I don’t drink coffee but maybe once a year I wind up in a coffee shop with a group of people. If possible I try to get someone else to order my hot chocolate or whatever alternative drink. All the other customers go to this place a few times a day and have little tolerance for menu browsers.

I don’t drink coffee, tea, or soft drinks (the last of which I gave up four and a half years ago).
There is a Starbucks in our store and the one thing I can’t resist is a Spiced Pumpkin Latte a few times a year when they have it in. I have to ask them to add an extra shot of pumpkin spice to help cover the coffee taste better, but I love it. It is the only real exception to my no-coffee thing.
As for soda, twice a year more or less, usually when I go to the movies or something. I plain old can’t stand tea in any form.
I’ve been slowly getting back into a coffee habit, just a regular cup in the afternoon at work. I still doze off soon after, but I have been known to take a nap after a Jolt cola.
People make fun of me when they see all the sugar I add to coffee, at least half a cup. I really hate the taste and smell of it, BUT, it’s the only thing that works on a migraine or an asthma attack quickly. It’s my emergency medicine.
Asthma, that’s how I started on coffee. Of course as a kid, I needed cream and sugar, but developed a taste for a lot of variations over the years. I still pass that info along to other Asthma sufferers, and it’s amazing how many haven’t heard it before.
my mother drinks coffee alot however it’s in an alternating pattern of pepsi coffee pepsi coffee every time the season changes
I’ve only had coffee twice, and that’s because people at work bought it for me not knowing I don’t drink it. One iced coffee which I struggled through and one McDonald’s coffee which was also a struggle, but as it happened, I really needed the kick that day.
