What’s better to drink in the morning: water, tea, or coffee?

Quick take: start with water, then choose tea/coffee if you want 😉

• Water 💧 (best first): after sleep you’re a bit dehydrated. One glass (250–400 ml) helps your body “boot up.” Warm or room temp—both fine.
• Tea 🍵: gentler than coffee and often easier on the stomach. Green/black are fine; herbal = caffeine-free.
• Coffee ☕: also totally okay if it suits you. Ideally after water and preferably after breakfast (or at least not on a completely empty stomach) to avoid stomach irritation and jitters.

Simple morning routine:

1) Water 💧

2) Breakfast 🥣

3) Coffee/tea ☕🍵

If our app tracks water/caffeine:

• Log that first glass of water right after waking—easy daily win ✅
• Track coffee/tea separately so you can spot if caffeine is creeping up or replacing water.

Go easy on coffee if: you have reflux/gastritis, anxiety, high blood pressure, or poor sleep—try a smaller serving or switch to tea.
