.. rubric:: Request rejected with maximum tea energy

This endpoint refuses to brew coffee.

Per `RFC 2324 <https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc2324>`__, the server
is proudly operating in **teapot mode** and therefore declines all
coffee-related duties.

   X-Teapot-Status: steeping

   Short and stout.
   Tip me over and pour me out.

1. Confirm the beverage is tea-adjacent.
2. Remove any espresso ambitions from the request payload.
