It's actually called the 375 "ouch and ouch"!!

I might be bucking the tide here, but seeing as I cannot digest coffee I make 1/12 to 2 cups of chai with strong black tea, milk, honey and spices in the morning on the tailgate, drink that with a huge piece of apple cake or home made bread with peanut butter and jam well before daylight and then I'm off hunting for the day.
Redbull the moment I wake up. That gives me enough boost to get out of my sleeping bag so I can start making coffee (in the rare case my wife hasn't made sone already or I'm solo)
Those Starbucks Via packs as others have mentioned are very good and convenient.
We use a pocket rocket stove to boil up water really quick. Also picked up another pocket stove recently that came with an adapter so it can use propane or isopro butane (I imagine the same adapter would work on the pocket rocket) so much cheaper.
Nescafe makes a 2:1 you can get in the international foods isle its pretty decent for 3.50 a serving.... Or you know ... Redbull
If we have time its the old dripper,but if its hurrisome jagermeister; not too much 1/2 ounce ; tummy wakes up you will feel awake and here comes the poop train! Once you try it you will believe! My old Ukie uncle used to give us a tablespoon of his hooch on the farm in alberta to get up and do chores , then auntie would have breakfast ready an hour later talk about production who says spirits aren't salvation? Horseee
PIGS IS PIGS;BUT HOG'S IS HOGS!
I hear ya, I just need caffeine to avoid the withdrawal headache. So I’m pretty sure I’ve got most folks beat with how low my standards are for my caffeine intake: while sheep hunting I just open a pack of Via down the powder and wash it down with a mouthful of water. It’s awful.
starbucks via for backpacking, french press at the truck or camping. the vias are quite acceptable, but i like to start the day with a well brewed cup from the press at least.
if I'm camping in the wall tent, then percolator on the stove, or french press....I don't like to get up and go, I like to wake up early and slowly get ready, let the morning dump work itself out before I start hunting
for backpacking I like the starbucks instant stuff, easy to find and tastes good...but the best stuff was probably Jed's bean bags, which I've only ever seen in NZ....it's a tea bag with ground coffee, simple and easy, I flew home with a big supply of the stuff

you could buy empty tea bags and make your own pretty easily
