Trying To Kick Your Coffee Habit? Drink This Instead! (894 hits)
When I reflected on my relationship with coffee, I realized that I don't even really like the taste of it. I love it more for the routine and that faithful jolt it offers me. But after almost two weeks without coffee, I have found myself with more sustained energy throughout the day and I sleep more soundly without waking up in the middle of the night like I used to.
Whether you are trying to cut back on caffeine or just want to switch up your morning routine, this is a lovely warm treat. It tastes like earthy, malty hot chocolate and is filled with fiber, magnesium, iron, protein, amino acids, antioxidants, and some healthy fat to keep your brain thriving.
