Dandy Blend, Instant Herbal Beverage with Dandelion, Caffeine Free, 3 Pack (200 g Each) occurs naturally in the roots

Much has been written about how great this product is and of all kinds of benefits it has, so there is no need to elaborate on that, other than add my vote to it.The purpose of this review is sharing some practical usage and storage tips with the "newbies" so you don't accidentally waste and have to throw away your supply.There are smaller packages of Dandy blend available even here on Amazon, however economically this size makes best practical sense, as it's the least expensive (price per oz) option, provided you will store it right.The instruction on the label say that Dandelion is sensitive to moisture and the bag needs to be resealed completely after each use. However I found out that itself is not enough (I live in area with high humidity).From my experience, the best thing to do if you buy this size is to either share it with a friend and/or do the following: I put mine in a small size glass mason jar with a lid and store it in the fridge (or even freezer, either way).What is left, stays in the original bag, gets sealed, put in additional Ziploc bag and stored in the freezer. There it will last quite a long time.What happens if you leave it at room temperature is, it absorbs moisture and hardens into a block pretty quickly, and you have to literally chisel it to break a piece off, plus it dissolves lot harder and loses some original flavor, so it pretty much gets ruined. I found out the hard way and had to throw away quite a sizable amount the first time I bought it.Cold temperature will keep it nice, powdery and fresh for a long time.You can play with the concentration (some people like less, I prefer mine stronger), drink it 'just like that' or put all kinds of enhancements in:sweeteners (I don't use white sugar, prefer stevia, xylitol or coconut sugar),"whiteners" (half and half, rice milk, almond milk etc.),cacao powder,cinnamon,nutmeg,natural flavoring like almond or vanilla, whatever your imagination comes up with), just as you would with coffee.Definitely recommended and worth giving a try!!!

I am a really picky person when it comes to coffee. REALLY picky, to the point that if I walk into a coffee shop and smell the beans, I already know if I am going to like the coffee or not. So, as you can tell I have had a lifetime of a caffeine habit. I am really seriously trying to cut back now, as I have noticed my heart racing after drinking coffee and I just know I need to cut back. I saw this and I was skeptical, but since its was available through prime I basically get to return just about anything with no strings attached which meant it was worth the risk. Well, I love it! Dandy blend is great. It does taste like cheap imported coffee in a can, which isn't the best coffee flavor, but as an iced drink it is perfect for me. I can officially stop drinking coffee after 3pm and still have something to make me feel energized without caffeine. I have been making mine as iced coffee with almond milk creamer (because I also have lactose intolerance) and I really do like it. I seriously recommend for anyone seriously trying to cut back on the coffee addiction. I will be buying more.

I found out after trying this as a morning beverage...that some of the ingredients are high in oxalate and/or histamine. I became ill with intestinal problems after drinking this. Most people are probably fine with using this coffee substitute; but bear in mind that dandelion has fairly potent effect on the body. More so for some people and less so for others. The taste of this was good...similar to weak coffee.

I have been searching for caffeine alternatives recently so I can stop drinking coffee again. I happened to get a YouTube video in my email from a vegan blogger I follow, Kristen Emily. Her video had me intrigued so I decided to order and try Dandy Blend. I have to say that she was not exaggerating how good it is. (She is not a paid spokesperson either.) I love it! This will be my morning coffee replacement from now on. It’s delicious with or without creamer. I tried it plain at first then added Silk Coconut Creamer. You can add sweetener too if you like your teas sweet. I haven’t tried it cold yet but I will definitely be doing that later on. I highly recommend trying this tea. I thoroughly enjoy it. I also read a review stating that the best storage is to keep the Dandy Blend package inside a large ziplock bag in the freezer because it is prone to gathering moisture and will turn into a solid block if it gets moisture in the bag. FYI. ;)

This is an instant powdered Dandelion tea drink. I was drinking roasted dandelion tea in the bag form, and then I came across this. I love love love it! Literally I'll have it at night almost every day of the week. It has a nutty, roasted flavor to it. Very slightly bitter. Tastes good with some almond milk and stevia and you can add more or less of the Dandy Blend to make the drink as strong as you want it.Some people use this to ween themselves off coffee. From a taste perspective, this doesn't really cut it (to me), but if you want to replace your coffee habit with tea, this is about as close as it's gonna get.The bonus is that dandelion root is great for your liver, and who's liver couldn't use a bit of love??As someone with severe gluten sensitivity, I can attest that this is gluten-free (despite the roasted barley that's in the blend). Hasn't ever bothered my ornery stomach.
