More buzz for your buckIntern Ailene Sankur discovers what's been missing from her coffee: more coffee!
Buying coffee at 7-11 the other day (too lazy to find a coffee shop, too scared to drink more of my new roomie’s fair trade organic, $15-per-pound coffee), I found this amazing product. Stok, featured here on the Energy Fiend website, looks like a little creamer packet, but is actually more coffee for your coffee: a potent additive that’s the equivalent of one shot of espresso (FYI, espresso actually contains less caffeine than regular coffee, but still…).
Now, the true test of a fun product is if it has a warning label: come on, cigarettes, alcohol…And Stok is the proud owner of a blaring label on its box: Limit 2 a day. Of course, knowing the, “I’ll take you up on that, and then double it” response to a dare, this marketing campaign is fucking genius. I immediately , heart valves be damned.
In a sad testament to how inured I’ve become to caffeine, Stok really didn’t do much. But, in other good news, the “Cocaine” Energy Drink is back! No more need to do the old “grind and bump.”
