Short answer: Tea!
Long answer: I am a tea person, never been much of a coffee person (except for the odd mocha latte here and there). Green tea is my absolute favorite: iced, hot, spiced, chai, plain, pretty much doesn't matter (aside from green tea with some kind of weird jujuba-herbs mixed in, at the Teavana in the Burlington Mall today. Oy! It was supposed to be some kind of healthy mood-enhancer herb, but it made my eyes bug out and water). Black tea is a good mid-afternoon perk-me-up, white tea can be a little bland, but it's still good. For some reason, I seem to write better with a cup of tea within arm's reach of the keyboard, and I've found I can withstand noise levels (and whining levels) at work better if I've started the day off with a cup of green tea. I'm even considering teaching myself the Japanese tea ceremony, partly to enrich my skills and partly as a relaxation technique.
