Mixing full caf and decaf for my coffee / myLot

United States

June 28, 2021 8:55am CST

So, I like to have caffeine in my coffee, there are benefits to doing that, and also I enjoy the taste. However, I find when I drink decaf it helps with my sleep..so what's a gal to do? In this case I am mixing both. I have a bit more of the caffeinated coffee in the mixture, but I try to keep it roughly half and half. Do you ever mix coffee or buy half caf?

I never drink decaffeinated coffee, but I only drink coffee in the morning, never in the afternoon.

@LadyDuck Me too, join the club..water is boring..It helps if you put some lemon or cucumber in it though.

@snowy22315 I should drink more water, I know that I do not drink enough, it's fine during the morning, but not enough in the afternoon.

I don't mix anything in it and like it simple and plain

I have had only caffeinated coffee for awhile, but yesterday I remembered to buy some decaf.

My coffee is not decaf and I have no decaf coffee. So I'm not mixing anything. So, what happened then? Less decaf coffee?

About the same..maybe not quite as flavorful as coffee.

I am caffeine sensitive so this helps with sleep and overall relaxation.

I have done that in the past during the summer months because caffeine isn't the greatest for our bodies during the hot weather, and it worked fine. It fooled my hubby for years because he never realized that I was doing that.

You know me and I'm a full caf person. Can't start the day without that jolt and getting my brain working. But I do keep a can of decaf in the freezer (I heard keeping coffee in the freezer keeps it fresh) so in the afternoon if I'm really in the mood for a cup I'll either mix it or have full decaf. Lately I've been having a cappuccino in the afternoons and it really helps take the edge off instead of having a snack.
