Whether you can’t stand coffee, are looking for a substitute for your children at the coffee party, or just want to try something new: We’ll introduce you to delicious alternatives to the brown luxury food!
With and without caffeine: coffee substitutes
For many people it is part of a fixed morning ritual, helps to overcome the midday slump in the office, or simply improves their mood: coffee. The scent of freshly ground and brewed beans alone lifts the spirits, and the caffeine does the rest with its invigorating effect. But what if there is an intolerance to coffee or an alternative is required for other reasons? Then there are tasty solutions for a coffee substitute that doesn’t need to hide behind the original. Formerly referred to somewhat disrespectfully as “Muckefuck”, the “Mocca faux” (fake coffee) is very popular today. Try the offer with us!
Malt coffee
Made from malted, roasted barley, the malt coffee is reminiscent of the product made from beans in color and taste. Caffeine-free and low in potentially stomach-irritating tannins, this alternative is very suitable in every situation, for example as a coffee substitute during pregnancy.
Grain coffee
In addition to malt, other types of grain can form the basis for a tasty coffee substitute. Spelled and rye are particularly noteworthy here. Just like real coffee comes in blends with different types of coffee, grain coffees with multiple grains are also available. The popular country coffee, for example, consists of barley, barley malt, rye, and, in addition, chicory.
Chicory coffee
This coffee substitute is made from the root of the common chicory (chicory), which is also often found along the way in this country. Chicory coffee is caffeine-free and also gluten-free, which makes it an option for anyone who wants or has to avoid gluten.
Coffee from lupins
Sweet lupins are a relatively new plant whose seeds can be used as a coffee substitute. Since it grows in Germany, lupine coffee performs better than coffee made from beans in terms of the ecological balance. Depending on the variety, the taste of the caffeine and gluten-free substitute differs greatly from coffee. Our tip: Use this alternative for our iced coffee recipes!
