I kept trying to get into coffee but like tea I just couldn't. My mouth really dislikes both.

Imo you acquire a taste for it if you ever have a job that starts too early and has readily free coffee available.

[–] RebekahWSD@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, my mother told me she gained a taste for it in college. I just drank soda still, I never could gain the taste.

Maybe were it free...

You might have the genetics for hating it. I’m old AF meow and I never could Stockholm’s my way into liking it. It just tastes like bitter dirt water.

If you can't Stockholm your way into it, you might wanna make it a bit Sweder (i'm so sorry)

7 AM shifts made me a coffee addict

5:30am job with a free coffee machine on site got me.

me too! I hate it! The only one I like is Mate tea that my ex introduced me.too. But I do use sugar.

[–] zarkanian@sh.itjust.works 3 points 10 months ago

If you like mate, you should check out guayusa and yaupon. They're in the same family and have similar levels of caffeine, but they taste different.

For me it's the anxiety and jitterines that get me, and you don't even get any euphoria to balance out the buzz. I like the taste of coffee and tea, but if I want a boost I rather just take Benzedrine or snort coke.
