I like my coffee with honey, cream, and a pinch of cinnamon!
If your doc said no caffeine you should be cautious. Sleepy time tea by celestial seasonings puts me to sleep too~ Have a great week!

Different varieties of coffee beans contain different levels of caffeine. Arabica beans range from 1.2% to 1.8%, Robusta beans can reach as high as 2.4%, and some relatively non-commercial beans such as Excelsa (aka Chari) can have almost no caffeine at all, making them a perfect component for naturally low-caffeine coffee bean blends. Also, many processing factors can increase or decrease the amount of caffeine in coffee. See the table below to see a comparison of the amounts of caffeine in various type of coffee and other products.

Approximate caffeine levels in coffee and other products (for similar portions):

Robusta coffee (drip brewed) 140 – 200 mg caffeine per 6 ounce average cup

Arabica coffee (drip brewed) 75 – 130 mg average 6 ounce cup

Arabica/Excelsa blend coffee (drip brewed) 40 – 60 mg average 6 ounce cup

Espresso (typical serving) 30 – 50 mg average 1 ounce shot

Instant coffee 40 – 100 mg average 6 ounce cup

97% decaf coffee 3 – 6 mg caffeine per 6-7 ounces average cup
99.92% Euro decaf standard coffee 8 – 16 mg caffeine per 6-7 ounce average cup
Hot cocoa 10 – 15 mg caffeine per 6-7 ounce cup
Dark chocolate candy bar 50 – 100 mg caffeine per 6 ounce bar
