Pretty much what we did on work trips only because we were in a hurry to get to the job site and you are almost guaranteed to pass a starbucks on your was to work.

Whenever possible we try find a mom&pop coffee shop, found one in Berkeley... line coming out the door... we got our coffee and jumped back in the car and started sipping our coffee on the way to the job. Half way to the job I started sweating and shaking, I turned to my partner and ask "are you feeling this?", "yep", we are pretty hard core coffee guys but had to pour the rest out. Pretty sure they were 'fortifying' the coffee somehow.

Wife does likes the coffee flavored sugar water starbucks serves, I take my coffee black, maybe a shot of whole milk if I'm feeling extravagant.
