Energy Buzz

Which gives you a bet­ter buzz of energy, caf­feine or sugar?

Sugar will quickly give me a burst of energy; but when it’s over, I usu­ally end up feel­ing totally drained. Caf­feine takes longer to give me any energy but the extra energy lasts longer and I don’t crash as hard once the caf­feine has worn off. So it seems like a com­bi­na­tion of the two would be best, but if I drink say a can of Pepsi; the sugar far out­weighs the caf­feine and that gives me a quicker harder burst of energy with a cor­re­spond­ing harder crash once the sugar’s burned off.
