in reply to Other coffee drink
in thread My preferred source of caffeine is...

Doesn't the alcohol sort of cancel out the caffiene? I guess it has loads of sugar, but that just helps to make you drunk and possibly tired.
Although I knew a guy who liked to drink whiskey when he programmed, I don't know if that helped him much though. He nick-named himself null-pointer-exception boy.

    I was joking about the Kahlua part. In real life I can't stand Kahlua. I think coffee should taste like coffee and alcohol should taste like alcohol, and never the twain shall meet. When I drink alcohol, it's Pernod or nothing.

      I really like Kahlua, especially in the summer as an ice-cold White Russian. Or if I don't want something cold, hot milk with Kahlua is yummy too.

        Try filling up a glass with ice cream (can't go wrong with vanillia, but experiment a little), microwave it, and add some Kahlua and maybe some Irish Cream, too. Great stuff.

      Pernod? You should really try Abisinthe 72 Amer .. if the link is broken, you can search for it. I've ordered about a dozen bottles from that vendor, fast shipping and fair prices.

      lol, Pernod is liqueur, like Kahlua, not alcohol (yes, liqueur contains alcohol).
