The Weekend Coder: What's Your Favorite Drink to Power through Coding Sessions? ☕🥤💻

We all know how challenging it can be to stay focused and energized during long coding sessions, long workdays, and long study sessions. So, let's hear it: what's your go-to drink when you need a little pick-me-up to power through? Is plain old black coffee or more like a Black Cherry Vanilla Bang? Maybe it’s a healthier option like green tea 🍵 or a smoothie 🍓🍌.

Share your favorite drinks, recipes, or tips for staying energized and productive!

Black coffee, a large glass of cold whole milk, but my favourite getting shit done drink by far - and this is slightly embarrassing but I'm just going to admit to it here anyway: is full sugar Mountain Dew 😅

Black coffee. Usually n-1 cups it takes to induce anxiety shakes 😂☕. Then council pop for the rest of the day. 🚰

Used to be anything goes, but I've been trying this for the past 32 days to try improve focus. 🧘

Water, always water.

Too much coffee or soda drinks gives you kidney stones. You wont listen to me, but you will remember when you are in the hospital in excruciating pain.
