Alternatives To Coffee

Lots of people dislike coffee, and there are a variety of reasons for this; for some, they do not like the way coffee affects them; for others, coffee has more caffeine than they want; and of course, some people simply do not like the taste. If you are not wanting to drink coffee yourself, but are still wanting a bit of an energy boost each day, it helps to be aware of some of the alternatives to coffee.

If the reason you do not like coffee is because of the high caffeine content, one option that is great to try is tea. Tea is a nice, hot drink that is nice to enjoy on those afternoons when your friends are all drinking coffee, and with it you will have a much lower caffeine content. In fact, you even have the choice between green tea and black tea when it comes to tea - the former of which has less caffeine, and the latter of which has more.

Energy drinks just might be the right choice for you if the reason you want to avoid coffee is because of the taste, rather than because of the caffeine content. The most effective energy drink for most people is Red Bull, and you can even have sugar-free Red Bull if you do not want the sugar. In fact - because of the "sugar crash" that can plague you with regular Red Bull - many people find that sugar-free Red Bull works even better for them.

And of course, in order to avoid both the high caffeine content and the sugar crash, you can try Five Hour Energy. Unlike Red Bull or even coffee, Five Hour Energy will not give you a sudden burst if you are on the verge of sleep. But with Five Hour Energy, you will feel more alert and awake for hours if you take it on a regular, sluggish afternoon - and you will feel this way without feeling like you have taken anything at all!

For every different reason a person might have for not drinking coffee, there are available alternatives. If you have been wanting to stay away from coffee yourself, try any of these three options; chances are, you will find one that is right for you!
