Are you known around the office for being a big coffee drinker? Do you own a huge honking coffee cup that can practically fit an entire pot of coffee in it? Well if you answered yes, try this cup of Joe on for size! Mauricio Cadavid set the Guinness Record for the largest cup of coffee back in 2007. His giant Styrofoam mug equaled over 16,000 cups of coffee!

While Cadavid's cup is certainly cool, some of us are looking to lessen your caffeine intake. If you're in the same boat I am, try starting out with baby steps. Consider ordering half-caf when you get your favorite frappe...Half the caffeine, but the same amazing taste.

If you brew at home consider brewing a shot of Illy Café Espresso Whole Bean Decaf. Try making a double-shot beverage, using one shot of decaf and one shot of regular espresso.

If you are looking for a coffee alternative, try exploring the wonderful world of tea. Teaposy is one the best kept tea secrets. Having known nothing about it, I tried a blossom the other night. Not only is the tea flavorful and low in caffeine, it's a visual spectacle as the tea blossoms and bursts into different colors in the teapot.

Regardless of whether you go with coffee or tea, switching to decaf doesn't mean sacrificing great taste. With a little bit coffee and tea savvy, you taste buds won't ever notice switch!
