What do you drink upon waking up to start your day?
This very early Monday morning, I was amused to find myself having three kinds of liquids on the table beside my laptop: a glass of water (not cold), coffee without sugar, and Eleusine indica tea (Indian goosegrass, wiregrass,crowfoot grass) which has been trending as a good health drink.
Of course I drank the grass tea first, then water, then sip coffee after them. I don't know, but this had been my habit for so long upon waking up. If there;s no tea, I drink lemon or any fresh citrus fruit juice without sugar, followed by water.
If I do not have citrus juice or tea, it's just plain water.
What's your morning drink?

@acelawrites this is how the healthiest way right? People always ask me to do that.

@hereandthere I started drinking it last Sunday; yes I noticed the frequent urination (it is a diuretic), and my knees don't hurt even if I ate peanuts!

They say, your water should not be so cold; at least room temperature or lukewarm. But yours is still good.

I have water before coming to the table, then coffee. I may have milk, or maybe not.

It is healthy to have water first, so some health enthusiasts say.

Always drink water first, or even after drinking coffee.
