However, I drink one cup of decaff every day, because I love the taste - black, two sugars. I can't stand the taste of coffee with milk.
I don't have this happen but my riding buddy does. If he drinks Red Bull he starts shaking and going red. He can't drink coffee either. Tes and cider are good for him though.
