Morning prep presents an especially dumb hurdle. Steeping, brewing, cooling.
There are workarounds. Coffee makers with timers: brew the thing and let it cool to drinkability before waking. Or steep the tea the night before: refrigerate and nuke in the morning. Coke Classic meanwhile is ready straight from the fridge, as I've experienced while writing this first thing in early A.M.
A pill would be easier. Gummies, perhaps. Lazy American consumerism.
