It is really amazing how many people need their coffee in the morning after getting up.

To anticipate this, I also got used to this ritual, but more about it later.

So, the alarm clock rings and it's getting up.
There are some who prefer to get up in several attempts by telling the alarm clock with a quick instruction "too early - try again later", which the alarm clock then does according to his instructions and as often as he is instructed to do so. On some days this happens 4 or 5 times.

When the "standing person" has finally managed to take a more or less upright walking position, it goes to the toilet in an almost fully automatic action. The courageous specimens already dare to take a first look in the mirror at this point. Rarely, however, are people who still go to the toilet with their eyes closed, since they know the way.
And then finally the day-saving way to the first coffee.

Now I hope that many of the "Steemian's" jump out of bed in the morning much fitter and already full of zest for action, after waking up anyway without an alarm clock (technical aid). But what happens next? Do you already long for coffee or do you cultivate another ritual?
What do the "non-coffee drinkers" actually do?
There are some things here that are much more effective for stimulating the metabolism. A glass of clear water or ginger water. A tea in the morning is certainly a good thing. But quite honestly, it will certainly be difficult to "swichen" an accustomed coffee drinker.

BUT
... you can't lump all coffee together. It all starts with how the coffee is made. The passionate filter coffee drinker, who still brews up completely by hand with boiling water, will probably rarely be found. At the other end of the spectrum is probably the Nespresso capsule coffee connoisseur, who is prepared to pay a little more money for a gigantic selection of different types of coffee. With always new, temporary special editions you can experience the true variety of coffee enjoyment and also experience it emotionally in a certain way. (can you hear a little of my own addiction from these words?)

upshot
Whether and how good and above all with which type of coffee the start into the day is better must then be examined even more closely. I am already curious about one or the other comment :-)
I myself think that another fine drink can also take up the position of the "enjoyable morning routine" - if you really want it. Nevertheless, I for myself, stay a little longer on the voyage of discovery through the world of coffee and enjoy the morning moment with myself. 😁
