For me it's Coke, Flaming hot cheetohs, synders pretzel bites and anything... like... microwavable pizza esque. Like hot pockets, bagel bites, pizza rolls etc

    I do mostly do Monster, which has less than some of the more extreme brands like Bang. Maybe I am being a little too crunchy, but coffee feels "natural", but I hate the taste of it, whereas energy drinks are this very synthetic thing that I love.

      try something else like yerba mate?

      or get into different kinds of coffee, light roasts with more of a berry aftertaste vs the dark or even burnt crap

      But yeah its not gonna totally sub in for energy drinks because of the B vitamins and shit. Those can really make a difference for some people. One of my friends gets full on manic when they have anything with B vitamins, even with low or no caffeine
