Coffee Substitutes

Buying Tips

Look for coffee substitutes in the coffee and tea section of health food stores and grocery stores.

Varieties

Coffee substitutes are available in a variety of flavors in either a ready-to-brew or an instant, powdered form. The brewing variety is more aromatic and flavorful.

Preparation, Uses, & Tips

If you’re trying to reduce your coffee intake, add brewed coffee substitute to regular coffee to slowly kick the habit. Use an espresso maker for brewed coffee substitutes with a deeper, richer flavor.

Storing

Store them, tightly sealed, in a cool, dark cupboard.
