Benefits of Caffeine...there are many...here are three LOADED benefits!
CAFFEINE CONTENT
15-30mg -- Green tea, Special Dark Bar, DECAF Coffee
40-70mg -- Black tea, colas, Mountain Dew, espresso
FDA limits amount of caffeine in pop to 71mg and Mountain Dew has this maximal level
100-200mg -- Coffee
Note: drink for drink, coffee has more caffeine than espresso! Ounce for ounce, espresso leads!
2. ALTER YOUR INTAKE -- try any COMBINATION of regular and decaf.
For example, 1/2 and 1/2, a quarter regular, or a quarter decaf.
3. If you're anything like me, and the simple THOUGHT of coffee gives you energy,
then try this SWITCH-A-ROO.
Fill a regular tin of coffee with decaffeinated coffee. Just a little mental trick; you'll see a container of "regular" every time you use it!
If you like to drink several cups of coffee, your body can take in the caffeine a bit more SLOWLY, and enjoy your cup(s) over a longer period of time.

4. Now for the FLAVOR trick!
My favorite Keurig flavor is LIMITED EDITION PUMPKIN SPICE -- Yum!!
Now all you have to do is sprinkle a little PUMPKIN PIE SPICE and stir it in with a scoop of instant coffee and hit the HOT WATER button on your Keurig coffee machine! Save yourself the 50 cents of a K-cup!
Add a little almond milk and viola!
CREAMY PUMPKIN PIE LATTE
5. To make it more like an actual latte (don't be too mad at me coffee connoisseurs!...remember, I try to make things simple, fast, healthy), add 4 oz almond milk to your mug before you add 4 oz hot water from the Keurig Brewer. You will probably then want to warm your drink in the microwave for about 45 sec., and enjoy!
