WHICH ONE DO YOU CHOOSE?! Sorry about typing in all caps, I'm a bit hyper right now, but I know that no excuse. Still, I'm transferring to another college soon, so I feel some long nights ahead of me... and maybe mornings and days too. So what do you guys recommend? Right now I drink tea, mostly because it's just easy to make and my parents keep buying tea for some reason, even though I'm the only one who ever drinks any. I could make coffee, but my parents are old school so I'd have to watch what amounts to coffee boiling tot he top of a tin can to know when it's done. Energy Drinks? Too expensive. I have a monster in the refrigerator in case of emergency need, but it's been in there for 2 years now. Thoughts?

None, actually. Also, that's probably pretty unusual considering I work at Starbucks. I'll drink iced tea every now and then, but pretty much only at work. I don't drink coffee at all and have never drank an energy drink and have no intentions of doing so. If I need a boost of energy, I take a nap.

I had a cousin that worked at Starbucks during college. He said the fumes were enough to keep him awake. In fact he was staying awake even when he didn't have to, so eventually he quit because of it.

Tea isn't really for staying up, it's more for relaxing. That's how I drink it at least.

I don't really like coffee or energy drinks, but tea is pretty great.

I'm a total tea dude. 
Occasionally i drink a cup of coffee like i had... this morning! 
Me - a tea-slurping nerd - drinking coffee is quite a rarity! 
I needed the caffeine to dispel my drowsiness. 
Energy drinks i dislike. 
Way too sweet and laden with caffeine! 
It'd completely f*** me up! 
I would'nt worry too much about the expiry date.     
That stuff is drinkable for ages to come.
