The taste of coffee varies with the variety (or varieties, in a blend), as well as the way it's prepared. Instant coffee will give you a jolt, but I've never found one that tastes like good fresh brewed coffee, properly made by drip method, from freshly gound beans.

Why don't you try Vivarin caffeine pills? One pill is equal to the amount of two cups of coffee. One pill every 3-4 hours is all you need :D It's safe and can be found in your local supermarket. Non-habit forming, just take it when you need the boost. Link

If you want caffeine, you don't have to drink stuff. You can buy caffeine in tablet form very cheaply. A brand called Jet Alert is sold at Kmart and Target. It is much less expensive than "No Doz" or "Vivarin" and comes in either 100 mg or 200 mg size (100 mg is about the amount in a cup of coffee.)

I used to work in a place where all the coffee in the breakroom was decaf. I drank it and popped a Jet Alert at the same time, and presto! Re-constituted caffeinated java!

theres a caffine limit, eventually u'll just feel queezy and stuff, which doesn't help your productivity. plus, vivarin doens't taste good:)
