Morphology
The meaning 'a person who is addicted to caffeine' is directly and transparently derived from combining 'caffeine' (a stimulant) with 'addict' (a person dependent on a substance). This straightforward noun–noun composition follows common, cross-linguistic patterns, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents will readily infer the MWE's meaning.
Etymology
Caffeine addict comes from joining caffeine (the substance in coffee and tea that keeps you awake) and addict (someone who cannot stop using something). So, caffeine addict means a person who needs coffee or tea every day and is 'addicted' to caffeine.
