I drink 1 cup of green tea something every other day. I've been doing this for a a few years and definitely see some benefits:
1. My dependence is way down, sometimes I go 2-3 days without caffeine and I'm fine.
2. It gives me something to look forward to for certain days (quite needed in the pandemic)
3. Allows me to stop fully without any side effects (I always take January off from caffeine)
4. The caffeine high lasts about 6-8 hours with much higher productivity during this time.
5. For me, the green tea doesn't typically give me an anxious caffeine high.
I think caffeine intake is highly personal though. When pushing this to an every day schedule, I definitely feel more addicted and dependent on it. Once in a while (once every two months maybe) I'll feel like the caffeine high tips into an anxious feeling which I hate.
For the record, I drink Honest Tea Moroccan Mint which has 56mg of caffeine. Obama drinks Honest Tea Green Dragon Tea.
