I will put the various teas at atleast A tier, green tea, white tea, oolong tea, Kashmiri kahwa et al. Yerba mate A/B tier, coffee B tier.
Coffee is just lower because it gives jitters, dehydrates, and is a diuretic. And I loved coffee all my life. No more, green tea is better.
You forgot McDonald's sprit.
Water is A tier. Sparkling water is S tier.
Sap from plants! Filtered water with natural nutrients. Still water, but with essential nutrients - brought to you by MFN!
S Tier for me is Ice cold water mixed with some good peach syrrup and some lemmons.
I'm going to disagree. Water, alone, is about a B+, maybe an A-. If you've ever been working out really intensely, to the point where you feel nauseous and could drink a liter of water and still be desperately thirsty, then you'll understand that you also need to get electrolytes, things like sodium, potassium, and magnesium. The mineral content in plain water is too low for that; a sugar-free (preferably unsweetened) sports drink is going to be better for you than water alone.
I love me some cold water, but I love cold carbonated drinks EVEN MORE. Now what?
