I don't like coffee, but caffeine is one to be a bit careful about. I'd recommend tea or coffee instead of energy drinks any day. Because I don't like coffee, I have tea if/when I need a bit of a boost... buuuut caffeine is still a drug -
Caffeine is a central nervous system (CNS) stimulant of the methylxanthine class.[10]

It might not be super bad, but as Henu the Great said, you should empower yourself rather than rely on a substance.
