These guys sell yerba maté, for tea. If you currently drink tea for caffeine (instead of coffe), you should totally switch to this instead. It contains "mateine," which is much mellower, but just as powerfull as caffeine.
So you don't get jitters, but you do get the lift you need. Also, yerba maté is supposed to be really good for you, vitamin-wise. I can't be certain on that one, since every webpage seems to only quote one guy.
Anyhow, you can get the yerba maté for like $35/lb, which is way cheaper than the $5/75g that it costs in 25count bags. Basically you get one big bag of teabags, instead of 15 little ones.
