My understanding is that if you drink water for pleasure, you say shehakol. But if you drink water simply to keep yourself hydrated, you don’t say a blessing.

Does the same logic apply to coffee? If you drink it for pleasure, you say shehakol, but if you drink it simply to stay awake, you don’t say a blessing?
