Yes coffee is a good source of anti-oxidants, but this doesn't include the 'instant coffee' or '3 in 1 coffee sachets'. You need to brew a coffee yourself by using a coffee maker in order to receive the full benefits of anti-oxidants less the chemicals.

Tomas DePaulis,a research scientist says,"People who smoke and are heavy drinkers have less heart desease and liver damage when they regularly consume large amounts of coffee compared to those who don't." It lifts my mood and invigorates me everytime i drink my daily dose of tall 'cafe americano'.

Yes coffe is an anti oxidant. The best anti oxidant is blueberries. Then green tea. Try these to help clean your veins.
