Coffee has caffeine which is a natural stimulant that can help increase alertness and wakefulness.

Preparation of filter coffee uses a percolator with a metal device that resembles two cylindrical cups, one of which has a pierced bottom that nests into the top of the “tumbler” cup to brew the coffee. The coffee decoction is then mixed with hot boiling milk and sugar. This brewing technique results in a richly flavored, full-bodied traditionally served in a tumbler with a davara. Sometimes, the combination of coffee and warm milk is continuously poured from one vessel to another until it is aerated and becomes frothy.
