Dandelion Coffee Alternative

By Suhail Rivera, JD
Founder of Alkaline Herb Shop

INGREDIENTS:

1 tbsp coconut flakes
1 tbsp dandelion root
1 tsp carob powder
8 oz boiling spring water
tumbler

INSTRUCTIONS:

In a glass tumbler, add all the ingredients. Brew for five minutes, then remove the strainer. Sweeten with date sugar and enjoy!

Dandelion root is naturally caffeine free, which is why it stands in for coffee so well. If you would rather not measure, a dandelion root tea bag does the same job.
