[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 679385, member: 1963"] Oddly, he could drink a pot of coffee and go to sleep. Ritalin kept him awake. The only thing that i can figure is that he'd been drinking strong (Viennese) coffee since childhood and was "used" to caffeine. I got him started on the English style tea when he was in his late teens, so he'd had some time to get used to that, though early on it was pretty funny as while he could swill coffee all day, two mugs of "my" tea gave him the shakes. It may have been the theine in the tea that nailed him. I've become sensitive to caffeine since menopause and can only tolerate one or two mugs of my tea when i first get up. I can have no caffeine after 2PM if want to have a hope of sleeping that night. I still drink PG Tips (Thank You Amazon) with milk and sweetener. I don't like hot coffee, but like some cold coffee beverages (the caloric ones) [/QUOTE]
