I drink coffee all day, but l have been weening myself off of it. Lately l have been drinking chai tea, but l actually like roobios. And that doesnt have any caffeine.

Oh yeah. Chai tea. I love it. Haven't had it lately. I think I am going to make a tea now.

Dont quote me on this, but l have heard the caffeine in tea lasts longer throughout the day.

i think green tea has L-theanine which slows the caffeine uptake

I like that. I just had a cup. I feel great. I think I'm going to go with green tea for a bit. Thanks for the info. I didn't know that.

A slower burning less intense caffeine. That sounds good.

Right. As l have gotten older, l have noticed my body doesnt do well with too much coffee. Tea seems a bit more gentle on the body. Especially acid reflux.

+1 for the Chai Tea. I have an oat milk chai tea every morning and now no longer drink coffee.

Makes me much less jittery and agitated while also saving me a fortune as I make it at home.

I literally just made myself a green tea with oat milk and I think I will do this instead of coffee for a while. Still satisfying.

I tried costcos matcha green tea. I didnt think it was too bad.

Well, I made it for my friend and I. And they drank it with milk....so it isnt really kosher lol

What is kosher? Not milk I guess? I like oatmilk. Just as a preference now. I used to use the really crappy sweet coffee mate type fake stuff in my coffee. Now it's gross to me
