7 Weird Caffeinated Items You Can Buy

Are you a coffee junkie? Do you know where every coffee joint is in your 20 mile radius? Is your wallet filled with frequent buyer punch cards at various cafes? Do you spend most of your morning hours sucking down mug after mug of that teeth-staining, warm mud just to have the strength to drag yourself to the office and power on your computer? Are you a "coffee before talky" kinda morning person? Do you literally not know how to hold a pen, compose a sentence or make facial expressions while talking to someone without a coffee-positive blood stream? Are you also tired of spending so much money on a drink that loses its temperature and taste way too quickly to be worth it?
