I told my spouse I was quitting coffee, and it's basically been this story for the past couple weeks lol. What are some good alternatives to coffee you'd recommend? I tried MUD\WTR, it was awful. And tea just doesn't cut it for me.

What is the goal of quitting drinking coffee? Are you trying to quit caffeine? Because you could drink decaf coffee to help ween yourself off the hard stuff. If you are still wanting caffeine, since I do not like the taste of coffee and I don’t want to drink a bunch of sugar, I drink diet soda. You get the caffeine without the sugar and no coffee is needed:

I also like to delude myself into thinking I'm capable of quitting coffee lol. I haven't found any alternative that works. I figure any form of caffeine is as good/bad as another, so I've just accepted that I'm going to chug coffee at the start of every day and there's not much I can do about it.

I started using those little Mio flavored water things, but one with caffeine in the morning, then regular ones later. Measure and look at the label though! Cannot believe how concentrated one of the bottles was. That being said though, I guess this is only a good rec if you don’t want to cut out caffeine.
