You can't cheat nature,
have a little nap then wash your face and hands in a very cold water thereafter.
You will naturally be awake to purse your task after this experiment.
Goodluck
I know this may sound strange, but eat an apple.... apples will wake you up and give you more of an energy boost then coffee... especially in the morning. Report It

    • A number of soft drinks (particularly dark ones, as well as Mountain Dew) have noteworthy amounts of caffeine.

    Of course, there are energy drinks. If you can find one you like the taste of, they can be quite energizing. I personally like BAWLS.

    If you can't go shopping, and you're stuck with coffee powder, you could mix the powder into ice cream. It'll be somewhat stronger than normal coffee ice cream, but it should be bearable.

    If nothing else works, you could go for mental shocks. If you can figure out a way to do so, scare yourself or make yourself angry. It's hard to sleep when you're riled up.
    hot tea
    banana
    pb on toast
    Try cold water & lots of it, or iced green tea, anything cold keeps me awake. If your in a real bind drink Cola or an energy drink or two, but when the rush goes away you'll be exausted, that's why I try and stay away from sugar & cafinated beverages when I'm serious about keeping up. If you are serious about your coffee though mix some chocolate in it when it's hot (milk chocolate works best) then throw it on ice, it'll not be as harsh that way.
    if its available...thai iced tea... that works wonders.. it's way stronger than coffee.. if you don't have any at home.. run to the nearest asian market and get instant packs for future use!
    Apples are more effective at waking you up in the morning than any available caffeine drink.... I have given up coffee and tea altogether and drink decaf now.
