I know it's hardly any calories the way I drink it, but I could really do without breating coffee breath all over my patients every day.

Anyone have any alternatives that is just as good, still give me a kick in the morning without this side effect?

At one point I was drinking hot chocolate with caffeine in it, but I imagine it has too much sugar in it.

    Shakeology, The Healthiest Meal of the Day. I used to drink DD coffee every morning. Now I just have 1 cup, once a week, if that.

    I like the Green Tea too, however, I really like the "Zipfizz" sold at Sam's Wharehouse. No calories, and provides energy. Don't drink on an empty stomache.

    Green tea won't give you the same caffeine boost you're used to with coffee. The only tea that will do that and be natural is black tea.

    Try black tea, I saw on Dr. Oz yesterday that it helps fight bad breath :) also Mate tea is similar caffeine to coffee.
