FACT: My grandmother lived to 101 and she always had had two cups of (cold) black coffee every day. Even at 101 yrs old she was still sharp as a tack and “with it” mentally. She would have lived longer but was a passenger in a car accident and died from her injuries. R.I.P. Nana! ❤

My grandma lived to be 100, also quite cognitively sharp and still participating in social activities. I don’t think grandma drank her coffee cold, but in my younger years I think she could drink an entire pot of coffee herself. My dad’s oldest sister lived into her 90s, also with good mental acuity. She preferred her coffee quite strong, and her grandson was able to convince the administrator of the nursing home she eventually went to to allow her to keep her coffee maker in her room. Alas, I did not inherit the coffee appreciation gene.
