If you ain't chugging the glass of water off your night stand as the very first drink of the morning, y'all are missing out.

After that, I have a NOS. Energy Drinks are the socially acceptable morning beverage that isn't coffee. Or orange juice. Or milk.

"Coffee in the Morning" is a cultural phenomenon. You can argue the relative merits of different beverages and times to drink them, but the status of coffee has nothing to do with nutrition or biochemistry.

I wonder what those at !coffee@lemmy.world have to say about this.

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !coffee@lemmy.world

Idk either, i usually start my days with a coffee, but have started some with a can of red bull as well. I think drinking anything other than water is pretty much never "the best thing" for you, so whether it's coffee or soda, if you can work it into a otherwise healthy diet: you drink your soda I'm the morning, or coffee, or tea or whatsoever. We're all adults here and shouldn't be judging each other over such petty things anyway
