For Caffeine Freaks

Here's a nice list of what caffeine sources give you the most bang for your buck.

I stick mostly to coffee and diet pop, but I was really surprised to see that Sunkist Orange Soda is a cheap source...I thought it was caffeine-free! Not going to let the kids have that anymore...

You thought the pop that has caffeine listed an an ingredient was caffeine free? Fanta's caffeine free.

Never checked the label...for some reason I always thought orange soda was caffeine-free.

Big believer in 5 Hour Energy. Only problem is they're expensive as hell...

Orange soda is loaded with caffeine.....until you add the vodka.

Saw Austen Arnaud loading up on 5 hour energy at Casey's a couple weeks ago, never actually tried the stuff but if I needed to stay up that's what I'd use, energy drinks taste like ****.

These aren't the most pleasant-tasting things in the world, either (well, at least the orange-flavored tastes like a kiddie vitamin, so it's fairly tolerable). That being said, it's only a 2-oz shot as opposed to a 32-oz can.

Pepsi Max works pretty well for me also.

Here's some good stuff from Thinkgeek. I got some of this as a Christmas present a while back:

Also more sugar per can than anything other than Code Red Mountain Dew.

I re-discovered Sunkist freshmen year, then two weeks later took a drink of (regular) Mtn. Dew. Spit it out because I thought it had somehow spoiled and gone sour. Only after someone else told me it "tasted fine" to them did I compare the amount of sugar between Sunkist and everything else...

Barq's Root Beer has caffeine as well, it's the one with BITE!! :wink:

EDIT - Guess I should have read the link first, it's on the freakin' list...

I find a straight injection of Mt. Dew into the blood stream works just fine for the early morning hours!
