Monster Energy's corporate infrastructure exposed: employee training, customer stereotypes, Beast Bux rewards, and a file system API that's STILL wide open.
I have ADHD and energy drinks have been helping me focus when I don’t have access to meds. Somehow Monster is the cheapest among the select few brands that I actually like the taste of (and a lot of people shit on it because of the taste – I guess it shows how subjective it is). I’m not happy about financially supporting a corp that makes money on getting people addicted to sugar, but I can’t deny the effects the drinks have on me
Does coffee not work? It’s about $8 a month for me if I make it at home.
I do pour over in a chemex, a full pot (6 cups) lasts 3 days, and lives in the fridge, just gotta remember to make it the night before if you want it iced.
I cut back on sugar after having kids, and once I cut back really don’t miss it except for icecream or occasional donuts. I’ve also never liked fake sugar tastes. But whatever works for you.

Weirdly, it doesn’t work as well for me. I think the dopamine hit is just not that strong
Coffee stinks, rather drink an energy drink than that crap.
