Breaking the coffee habit. Substitute other than tea, cocoa, or grain coffees?
I have a bad coffee habit (like many of us) and I’m wondering if anyone might suggest an interesting substitute. I’ve used tea, hot cocoa, and the sort of grain wheat/barley substitutes such as Caffix. It would be nice if Walmart would at least carry the grain beverages though.
Yerba Mate is a good sub for a variety of reasons. It has a cousin of caffeine (xanthine) that will give you a similar buzz, but there is no withdrawal if you go a day without it.
I used to get it as a latte with vanilla syrup in it when I had the bucks to blow on it.
Celestial Seasonings makes it as “Morning Thunder” which also has some cinnamon in it I think.
