Monster Drink

I’ve looked up caffeine extraction here and other places and oftentimes it involves harsh chemicals or laboratory equipment. Yet I see all sorts of things like water and doughnuts with artifically added caffeine.

I’m actually starting to get into winemaking and would really like to know if there’s a way to extract caffeine from one source like coffee or tea, to then add it to other safe consumables.

Or barring that, is it legal to produce or buy straight caffeine crystals anywhere that are fit for consumption? There must be, it seems like the entire soft drink industry relies on it.

You can purchase caffiene tablets over the counter at any drug store, under several brand names like no-Doze or generics. All they are is 200 mg. of caffiene which is equal to about a cup of coffee.
