I love this immune-boosting caffeine-free dandelion tea latte on a cold winter’s morning. With just a few ingredients this healthy acid reflux-friendly vegan drink is easy to make.
Happy New Year Friends!
We are back home after a sweet holiday with family in Tennessee. We arrived home to foggy, drizzly, and dark days. Perfect weather for something hot to sip while I get back into the swing of everyday life.
I thought I’d take a second to pop in and share this super simple caffeine-free dandelion tea latte. It was posted on Instagram a loooooong time ago, but I thought I’d share it here too.
Lots of folks, me included, are taking part in No Joe January or some New Year cleanse, so I thought I would share my go-to coffee replacement. I avoid coffee most of the time because for people with GERD, caffeine relaxes the lower esophagus and stomach (as we’ve learned in our post, Why Do I Have Acid Reflux, its job is to prevent acid and stomach contents from traveling backward from the stomach).
This caffeine-free dandelion tea latte is filled with benefits for your gut, nutrients that will cleanse the liver and maintain proper flow of bile, plus the addition of MCT oil which helps give your body + mind fuel and clarity. Give it a try!
