Morning coffee truly improves mood

Drinking coffee/tea within the first 2.5 hours after waking up noticeably improves mood, and the effect lasts all day.

Caffeine blocks adenosine receptors and the brain produces more dopamine, which also enhances motivation, according to a new study Scientific Reports.

Interestingly, positive emotions increased regardless of sleep quality or anxiety levels, and the effect was the same for those who regularly consume caffeine and for those who do so rarely, especially noticeable in those who were tired.
