    Coffee in the afternoon as opposed to the morning can help you avoid that afternoon crash too, rather than contribute to it.

      That’s been my strategy as well. I find I have enough energy early in the day, but it’s nice to get a boost in the afternoon.

      There was some studies about timing of coffee and your body already needs like an hour or two to “wake up” before coffee to avoid a crash.

      I’d have to dig it up again, but I have just been drinking coffee a few hours after I wake up around 9 or 10 and have gotten no crashes really!

      I don’t think I’ve ever had a coffee crash but I definitely tend to be a mid to late morning coffee drinker. It’s never really been intentional. I just enjoy the ritual of drinking coffee so I leave it until after my morning obligations.

        Afternoon, preferably right after lunch, so you don’t crash.
