Dandelion Coffee, a novel drink surpassing Coke Milk Tea that is popular in the United States.

What do Americans like to drink? Coffee or tea? That may be true, but an even more popular drink is taking America by storm.

This is a drink called dandelion coffee. Dandelion coffee is an herbal substitute for coffee that tastes similar to coffee, but is cheaper and less irritating. This drink was used as a substitute for coffee during the lean years of World War II. Today it finds its way into American restaurants, cafes, bars and even Starbucks.

Erin Johnson, a waiter at Kitchen Mouse, a vegetarian restaurant in Los Angeles, said,"We started serving dandelion coffee a year and a half ago, and it's becoming more popular. A lot of people like the coffee flavor, but without the caffeine stimulation." Erin Johnson also expressed her love for dandelion coffee."When I first tasted this drink, I thought I loved it."

Detoxification, dispersion stagnation gas, heat poison, detoxification, eliminate evil swelling, tuberculosis, furuncle swelling." "Materia Medica Justice" also said: "dandelion, its cool nature, cure all furuncle, carbuncle ulcer, redness and heat poisoning diseases, can be applied, quite fulfilled, and the treatment of breast carbuncle furuncle, redness and hardness, especially effective... From the perspective of health, dandelion roots are also rich in zinc, potassium, iron and other rich minerals, but also can nourish the stomach.

The ingredients of this drink are not only dandelion roots, but also barley, rye, chicory and beetroot. If you mix the milk during brewing, it will look like coffee you buy at Starbucks. It is said that this dandelion coffee is rich in vitamin B and can also provide a lot of energy. "Dandelion coffee's calories might make you confuse it with coffee."
