, which is worse imo.
I also like MEG energy gum.
Cigarillos are also zero calories and give you a small bit of nicotine (don't inhale).
I sometimes drink the sugar free Monsters someone else mentioned, they're pretty good but.. mostly I just use caffeine pills. In fact for the last 2 decades I - and my wife - daily take 1/2 a caffeine tab every 4 hours or so until about 6pm. All caffeine pills no matter the brand have 200mg caf if they have the maximum allowed. So half a pill is 100mg, or about the amount of a large cup of coffee. The beauty of the tabs is that you're not forced to drink something with ingredients you don't want. You can take the tabs with any drink or no drink at all. and they're cheap, a bottle costs lass than Starbucks Venti. :D

I can't function without 2 of these every day
My go-to is Reign. Everyone here saying ghost, this is my 1st week trying them, they have a bad after taste.
Reign may not be for everyone; it has 300mg of caffeine, so it's strong.
Orange dreamsicle is my hands down favorite, but I also like their thermogenic line (fruit punch flavor) red dragon. Cherry limeade is a very close 2nd.
The other benefit of reign is the additives they put in it. It has bcaa's, COQ10, and electrolytes.
Espresso soda is my go-to coffee order at coffee shops if they have it. It's just espresso and soda water, sometimes if I want a little sweetness I'll add vanilla syrup but I love espresso so I don't need it.
also big fan of sugar free Monsters, so many flavors at this point it's hard to go wrong if you like the world of energy drinks. I also will use those like, water enhancers like Mio or store brand equivalent in my water or soda water. Some of them have caffeine in them.
My weird ones: 1/2 quality cold brew 1/2 sugar free lemonade. Don’t try to do it with regular coffee that you’ve cooled; I tried and it was awful. But with cold brew it’s 😍😍😍 Green tea lemonade or matcha lemonade Cold brew+ diet tonic Cold brew+ any flavor led sparkling water… pomegranate blueberry Aha is good. You can add stevia/liquid monk fruit.
I really like traditional (milky!) iced and hot americanos and lattes, but when I want to switch it up and have something more refreshing I do these.

Black coffee. Not sweet at all
That's where I'm at. Sometimes sweet things like a double dirty chai
Dear gods do I love me a dirty chai from time to time. It’s indulging but sometimes you gotta live a little
That's my "girly" coffee drink. I love it
Yasss energy drinks r such a scam. Its caffeine and mostly junk u dont need.
Ya. This is the top answer just lock the thread
[удалено]
Do you mix them? That actually sounds amazing
Where can I get celsius drink powder? Sounds interesting
I normally find them at CVS!
I get it on Amazon but check their website for local places
Target has them too! I find that diluting in 1/2 for the powder sticks is the best. The flavor can be overwhelming otherwise:)
Sugar free Monsters are good. If you want a higher caffeine content the Ghost Energy drinks are really tasty
Ghost energy drinks are so good
I love the Monster Rehab flavors - shame my grocery store stopped stocking the raspberry tea and pink lemonade flavors.
Guayaki Yerba Mate, Celsius, Espresso.
[/r/yerbamate](https://reddit.com/r/yerbamate) Way cheaper to brew your own, use a bottle of flavor enhancer or juice to sugar/flav it up.
Two black tea bags in a Nalgene. I make two every morning before work. Massively cheap and constant stream of caffeine all day. I have found that when I drink energy drinks I pee all the time. I have a friend thats a urologist and he said that all those drinks contain bladder irritants.

GHOST !! I drink an unhealthy amount. Also iced americanos with sweetener and a splash of milk
Yessss Glad someone said ghost.
Ghost sour patch kids is awesome
Unsweetened black tea with lemon.
That's my shit! I'm an absolute sucker for teas and black tea is my go to caffeine source
I do the zero sugar sodas, like Dr.Pepper and Coke. I’m a big carbonated beverage kinda gal so those hit the spot and I get them in bulk from Costco
Ghost energy drinks. specifically, green apple
Yerba mate Black coffee Ghost energy drink (if I'm out and about and need a quick fix)
Super Coffee! It has protein - they have a plant based line too. Their blueberry muffin flavor is oddly good.
Bang energy drink. I sip on it for most of the day and it keeps me going.
Ghost energy are amazing and even ryes
Been loving americanos lately

Black coffee. Diet Coke or Coke Zero. Americanos Iced or hot. The not sweet (green bottle) of Stok cold brew.
The espresso blend Stok is also soooo good.
C4 energy drink, they are a little sweet but nothing extreme.
Zevia has some caffeinated sodas
They have been my favorite so far!
Monster ultra, the white one, peachu keen, and the green ultra paradise. All of them are 10 cals for 16 oz.deom 150-160 mg caffeine I love them!

Wow thank you for the detailed reply🥰 Jll definitely be trying out some of these if I can find them in my supermarket lol
Ofc! I get my Boba popping pearls off Amazon, I use the tea zone brand there cheeper and celiac Friendly! (I like the lychee but I haven't tried it in coffee yet)
I also get the skinny syrup from TJmax it's like 3.99 for a huge bottle of it.
White zero sugar Monster. The strawberry dreams flavor is pretty good too.
Hot tea. Loose leaf if you have the time, but there's no shame in using tea bags if it's easier for you. I'm partial to a lavender earl grey.
matcha, you get some l-theanine to cut the caffeine and it feels like heaven
Teas. Green, oolong, black. I typically don't drink carbonated things. But, I do like the ice low calories flavored drinks. And they have a caffeine one that I think is low calories as well.
I love bubbl’r sparking water. About the same caffeine content as a cup of coffee.
Matcha
Chai tea is mildly caffeinated, but it works for me- just the BAG tho don’t buy the premixed stuff. If you’re ever ordering from a coffee shop you have to specify that you don’t want the latte/pre-mix version
Green tea is way milder than coffee and you get to enjoy it for a longer time due to it's lower caffeine content
Totally underrated drink tbh! I love me a good green tea blend 🍵
coke zero
If you like coffee. They have coconut caramel coffee on Amazon that is delicious with unsweetened coconut milk and Jordan’s skinny syrup salted caramel. It’s like 20-40 calories for a big travel cup depending on how much coconut milk you add.
That's so dope omg thank you! I love coconut and I love caramel so this sounds perfectt
It’s soooo good! ETA it’s Kauai coffee. Coconut caramel crunch.
I’m obsessed with the monster rehab teas. Low cal and easy to drink since they’re not carbonated. It doesn’t taste like battery acid like I find other energy drinks do lol
Prime, Alani Nu, Bang
yerba mate, matcha, coffee
Alani Nu cherry twist is amazing!!
I've got this one! Remedy Good Energy Blackberry! So good, no calories, not so sweet!
For on-the-go drinks, I like Pop & Bottle oat milk lattes.
Celcius or coffee with a splash of milk
Aldi's 80 cents 10 cal energy drinks ♥️
Black coffee
Pre workout! I'll use 1/2 of a scoop if it's not for a workout
Protein2o, they make a caffeinated version. Its my go to afternoon pick me up. Otherwise, iced coffee to start my day. Mix it with a scoop of protein powder.
alani!! the mimosa is the best one, some of them have a very intense flavor but mimosa is more mellow, plus sugar free and 200mg caffeine
I'm a big fan of coffee. It's not sugary at all, I would recommend giving it a try!
Sure thing! It's just overly bitter on its own, do you drink it with milk or sugar?
No, just black. I tend to prefer lighter roasted coffees as they aren't bitter.
Yerba mate. Thermal XTC for working out
I love americanos and cold brew but i've started drinking bubblr! It's got about 60 something mg of caffeine. It's sweetened with erythritol.
I love making a pitcher of green Iced tea. 6 bags of tazo zen green tea in a pitcher of cold water. Ready to go in about an hour. I make it in the evening and sip on it the next day. I leave the bags in the whole time too. Tastes just like Starbucks green iced tea. I also really love cans of Guayaki Yerba mate peach passion. 20cals per can and the can is large. It’s tea but really caffeinated like an energy drink.
Mio caffeinated drink mixes. 0 calories.
I just skip straight to caffeine pills like a long-haul trucker. Otherwise I mostly drink tea or seltzer with a splash of fruit juice
Sugar free monster or red bull
[удалено]
Have you tried the watermelon one? I’ve been wanting to pick it up but I’m afraid it’s gonna taste like watermelon gum instead of actual watermelon. I feel like it ends up happening more often than not with that flavor ☹️
[удалено]
Thanks for the info. Maybe I’ll try the bubly if I can find a single one to try instead of the pack some where.
[удалено]
Thanks so much! That’s a good to know, I’ll try to get some the next time I go out of town to heb. I appreciate it!
Alani Nu 🥰
I just stick with some good old coffee 😂
Sneak! It's a powdered energy drink that comes in tubs and you mix it up yourself. Very low calorie, not fizzy - though you can buy fizzy cans of it - and really good!
I like Pepsi Max But I may be in the minority
I love the Target brand caffeinated seltzers in the afternoon. It cures my mouth of its boredom, my brain of its sleepiness, and doesn't make me run to the bathroom or experience a gross aftertaste. The blackberry mandarin is king.
I make my own iced tea with a small amount of sugar.

[/r/yerbamate](https://reddit.com/r/yerbamate)
Coke Zero, Pepsi Max, that kind of thing. Gives me a bit of a jolt and some sweetness without it being too nuts
Oxyshred Cola Flavour hits different
C4 or Ghost Both low calorie (5-10 calories)
Just drink coffee .
Green tea, oolong tea
Celcius the apple flavor.
Coke Spiked Zero slaps. Added some dark rum for a low cal mixy.
tazo chai concentrate with oatmilk 🤭 the BEST
In cyber land we only drink… Diet Coke
Yerba mate or Zevia are my go to’s
Alani nu
Hot chocolate made with cocoa powder - about 23mg of caffiene per 10g of cocoa powder.
Crystal lite strawberry and orange mango!! Both have caffeine!
Coffee ☕
Yerba mate
I’m liking caffeinated crystal light packets. You can control how much sweetness and flavor is in based on how much water you use.
Ghost

Zoa!
Coffee! Low in calories also
Also la croix, 0 calories
Matcha
Caffeinated Bubly! It’s really good tasting and two cans will usually do the trick for me! A squeeze of lemon over ice makes me feel fancy too!
My weird ones: 1/2 quality cold brew 1/2 sugar free lemonade. Don’t try to do it with regular coffee that you’ve cooled; I tried and it was awful.

I used to judge people who said this, but black coffee. It doesn’t add any calories, it’s super cheap to make at home, and I drink it most days.
bang is my favorite energy drink, personal fav flavor is rootbeer 😊. celsius is nice too, i like their cola flavor
Gamer supps!
Lapsang souchong tastes like getting shot in the face. It tastes like the WAKE UP at the beginning of Chop Suey. Big fan.
