I used to get one egg with 1 tbsp of honey add milk, about 6 oz, and add Brandy to taste, from 1 tbsp, or more. I don’t remember if it really worked for me energy wise but it did for some people.

I used to mix this for a cooling, energy drink:
6 oz. milk, a can of Pepsi, 1 frozen container of lime daiquiri mix, 1 cup, rocky road ice cream, 3 table spoons of honey, 1/2 cup chocolate syrup, 3 oz orange juice 1 banana and 1/2 cup crushed pineapple.
Place in blender, 30 seconds and pour over small amount of shaved ice.
If you are extremely hot and tired, this will cool you and energize you quick. I used it when working in extreme tempatures.

STEPS:
Choose 1/2 gallon of a flavorful, non-sparkling beverage. Often filtered water and a powdered drink mix are a excellent choice.
Add 3 pinches of normal table salt (sodium chloride)
Add 1 to 2 pinches of potassium chloride based salt substitute.
Add liquid b-vitamin supplements (Add dosage depending on the amount of the refined drink you intend to consume per day. If you’re going to consume the whole batch by yourself in one day, 1/2 to one dose is recommended.)
Add medical/food grade caffeine, no more than 200 mg per serving.
If desired, herbal extracts such as ginseng may be added, as well.
Shake and chill well.
TIPS:
Low- or No-sugar mixes may seem to be counterintuitive for a beverage such as this, but sugar causes insulin to be produced in the body, and once it’s metabolized you can have an “insulin low”, leave-taking you less energetic than before. Even when choosing commercial energy drinks, often the ‘diet’ can is the way to go.
Caffeine is bitter, and finding it in an easily dissolvable form may be hard. Often it may be surpass just to place it out, and take a caffeine tablet supplement (i.e. No-Doz, Vivarin). This also reduces the chance of overdose by poor measurement if you are unsure of yourself.
Chilling the drink will help the flavor, masking the slightly off flavors that the salts and vitamins can add.
Following steps 1 through 3 and leave-taking out the rest of the ingredients will yield an brilliant, effective and cheap sports drink similar to Gatorade or PowerAde.
WARNINGS:
Caffeine overdose can be deadly. Do not consume more than your body is used to handling, and don’t overdo it at that. Caffeine overdose symptoms include, but are not limited to, heart arrhythmia, coma, and death. Don’t be obtuse.
Some base beverages, such as iced tea, may already have some caffeine. Be aware of this when dosing.
B-vitamins are commonly beneficial at quantities over the Recommended Daily Allowance, but overdosing on some of them can have very unlikable effects, as well. Niacin, or vitamin B-3, for example, can cause a very itchy skin rash and elevated body temperature at high dosages. Do not exceed the vitamin manufacturer’s guidelines when plotting your dosages.
Herbs come with their own warnings, as well. Do your research before adding them to the mix.
