    Do you drink it straight from the source or do you put it in some sort of container first?

    For the guys:

    Grab your fishing pole and cut off about 3 feet of line. Attach a treble hook.
    Tie one end of line to the back of your ball cap.
    Run string down your back, between your cheeks, and attach treble hook to one of the boys.
    Now every time your head starts to fall forward, you will receive a nice little "wake up call".
