Green apples (or any apples!). According to the Discovery Channel they have more caffeine than coffee! In fact, any fruit (except watermelon) can be good because you get a bit of a sugar hit without the High GI effect of something like cookies or cake, where you get sluggish afterwards. It's (also) a different form of sugar.
Try to limit coffee because it makes you dehydrated and this may actually make you spend more time in the bathroom which is less time working. If you do go for coffee, make sure you drink one glass of water per cup to replace lost fluids.
Green tea has more caffeine and isn't quite as dehydrating.
My partner finds a herb called Guarana helpful (I think it's actually in Red Bull??) but I don't find it really works for me. He's up for hours on that!
If you're doing a lot of late nights etc remember the benefit of naps! It's often better to have one or two hours of constructive, alert time rather than three or four where you're sluggish and can't concentrate. Sometimes it can make you feel as if you get two days in one!
Hope it helps!

if you want to stay awake for a long time drink red bull, coffee, coke, or a different type of energy drink. Try to stay away from eating a lot of heavy carbs (pizza, lasanya)- they will make you sleepy. Try eating a sensable meal, and follow it up with some chocolate (chocolate has caffiene in it.. helps you stay awake)

Protein is the food of concentration. Coffee is the drink of wakefulness. A big juicy steak and a cup of Java and you'll be set to work.

Drinking coffee would be good. If that doesn't have any effect on you, perhaps you'd like to snack on some really crispy crackers. The sound they make in your mouth will travel to the back of your ears and it will keep you awake.
Well, it works for me at least.

Coffee, caffeine will help but can make you anxious/nervous. Stay away from sugar and starchy/sugary treats these make you sluggish. Red bull or other energy drinks are good
I hope you do well!

Drink coffee and have good food not junk because that will just put you to sleep.
