Do you already miss your old lattes now that you are fully committed to saying goodbye to caffeine, processed sugars, and chemical-laden commercial coffee drinks in 2015? Then you will not want to miss this recipe, which will help you transition easily and deliciously!
Dandy Blend is a certified kosher gluten-free herbal beverage chock full of liver loving goodies such as dandelion, chicory, and burdock root. With just 3 rounded teaspoons daily of this synergistic blend, you can wholly reap the health benefits. (1)
Aside from all the health benefits, let’s make sure we remember to give a shout out to the awesome flavor and decadent coffee-like drinks and smoothies we can create from Dandy Blend. You can make it as strong or weak, add as much or little coconut cream, and add as much or as little unprocessed sweetener as you wish.
