CAFFEINE FREAK TOM WON’T BAG HIS TEA!

It’s turning him into a monster

-

TOP Gun’s Tom Cruise is brewing up trouble by swilling tons of English breakfast tea — because the highly caffeinate­d beverage is making the peevish perfec perfection­ist even more of a tantr tantrum-prone tyrant, tipste sters tattle.

The Hollywood titan, 6 61, is currently filming Mission: Imposs sible 8 in London, and an a insider dishes, “He’s hoo hooked on England’s fullbodied bodied, black tea that he drinks straight up — and he’s hardly sleeping!”

According to the spy, the harddrivin­g actor is on set by sunrise to maintain his manic schedule — and has an assistant make his morning mug “extra strong!”

The insider squeals, “His tea is keeping him running, but also making him moody and irritable.”

Even worse, spills the source, the conceited superstar is “obsessivel­y cleaning his teeth” to make sure they don’t get stained from the dark drink and is “very conscious about his breath.”

Yet the insider adds, “It doesn’t stop him from gulping down the tea!”

The mole also claims flab-phobic Tom’s diet isn’t helping his foul moods and explains, “He won’t touch any bread, processed sugar, red meat or anything fried. He eats mostly vegetables and grilled fish. For a treat, he’ll have some freezedrie­d blueberrie­s or a few dates with peanut butter. It’s no wonder he’s so cranky!”
