You say that you don't like coffee: have you tried green tea? There's plenty of caffeine in normal green tea, and even more so in the like of Kabusecha or Gyoku

You say that you don't like coffee: have you tried green tea? There's plenty of caffeine in normal green tea, and even more so in the like of Kabusecha or Gyokuro. Though I'm not sure I would recommend the latter for everyday consumption: it really has a lot of caffeine in it.
Black tea should work too. I personally don't like it much unless it comes with a heavy does of something else to mask the taste... but if you like it go for it!
- blacksmith_tb 10y agoAnother reason to go easy on macha is lead, tea leaves often contain it, but it doesn't dissolve into your tea[1]. Macha-s let you digest a lot more leaf. Another option for people who want serious caffeine is yerba mate, which you can buy by the kilo quite cheaply. I find it too strong, but I gave up coffee years ago, too - green / white / oolong / black tea is plenty for me. 1: http://www.green-tea-guide.com/green-tea-lead.html http://www.green-tea-guide.com/green-tea-lead.html
