No coffee? No problem!

What if you don't like coffee? That's okay! There are many different options for the non-java junkies out there who want to get their caffeine fix, if you go to a coffee shop or not.

If you aren't going to a coffee shop, there is regular options such as soda, tea, green coffee based drinks, energy drinks, or even semi-sweet chocolate has a little caffeine!

If you are going to a coffee shop, most have both iced and hot teas. Some tea has caffeine, but some do not. (I will address types of tea and caffeine levels in a later post). A very popular coffee shop that has a store everywhere in the world, has a green coffee based drink that tastes like a fruit juice. It has almost as much caffeine as a cup of coffee. Most mocha based syrups have a tiny bit of caffeine in them, so a cup a hot chocolate has a slight zing.

There's also a few options if you want to go out, that don't have any caffeine in them at all. There's lemonade, non-caffeinated tea, apple cider (try caramel apple spice at Starbucks during the fall, it's amazing!), and smoothies. All are great options if you're trying to avoid caffeine or getting a drink for a child.
