What is Chicory coffee mix?
Chicory coffee mix is a roasted-root drink made from chicory, often used as an alternative to coffee. Depending on the blend, it may also contain coffee or other ingredients; chicory coffee has a long history in parts of Europe, where it has been served both on its own and mixed with regular coffee.
Its flavour is roasted, earthy and gently bitter, with a softer body than many brewed coffees. You can prepare it with hot water and drink it plain, or add milk or a plant-based drink. It works well at breakfast or as an afternoon cup. Chicory root contributes fibre, while the blend’s caffeine content varies with its ingredients, so check the label if that matters to you. For a milder cup, use less mix or add milk.
