Caffeinate

On the basis that no matter what anyone says about coffee, one is still likely to drink it - here are some figures on what's likely to fuel/fry your brain most. For me, more than one cup of filter coffee in any 2 hour period and I start to oscillate, bodily, and talk fasterandfastandfaster. So I'll stick with where I am. But notice the pointlessness of energy-boosting-fizzy drinks compared to an espresso!

In milligrams of caffeine per ounce of beverage:
  • Coffee (brewed): 13.44
  • Coffee (drip): 18.12
  • Coffee (espresso): 51.33
  • Coffee (instant): 7.12
  • Coca-Cola Classic: 2.88
  • Diet Coke: 3.75
  • Dr Pepper: 3.42
  • Mountain Dew: 4.58
  • Red Bull: 9.64
