You're Only Allowed To Drink Coffee If You Can Pass This Quiz

True or false: Black coffee is calorie-free.

Caffeine in excess of five grams is [considered](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15935584) a lethal dose.

What is the minimum amount of coffee that can literally kill you?

According to the National Coffee Association (NCA), [59% of Americans have a cup of coffee every day.](http://fortune.com/2015/03/13/coffee-drinking-declines/)

What percentage of Americans drink coffee everyday?

According to the National Coffee Association (NCA), [Americans drink an average of 1.85 cups per day.](http://fortune.com/2015/03/13/coffee-drinking-declines/)

And what's the average amount of coffee Americans drink every day?

A [2014 study](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24201300) found that moderate coffee consumption is associated with a 10% lower risk of cardiovascular disease.

According to recent studies, drinking 3–5 cups of coffee per day is associated with what:

[Research](http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0149763416300690#bib0985) has shown that caffeine can improve basic cognitive functions like attention, vigilance, and reaction time.

Research has shown that low to moderate caffeine consumption can enhance \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_.

[The story goes](http://www.ncausa.org/About-Coffee/History-of-Coffee) that a herder fed coffee berries to his goats and they became so energetic they couldn't sleep. The herder told a local monk who started brewing a drink from the berries.

In what country is coffee said to have first been drunk?

When coffee was brand new to suspicious Europeans, some called it the [“bitter invention of Satan.”](http://www.ncausa.org/About-Coffee/History-of-Coffee)

A cup of decaffeinated coffee has [2-12mg of caffeine](http://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/nutrition-and-healthy-eating/in-depth/caffeine/art-20049372). (For reference, a cup of caffeinated coffee has 95–200 mg of caffeine.)

How much caffeine does decaf coffee have?

Even though coffee is a mild diuretic, a [2014 study](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3886980/) showed that drinking four cups of coffee per day did not result in dehydration.

Drinking more than a cup or two of coffee causes dehydration.

[Lighter roasted coffees have more caffeine.](https://www.cooksillustrated.com/how_tos/8237-caffeine-content-of-coffee-dark-roast-vs-light-roast) They are roasted for less time and as a result the beans are heavier and denser and contain more caffeine. So, when comparing the same volumes of light and dark roasts, lighter roasts have more caffeine.

Which roast has more caffeine?

[A double espresso has about 150 mg of caffeine. A tall coffee (12oz.) has about 260 mg of caffeine.](https://news.starbucks.com/uploads/documents/nutrition.pdf)

[Sadly coffee cannot help you sober up.](https://www.buzzfeed.com/fionarutherford/things-to-know-about-alcohol-before-freshers-week) Only time can make you undrunk!

Can coffee sober you up?

Even though dopamine and serotonin are [part of the brain's response to caffeine](http://www.precisionnutrition.com/coffee-and-hormones), the main reason coffee makes you feel more awake and alert is that [caffeine binds to the brain's adenosine receptors](http://thebrain.mcgill.ca/flash/i/i_03/i_03_m/i_03_m_par/i_03_m_par_cafeine.html). When adenosine is blocked, it can't do its job, which is to slow down neural activity and make you feel sleepy.

What is the main way that drinking coffee makes you feel more awake?

Iced coffee is usually just coffee over ice. If coffee is [cold brewed](https://food52.com/blog/7317-how-to-make-cold-brewed-coffee), it means it was made by letting coffee grounds steep in water for 12-24 hours and then straining the liquid with cheese cloth (or something similar) to create a coffee concentrate that can be drunk hot or cold.

Which of the following statements about cold brew is inaccurate?

This is a [Chemex](http://www.chemexcoffeemaker.com/about-us), a manual, pour-over style brewing method invented in 1941.

And finally, how do you take your coffee? (Your answer will not affect your score.)
