Why Dandy Blend? It tastes remarkably like a rich, full-bodied cup of coffee, no brewing, dissolves instantly in hot or cold liquid. It is caffeine-free and has no acidity or bitterness. It is one of the only herbal coffee substitute in the US that features both the health benefits of dandelion root and the rich, full-bodied flavor, smoothness and texture of real coffee. Many say that, because it lacks bitterness and acidity, it actually tastes better than coffee.
It is made of water-soluble extracts of roasted roots of dandelion, chicory and beets, and the extracts of barley and rye grains. Nothing else is added. While we make no claims for Dandy Blend other than that it is a delicious herbal beverage with the taste, body, and texture of coffee, the ingredients – dandelion, chicory, and beet roots, and barley and rye grains – are all health-promoting foods respected throughout the world.
Ingredients
Extracts of roasted barley, rye, chicory root, dandelion root, and beetroot.
Warnings Dandy Blend is sensitive to moisture. This package must be resealed after each use.
Usage
Dandy Blend is so versatile that, depending on how much powder you use, it can be everything from a pleasant, nutty roasted tea to a rich, strong espresso. It also is the easiest way to get the benefits of dandelion root into your diet. Add one spoonful in a cup of hot or cold liquid, stir, and it is ready to drink. It makes a particularly good iced coffee for use in warm weather.
1 level tsp per 8 oz = tea-like beverage
1 rounded tsp per 8 oz = rich, full-bodied coffee
1 heaping tsp to 1 tablespoon for an espresso strength beverage
Since I gave up coffee I haven’t found anything as good! I often have this first thing in the morning by just adding a generous spoonful to boiling water and then almond milk. When the season is cooler sometimes in the late afternoon I like it with cinnamon and whipped cream. There’s no waste, no mess, and no waiting and it tastes really good!

It's no Reishi Roast, but it's damn good
When Reishi Roast is out of stock, this is the next best thing. I have been a huge fan of Dandy Blend for years. It's helpful during those times when I'm trying to cut back on or eliminate caffeine. As a black coffee drinker who has been a part of the coffee business for years, and whose partner is a skilled coffee roaster, it's hard to find something that's fake and yet still satisfying. But this is such a smooth and tasty substitute, not to mention healthy. It's not coffee, but it's the thing I turn to when I'm drinking not-coffee. I recently added a bit of cacao, cinnamon, and a few adaptogens and other herbs to try to emulate Reishi Roast (which was temporarily out of stock) because I was going through withdrawals. Not bad!

afternoon iced drinks!
I'm so glad I found this. I can make an afternoon iced 'coffee' with Dandy Blend and not end up wide awake at 3 am. Yes!! I also like it mixed with my morning coffee.

I've struggled with digestive issues most of my life and have tried many different bitters over the years. These are among the best I've found! They're gentle but effective, and they taste good. Highly recommended!
Wonderful effective cream. A tub please rather than tube.
This product was referred to me by a friend awaiting hip replacement surgery and I have been so thankful. It gives relief from RA inflammation pain when I apply at night (RA pain thank you for and inflammation increases over night) and have also used for my husband for this body pain. I have previously tried traumeel with no help at all. The only downside is the tubes are so small! I do get the large tube but would prefer a tub to be able to use every drop of the cream rather than wasting what can’t be squeezed out of the tube
