Coffee

"Coffee: the finest organic suspension ever devised. It's got me through the worst of the last three years. I beat the Borg with it."

- Kathryn Janeway

Coffee is an Earth beverage, produced from the bean-like seeds of the several types of coffee plant. There are also a number of comparable beverages from other planets that were also considered to be "coffee".

Basic Earth coffee is generally served hot, and is deep brown in color, though it can be modified in countless ways – served frozen or cold, with cream, sugar, or any number of flavorings. It is usually high in the stimulant caffeine, and was used by many for these properties, especially in the morning. Some also believed it capable of curing drunkenness or a hangover.

Fun Facts:

• While Jean-Luc Picard was most known for being fond of Earl Grey tea, he did imbibe coffee on rare occasion.
• Captain Kathryn Janeway was well-known for her addiction to "black coffee" (no milk or cream).
  She consistently had a cup first thing in the morning, and often refused to start the day without it. She once attempted to give it up, without success.
