I stopped drinking coffee almost four years ago. And while I love drinking decaf teas (see some of my favorite decaf teas here), I’ve also had fun coming up with some other creative non-coffee alternatives.
One of them that I concocted last year was a mix of The Morning Motivator and Dandy Blend. I had purchased both of these from Amazon since people told me that were yummy and great substitutes for coffee.
When I tried The Morning Motivator by itself, it tasted too chalky to me. And Dandy Blend tasted too strong by itself. But then I had the crazy idea to mix them together — and I fell instantly in love!
This is sort of like a fancy mocha drink — that’s packed with nutritional value AND it’s caffeine free! Here’s how I make it…
Add 1 to 1 1/2 generous teaspoons of Dandy Blend to a large mug.
Then, add 1 heaping teaspoon of The Morning Motivator.
Mix together.
Pour boiling water over.
Stir until blended.
Top with a very generous amount of half & half (if you’re a cream person like me!)
Stir and enjoy!
This is the perfect morning or afternoon pick-me-up drink!
Want to make it really fancy? Top it with whipped cream (and maybe chocolate shavings?) or go all gourmet and use Reddi-Whip Sweet Foam! (Note: This whipped cream is really sweet… so if you don’t like sugar-y things, you won’t like it.)
