Dr. Weeks’ Comments: Are you a coffee drinker or a milk drinker?
How Much Caffeine Is Actually in Your Coffee, From Dunkin’ to Starbucks
After investigating the constitution of the nation’s most-consumed coffees, we found this truth to be self-evident: all cups of Joe are not created equal. Especially ones that have booze in them.

Which happens to be the equivalent of just one cup from our champion, the Death Wish Coffee Company — a roaster who might not give a damn about life or liberty but surely holds fast to the inalienable right to the pursuit of caffeination.
So which is the best coffee to drink for health purposes?
