that would be tough even for me. im not a big tea fan but I don't think there were many other sources of caffeine or just water flavorings.
Depends at what point during rationing, but it wouldn't be too hard to get coffee at all. And even then you had the lucrative black market. You would obviously be worse off than your peers who liked tea though.
