    Default coffee intoxication/flush ?

    What is the correct word for the feeling you get after drinking coffee : is it "coffee intoxication" or "coffee flush" ?

    Some more suggestions:

    He had a coffee rush.

    He got the coffee jitters.

    He was hopped up on coffee.

    He was hyped up on coffee.
