The old model of cubicles, strict divisions of labor, and a rigid hierarchy in the workplace has been completely replaced in recent years. Today, companies care about a lot more than just their bottom line, they care about the company culture itself. Are employees happy? Are they thriving? Are they challenging themselves?

So the next time you find yourself needing a morning pick-me-up, reach for one of these delicious coffee alternatives instead.
