Another continuity is that a few of the beverages are safer to drink than water. A reason why is because some are boiled. Boiling creates such extreme heat for many bacteria to survive in. For instance, tea is served hot because it is boiled. In addition, there are leaves in tea called “Camellia sinensis” (177) that kill some types of bacteria.…

It was also determined that from 2.2894g of tea leaves, caffeine only contributed to 0.511% of that weight.…
In A History Of The World In Six Glasses, the author Tom Standage addresses how six drinks have changed our history. Just as our history can be split into different ages through the materials we’ve used, we can also separate it into the six glasses that influenced our lives. Beer, wine, spirits, coffee, tea, and cola are the most culturally impacted drinks. Even though all six beverages have equally benefited us, I think some are more important than others. In my opinion, coffee altered the way beverages were made. Coffee helped mankind by waking them up rather than intoxicating like beer or wine.…

Caffeine occurs naturally from the coffee tree indigenous to Ethiopia, and it may have been used as early as 850 AD in Upper Egypt, though it is considered a legend. Coffee is the seed of a cherry from the tree of the genus Coffea. The tree yields about one kilogram of coffee per year. There are over 25 different species of coffee, the three main ones being Robusta, Libaria, and Arabica. The Ethiopians mixed crushed dried coffee beans with rolled fat balls used as food on journeys. Its cultivation and use as a beverage occurred in Arabia. By the early 16th century, the beverage was well-established in the Islamic world. Through cultural diffusion, coffee was a fashionable drug of the 17th and 18th centuries. From thereon, coffee's popularity grew tremendously.
