Noffee - a coffee replacement that tastes fantastic
I've posted about this before, but I've now perfected it.

I learned that coffee spiked my blood sugar and caused inflammation, so I had to find an alternative. What I concocted has almost the same amount of caffeine as coffee (70mg/cup compared to 90mg/cup), and tastes amazing hot or cold. Zero carbs, 100% natural!

Prerequisites:

- Matcha tea powder: [link to www.amazon.com (secure)]

- Peppermint powder: [link to www.amazon.com (secure)]

- Monk fruit sweetener: [link to www.amazon.com (secure)]

- Electric whisk: [link to www.amazon.com (secure)]

Recipe:
Makes 20oz

2 teaspoons of matcha tea powder
1 teaspoon of peppermint powder
2 teaspoons of monk fruit sweetener
(2 teaspoons of cacao [not coco!] powder if you want it to be mint chocolate flavored)

Add ingredients to a 26oz glass. Add hot water until it reaches about 2/3rds of the glass. Whisk for 30 seconds with the electric whisk (or 60 seconds with a manual one).

Tastes great over ice too, which doubles the amount it makes. You may want to double the sweetener though, since things taste less sweet when they are cold.

Enjoy! Just had some with breakfast that included carbs. Blood sugar reading 1 hour later: 133!!!!

Re: Noffee - a coffee replacement that tastes fantastic
I do almost the same thing with matcha, cacao, and monk fruit sweetener.

I can still drink one cup of coffee in the morning but it is still not enough some days.

2 cups of coffee messes my tummy up.

The matcha and cocoa with just a little monk fruit powder for sweetness gives me a little more energy with no tummy problems.

I start with the matcha and cacao drink and I add different herbs to a second diluted cup on days when I don’t need more caffeine.

I have many herbs that don’t taste great… so the cacao helps make almost
any herb more palatable.

The matcha powder is still strong enough to taste through the cacao and herbs.

A perfect base for almost any combination of herbs.

I thought I had my own secret energy booster recipe! Laughs…

Thanks for sharing.

True, but due to the anti-inflammatory effects of matcha tea, it minimizes the spike from caffeine. I usually have 1 (sometimes 2) 20oz servings of this tea and I do fine compared to coffee which raises my blood sugar by 30!

I like me freshly ground organic Kona with a pad of butter and a splash of sugar free salted caramel syrup. No comparison.

Re: Noffee - a coffee replacement that tastes fantastic
Add a tiny bit of cinnamon and it seems like a
gourmet drink

Now if I could just stand matcha tea... it doesn't like me. hf I am insulin dependent anyway... and the spike from the coffee I just chose my dose of insulin before I eat and drink coffee... All foods raise my blood sugar.. eggs... (proteins)... fats.. carbs .. all of it. My system has changed since when I first went on insulin over 20 years ago now

100% spot on. Added some cylon cinnamon and it's amazing. Cylon cinnamon helps regulate blood sugar, too. So that's an added benefit.
