MB Herbals Instant Chicory Root Powder 227 Gram (0.5 lb / 8 oz) | Roasted & Granulated | Gluten Free | Instantly Dissolves in Hot Water and Milk

I discovered the liquid form of roasted chicory root drink at a ukranian market and kinda fell in love. It's woodsy, subtly sweet, strong, a little chocolatey, it just has a somewhat strong bitter taste that hits at the very end, which takes some getting used to, but it really does feel like a substitute to coffee. It doesn't taste like coffee, but as a strong, dark, roasted beverage, i'd take this over decaf 9/10 times. It's even good mixed a bit into coffee. Dissolves in hot water (haven't tried cold) instantaneously. I got some of the powder here because I can't seem to find the liquid stuff online, and found about 5 or 6 teaspoons (measuring teaspoons) is correct for a good strong 400-500ml cup But I also had an idea and dissolved about a half cup of it in 2l of water and refrigerated it, and WOW. it's amazing iced. Almost all the bitterness is pulled away, just like cold brew coffee. I'm actually going to try mixing this with some instant espresso for a more flavorful cold brew. Overall, good value too. I'm buying more of it right now. I think it's a bit less strong than the liquid extract, but it's still plenty strong and overall very well balanced, so I'll stick to the powder (which is easier to measure anyways)

It's the consistency of instant coffee and works exactly the same. Typically in the morning after drinking 17 oz of water with vitamin C and MSM, i make a nice warm cup of the chickery. If I have Maple syrup I might add a little bit of that sometimes I add a little coconut powder. And it feels really nice on my stomach, if I have to hydrated mushrooms then I powderize those. And keep that in a separate container , and I might mix the two and make a yummy , chicory and mushroom morning beverage. And I do keep coffee grounds in an old-fashioned glass container from the 70s, so I use the grounds and the chicory and I mix everything together with a little baking soda, I mix everything together that way, when I wanna make real coffee, I still get some of the nice health benefits. And I don't have to worry about fussing with everything every single time. The size of bag is very well worth it.\n For the price point, the convenience and the ease of preparing a cup. If you have your kettle, it literally takes within a couple minutes to have a nice warm beverage and you don't have to clean up all the coffee grounds that's a big bonus. This is definitely a product. I am going to keep in the cupboard. This would be good to take off for camping trips, hiking, any of that stuff, you could even buy those little, tiny individual plastic ziploc bags that they make for kind of like the Popsicle bags and you could fill up smaller ones with this.So, you know it's like 1 or 2 servings.So when you are out camping you just dump and you don't have to carry such a large bag with you. The smell is wonderful.The flavor is great.There's no bad aftertaste.\nNo grit just smooth drinking.

A wonderful coffee substitute. The flavor is very coffee like, I have it every morning and it dissolves perfectly in hot water. I add some stevia and a splash of almond milk creamer. It is definitely bitter, but it tastes just like coffee to me. I’m not a huge coffee drinker so maybe someone else would tell the difference, but the little bit of creamer makes it really feel like a coffee. I do enjoy the taste without creamer as well with a small amount of stevia. I also enjoy drinking it knowing there are some health benefits to chicory root, it makes me feel good to drink it. I also make it iced after I’ve mixed it in water and made sure it dissolved. You could also add some instant coffee for some caffeine. I’m ordering again.

It tastes good, like a type of flavored coffee. It's also caffeine free and has health benefits; It contains inulin, a prebiotic that supports a healthy gut. The only thing i dont like is the paper-bag packaging. I prefer the plastic, as the outside wont get damaged if it gets wet. It dissolves in hot water instantly, like instant coffee. One small teaspoon is enough with sugar. I still enjoy my coffee but this is also a nice, healthy alternative. Only think i wish they would change is the packaging- it's like paper bag type packaging, which if it gets wet gets damaged like paper. I prefer plastic.

I find it a very good coffee substitute. It does have a slight sweet taste, which I don’t mind. For some reason coffee dehydrates me so this is a good substitute. There are some side effects for those with a sensitive stomach but for me it’s not an issue.
